19. Which of the following best describes the role of the spark from the spark plug in an automobile engine?
sergey [27]

The role of a spark plug is to supply some of the energy of activation for the combustion reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • A Spark plug is a tiny bolt of lightning in which a spark of electricity is emitted across a gap creating the ignition of the combustion chamber thereby starting the engine. By putting an engine piston in motion we can power up which produces a smooth burn of the compressed air-fuel mixture.
  • An electrical device that fits into the cylinder head and ignites compressed aerosol gasoline by an electric spark. They have an insulated electrode connected to a coil that ignites thereby producing sparks.
  • The spark plug works as a heat exchanger. They tend to pull unwanted thermal energy from the combustion chamber and heat is transferred to the engine's cooling system. Thus they supply some of the energy for the activation of engines.

Which scientist performed the cathode ray experiment leading to the discovery of electrons
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The scientist that performed the cathode ray experiment leading to the discovery of electrons is J.J. Thomson.

<h3>What is a cathode ray?</h3>

A cathode ray is a tube that contains negatively charged electrode( that is the cathode) which emits electrons when heated at a low pressure.

The cathode ray was used by the scientist, J.J. Thomson to find the ratio of charge to mass (e/m) of the electrons.

Therefore, the scientist that performed the cathode ray experiment leading to the discovery of electrons is J.J. Thomson.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The concentration of BC_2 that should used originally is C_Z_o = 0.4492M

Explanation:

     From the question we are told that

         The necessary elementary step is  

                  2BC_2 ----->4C + B_2

          The  time taken for sixth of 0.5 M of reactant to react t = 9 hr

           The time available is t_a = 3.5 hr

             The desired concentration to  remain C  = 0.42M

Let Z be the reactant ,   Y be the first product and X the second product

Generally the elementary rate  law is mathematically as

                    -r_Z = kC_Z^2 = - \frac{d C_Z}{dt}

Where k is the rate constant ,  C_Z is the concentration of Z

From the elementary rate law we see that the reaction is second order (This because the concentration of the reactant is raised to power 2 )

 For second  order reaction

            \frac{1}{C_Z}  - \frac{1}{C_Z_o}  = kt

Where C_Z_o is the initial concentration of Z which a value of   C_Z_o = 0.5M

       From the question we are told that it take  9 hours  for the concentration of  the reactant to become

                 C_Z =  C_Z_o - \frac{1}{6}  C_Z_o

                  C_Z = 0.5  - \frac{0.5}{6}

                       = 0.4167 M

So      

                     \frac{1}{0.4167}  - \frac{1}{0.50}  =  9 k

                          0.400 = 9 k

                =>    k = 0.044\  L/ mol \cdot hr^{-1}

  For   C_Z = 0.42M

                \frac{1}{0.42} - \frac{1}{C_Z_o}  = 3.5 * 0.044

                2.38 -  0.154  =    \frac{1}{C_Z_o}

                           2.226  =    \frac{1}{C_Z_o}

                            C_Z_o = \frac{1}{2.226}

                             C_Z_o = 0.4492M
