Answer:

A physical property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance. Physical properties include color, density, hardness, and melting and boiling points. A chemical property describes the ability of a substance to undergo a specific chemical change.

Determine the correct Lewis structure for ammonia (NH3). Note: Hydrogen and nitrogen have one and five valence electrons respect

Tresset [83]

The lewis structure is helpful in showing how the bonding between atoms of a molecule are. The lewis structure of ammonia would be that the nitrogen atom will share three pairs of electron with the three hydrogen atoms leaving nitrogen to have 1 lone pair.<span />

The activation energy for a reaction is changed from 184 kJ/mol to 59.0 kJ/mol at 600. K by the introduction of a catalyst. If t

Answer:

The catalyzed reaction will take 2.85 seconds to occur.

Explanation:

The activation energy of a reaction is given by:

$k = Ae^{-\frac{E_{a}}{RT}}$

For the reaction without catalyst we have:

$k_{1} = Ae^{-\frac{E_{a_{1}}}{RT}}$ (1)

And for the reaction with the catalyst:

$k_{2} = Ae^{-\frac{E_{a_{2}}}{RT}}$ (2)

Assuming that frequency factor (A) and the temperature (T) are constant, by dividing equation (1) with equation (2) we have:

$\frac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} = \frac{Ae^{-\frac{E_{a_{1}}}{RT}}}{Ae^{-\frac{E_{a_{2}}}{RT}}}$

$\frac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} = e^{\frac{E_{a_{2}} - E_{a_{1}}}{RT}$

$\frac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} = e^{\frac{59.0 \cdot 10^{3}J/mol - 184 \cdot 10^{3} J/mol}{8.314 J/Kmol*600 K} = 1.31 \cdot 10^{-11}$

Since the reaction rate is related to the time as follow:

$k = \frac{\Delta [R]}{t}$

And assuming that the initial concentrations ([R]) are the same, we have:

$\frac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} = \frac{\Delta [R]/t_{1}}{\Delta [R]/t_{2}}$

$\frac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} = \frac{t_{2}}{t_{1}}$

$t_{2} = t_{1}\frac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} = 6900 y*1.31 \cdot 10^{-11} = 9.04 \cdot 10^{-8} y*\frac{365 d}{1 y}*\frac{24 h}{1 d}*\frac{3600 s}{1 h} = 2.85 s$

Therefore, the catalyzed reaction will take 2.85 seconds to occur.

I hope it helps you!
