Manufacturing traditional clayware ceramics typically involves driving off the water of hydration in the clay minerals. The rate

constant for the dehydration of kaolinite, a common clay mineral, is 1×10−4s−1 at 485 ∘c and 1×10−3s−1 at 525 ∘c. Calculate the activation energy for the dehydration of kaolinite.

The relation between activation energy, rate constant and temperature is given by Arrhenius equation

Arrhenius equation is

ln (K2/ K1) = Ea / R (1/T1- 1/T2)

K2 =  1×10−3s−1  T2 =  525 ∘C = 798 K

K1 = 1×10−4s−1  T1 =  485 ∘c = 758 K

Ea = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J / mol K

ln (K2/ K1) = ln (10^-3 / 10^-4) = 2.303 = Ea /8 .314 (1/758 - 1 / 798)

2.303 = Ea / 8.314 (0.00132 - 0.00125)

Ea = 2.303 X 8.314 / (0.00132 - 0.00125)  = 273530.6 J / mole

Ea = activation energy = 273.531 kJ / mole

What is the mass in grams of 2.50 mol of ammonia vapor, NH3?
Crank

Molar mass:-

\\ \tt\longmapsto 14+3(1)=17g/mol

Now

\\ \tt\longmapsto Given\:mass=No\;of\:moles\times Molar\;mass

\\ \tt\longmapsto Given\:mass=17(2.5)

\\ \tt\longmapsto Given\:mass=42.5g

Develop a demonstration to show how mass is not the same thing as weight
pychu [463]

This is more of a physics explanation, but here we go.

Mass is a measure of how much "matter" is in an object. Weight is the force applied onto an object by gravity. Weight itself can be related to mass like this:

f_g = mg

where g is a gravitational constant. For our purposes, it's defined by whatever planet you are on. Following this, we can demonstrate that mass is NOT the same thing as weight if we take two objects of the same mass and put them on different planets.

Let E refer to Earth and F refer to Mars

g_E = 9.81 m/s^2\\g_F = 3.711 m/s^2

Following this, we can see clearly that weight is not the same as mass:

m*9.81 : m*3.711 \\\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx 9.81 \neq 3.711\\f_g E \neq f_g F\\

If weight was the same thing as mass, the two values would be the same, as the mass of the two objects is the same. But since weight is defined in the context of gravity, they are not.
