Answer:

a) r = 4.82x10⁻³*[N2O5]

b) 1.16x10⁻⁴ M/s

c) The rate is doubled too (2.32x10⁻⁴ M/s)

d) The rate is halved too (5.78x10⁻⁴ M/s)

Explanation:

a) The rate law of a generic reaction (A + B → C + D) can be expressed by:

r = k*[A]ᵃ*[B]ᵇ

Where k is the rate constant, [X] is the concentration of the compound X, and a and b are the coefficients of the reaction (which can be different from the ones of the chemical equation).

In this case, there is only one reactant, and the reaction is first order, which means that a = 1. So, the rate law is:

r = k*[N2O5]

r = 4.82x10⁻³*[N2O5]

b) Substituing the value of the concentration in the rate law:

r = 4.82x10⁻³*0.0240

r = 1.16x10⁻⁴ M/s

c) When [N2O5] = 0.0480 M,

r = 4.82x10⁻³*0.0480

r = 2.32x10⁻⁴ M/s

So, the rate is doubled too.

d) When [N2O5] = 0.0120 M,

r = 4.82x10⁻³*0.0120

r = 5.78x10⁻⁴ M/s

So, the rate is halved too.

Answer:

(a) rate =  4.82 x 10⁻³s⁻¹  [N2O5]

(b) rate =   1.16 x 10⁻⁴  M/s

(c) rate =   2.32 x 10⁻⁴ M/s

(d) rate =   5.80 x 10⁻⁵ M/s

Explanation:  

We are told the rate law is first order in N₂O₅, and its rate constant is 4.82 x 10⁻³s⁻¹ . This means the rate is proportional to the molar concentration   of   N₂O₅, so

(a) rate = k [N2O5] = 4.82 x 10⁻³s⁻¹ x [N2O5]

(b) rate = 4.82×10⁻³s⁻¹  x 0.0240 M =  1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s

(c) Since the reaction is first order if the concentration of  N₂O₅ is double the rate will double too:  2 x   1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s = 2.32 x 10⁻⁴ M/s

(d) Again since the reaction is halved to 0.0120 M, the rate will be halved to

1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s / 2 =  5.80 x 10⁻⁵ M/s

All of the statements describe hydrogen bonds EXCEPT: a. Hydrogen bonds account for the anomalously high boiling point of water.
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct option is e

Explanation:

Hydrogen bond is an intermolecular interaction/bonding that are formed between an electronegative atom (such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine) and a hydrogen atom. They are weak intermolecular bonds compared to covalent bonds but account for the high boiling point of water because of the strong hydrogen bond presence between the water molecules. Water molecules form hydrogen bonds between each other; since an oxygen atom (in a water molecule) has two lone pairs on it's outermost shell, it forms an hydrogen bond with two hydrogen atoms of other water molecule. Due to the fluidity of liquid water molecules, hydrogen bonds keep getting broken (although recreated/formed almost immediately), hence, individual hydrogen bonds in liquid water does not exist for long.

In the explanation above, it was stated that the strength of the hydrogen bond in water is the reason for it's high boiling point. The atoms in a water molecule are bent NOT linear hence the strength of hydrogen bond does not depend on the linearity of the atoms involved in the bond.

The intensity of a sound describes
baherus [9]
The intensity of a sound describes <em>its loudness at a particular distance</em><em />

Sound intensity is factored by the ear's sensitivity to the particular frequencies contained in a sound

Sound loudness describes the strength of the ear's perception of a sound.

These two points being said, if the ear is more sensitive to a frequency, that sound will be louder to us than sounds at different frequencies that might not be as sensitive to our ears. <em>So, the more intense the sound, the louder it is ;)</em>

Thank you for your question! I hope this helped! Have an amazing day! :D
