Dinitrogen tetraoxide, N2O4, decomposes to nitrogen dioxide, NO2, in a first-order process. If k = 1.5 x 103 s-1 at 5 ºC and k =

Answer:

The activation energy for the decomposition = 33813.28 J/mol

Explanation:

Using the expression,

\ln \dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} =-\dfrac{E_{a}}{R} \left (\dfrac{1}{T_1}-\dfrac{1}{T_2} \right )

Wherem  

k_1\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_1

k_2\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_2

E_a is the activation energy

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314 J / K mol  

Thus, given that, E_a = ?

k_2=4.0\times 10^3s^{-1}

k_1=1.5\times 10^3s^{-1}  

T_1=5\ ^0C  

T_2=25\ ^0C  

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (5 + 273.15) K = 278.15 K  

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K  

T_1=278.15\ K

T_2=298.15\ K

So,

\ln \frac{1.5\times 10^3}{4.0\times 10^3}\:=-\frac{E_{a}}{8.314}\times \left(\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)

E_a=-\ln \frac{1.5\times \:10^3}{4.0\times \:10^3}\:\times \frac{8.314}{\left(\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}\right)}

E_a=-\frac{8.314\ln \left(\frac{1.5\times \:10^3}{4\times \:10^3}\right)}{\frac{1}{278.15}-\frac{1}{298.15}}

E_a=-\frac{689483.53266 \ln \left(\frac{1.5}{4}\right)}{20}

E_a=33813.28\ J/mol

<u>The activation energy for the decomposition = 33813.28 J/mol</u>

Answer:

The freshwater sources that are generally in continuous motion and follow a defined path are called streams and rivers.

If I were to improve the lab then I will make the following changes:

  • The experiment aimed to observe and model the effects of rivers on erosion. So, I can make a virtual model of the river and can compare the velocity, gradients and volume of rivers.
  • Comparison between the low and high factors listed can help in computing the effect of the powerful river on erosion.
  • The high velocity. gradient and volume of the river will cause more erosion as it exerts more force.
  • The low volume, gradient and velocity river will affect in a less manner on erosion.

thats all i know ( correct me if im wrong please)

When waves act together, you talk about "interference". When they reinforce each other, it is "constructive interference". When they cancel each other, it is "destructive interference".

Plz i wanna those answers click on the photo to see all the question they are 2 queastions part A and B
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

a.

Turn paper Blue - these are alkaline/ base substances.

  • Toothpaste
  • Soap
  • Bleach

Turn paper Red - these substances are acidic in nature.

  • Lemon Juice
  • Vinegar
  • Cola drink

b. i. A wasp sting - Lemon juice

ii. A bee sting - Toothpaste

iii. A wasp sting is alkaline which means that running an acidic substance like lemon or lemon juice on it should neutralize it.

A bee sting is acidic so an alkaline substance such as toothpaste should neutralize it as well.
