3) A certain reaction has the following general form: A + B à AB At a particular temperature the concentration versus time were

collected for this reaction, and a plot of ln[A]t versus time resulted in a straight line with a slope of −3.7 x 10−3 s−1. Show your math! (5 points) a. What is the order of the reaction? b. What is the rate constant (including units)? c. Calculate the half-life for the reaction. d. If the initial concentration of A is 0.250 M, what is the concentration after 220 seconds?

Answer:

a. First order.

b. k=3.7x10^{-3}s ^{-1}

c. t_{1/2}=187.3s

d. [A]=0.111M

Explanation:

Hello.

a. In this case since the slope is in s⁻¹ we can infer that the lineal form of the rate law is:

ln[A]=-kt+ln[A]_0

Which is also:

y=mx+b

It means that the reaction is first-order as slope equals the negative of the rate constant which also has units of first-oder reaction.

b. Since the slope is −3.7 x 10−3 s−1 the rate constant is:

k=-m\\\\k=-(-3.7x10^{-3}s ^{-1})\\\\k=3.7x10^{-3}s ^{-1}

c. For first-order reactions, the half-life is:

t_{1/2}=\frac{ln(2)}{k}\\ \\t_{1/2}=\frac{ln(2)}{3.7x10^{-3}s^{-1}}\\\\t_{1/2}=187.3s

d. In this case, since the integrated first-order rate law is:

[A]=[A]_0exp(-kt)

The concentration once 220 seconds have passed is:

[A]=0.250Mexp(-3.7x10^{-3}s^{-1}*220s)\\\\

[A]=0.111M

Regards.

This compound, an eight-carbon alkane, serves as the 100 octane standard for gasoline. It has five methyl groups, one quaternary
Reika [66]

Answer:

2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane

Explanation:

Structural characteristics of the compound is as follows:

  • Has five methyl group
  • Has one quaternary carbon
  • No. double bond
  • Gives four monochloro substitution products

Compound must have straight chain of 5 carbons.

Three methyl substituents are attached to 2 and 4 carbons.

Therefore, IUPAC name of the compound will be 2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane.

Answer:

An element

It stays shiny

Explanation:

Pure Gold is an element.

An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. Such substances consists of only one kind of atom.

There are over a hundred elements known to date.

As an element, Gold is classified as a metal due to its very unique set of properties.

One of the indicator that gold does not react with oxygen is that it stays shiny. It does not give rusty look when exposed to air.

Substances that combines with oxygen have a rusty look or change appearance when expose to air. For example, iron.

The half-cell is a chamber in the voltaic cell where one half-cell is the site of the oxidation reaction and the other half-cell
tankabanditka [31]

Explanation:

In a voltaic cell, oxidation reaction occurs at anode whereas reduction reaction occurs at the cathode.

Hence, the half-cell reaction taking place at anode and cathode will be as follows.

At anode (Oxidation) : Cr(s) \rightarrow Cr^{3+}(aq) + 3e^{-} ...... (1)

At cathode (Reduction) : Ag^{+}(aq) + 1e^{-} \rightarrow Ag(s)

So, in order to balance the half cell reactions, we multiply reduction reaction by 3. Hence, reduction reaction equation will be as follows.

              3Ag^{+}(aq) + 3e^{-} \rightarrow 3Ag(s)  ........ (2)

Therefore, overall reaction will be sum of equations as (1) + (2). Thus, net reaction equation is as follows.

      Cr(s) 3Ag^{+}(aq) \rightarrow Cr^{3+}(aq) + 3Ag(s)
