Answer:
The air molecules that are surrounding the metal will speed up, and the molecules in the metal will slow down.
Explanation:
There will be a transfer of thermal energy (heat) from the hot metal plate to the surrounding air. This transfer of energy equates to a transfer of kinetic energy in the molecules. As the plate loses heat, the molecules in the plate will lose kinetic energy and slow down. As the surrounding air gains heat, the molecules will gain kinetic energy and speed up.
Following reaction is involved in above system
HOCl(aq) ↔ H+(aq) + OCl-<span>(aq)
</span>OCl-(aq) + H2O(l) ↔ HOCl(aq) + OH-<span>(aq)
</span>
Now, if the system is obeys 1st order kinetics we have
K = [OCl-][H+<span>]/[HOCl] ............. (1)
</span>∴ [HOCl-] / [OCl-] = [H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>) ............. (2)
</span>
and now considering that system is obeying 2nd order kinetics, we have
K = [OH-][HOCl-] / [OCl-] ................. (3<span>)
</span>Subs 2 in 3 we get
K = [OH-][H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)
</span>we know that, [OH-][H+] = 10<span>-14
</span>∴K = 3.3 * 10<span>-7
</span>
Thus, correct answer is e i.e none of these
