The activation energy for the reaction NO2(g)+CO(g)⟶NO(g)+CO2(g) is Ea = 375 kJ/mol and the change in enthalpy for the reaction

is ΔH = -250 kJ/mol . What is the activation energy for the reverse reaction?

Answer: 625 kj/mol

Explanation:

As shown below this expression gives the activation energy of the reverse reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

1) The activation energy, EA is the difference between the potential energies of the reactants and the transition state:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of the reactants.

2) The activation energy of the forward reaction given is:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of  [ NO2(g) + CO(g) ] = 75 kj/mol

3) The negative enthalpy change - 250 kj / mol for the forward reaction means that the products are below in the potential energy diagram, and that the potential energy of the products, [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] is equal to 375 kj / mol - 250 kj / mol = 125 kj/mol

4) For the reverse reaction the reactants are [NO(g) + CO2(g)], and the transition state is the same than that for the forward reaction.

5) The difference of energy between the transition state and the potential energy of [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] will be the absolute value of the change of enthalpy plus the activation energy for the forward reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

EA reverse reaction = 375 kj / mol + |-250 kj/mol | = 375 kj/mol + 250 kj/mol = 625 kj/mol.

And that is the answer, 625 kj/mol

32. Mercury has an atomic mass of 200.59 amu. Calculate the a. Mass of 3.0 x 1023 atoms. b. Number of atoms in one nanogram of M
Radda [10]

a.200.59 amu of mercury contains = 6.02 * 1023 molecules

Mass for 3.0 * 1023 molecules = (3.0 * 1023 * 200.59) /6.02 * 1023

= 100.29 amu

Thus, mass for 3.0 * 1023 molecules is 100.29 amu

b.As, 200.59 g mercury contains = 6.02 * 1023 atoms

1 g mercury contains = (6.02 * 1023 /200) atoms

= 3.01 * 1021 atoms

Thus, 1 ng mercury contains = (3.01 * 1021) / 109

= 3.01 * 1012 atoms

Thus, 3.0 * 1012 atoms present in 1 ng mercury

In the silver recovery lab you will be doing chemical reactions and forming solid ionic compounds from their soluble ions. this
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

1. CrCl₃     2. MnO₂     3. MgCO₃

Explanation:

For a compound to be neutral, we need the same number of positive charges and negative charges.

1. Cr³⁺ ions and Cl⁻ ions. We will need 1 Cr³⁺ cation and 3 Cl⁻ anions. The chemical formula is CrCl₃.

2. Mn⁴⁺ ions and O²⁻ ions. We will need 1 Mn⁴⁺ cation and 2 O²⁻ anions. The chemical formula is MnO₂.

3. Mg²⁺ ions and CO₃²⁻ ions. We will need 1 Mg²⁺ cation and 1 CO₃²⁻ anion The chemical formula is MgCO₃.
