Why does a catalyst work for a long time before it needs replacing?

Chemistry
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago

Because the catalyst is not really part of the reaction. it is something that speed up a reaction by lowering the energy need for the reaction to take place. however, in the end the catalyst is brought back to its initial state. that's why it is long lasting

How long does it take for a 12.62g sample of ammonia to heat from 209K to 367K if heated at a constant rate of 6.0kj/min? The me
Georgia [21]
First, consider the steps to heat the sample from 209 K to 367K.

1) Heating in liquid state from 209 K to 239.82 K

2) Vaporaizing at 239.82 K

3) Heating in gaseous state from 239.82 K to 367 K.


Second, calculate the amount of heat required for each step.

1) Liquid heating

Ammonia = NH3 => molar mass = 14.0 g/mol + 3*1g/mol = 17g/mol

=> number of moles = 12.62 g / 17 g/mol = 0.742 mol

Heat1 = #moles * heat capacity * ΔT

Heat1 = 0.742 mol * 80.8 J/mol*K * (239.82K - 209K) = 1,847.77 J

2) Vaporization

Heat2 = # moles * H vap

Heat2 = 0.742 mol * 23.33 kJ/mol = 17.31 kJ = 17310 J

3) Vapor heating

Heat3 = #moles * heat capacity * ΔT

Heat3 = 0.742 mol * 35.06 J / (mol*K) * (367K - 239.82K) = 3,308.53 J

Third, add up the heats for every steps:

Total heat = 1,847.77 J + 17,310 J + 3,308.53 J = 22,466.3 J

Fourth, divide the total heat by the heat rate:

Time = 22,466.3 J / (6000.0 J/min) = 3.7 min

Answer: 3.7 min
