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

In a solution with a pH of 4, the [OH-] is:<br>1x 10-10<br>1x 10-4<br>10<br>- 1x 10-8<br>​
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

1 x 10^-4

Explanation:

Use the equation pH = -log[OH-}

Rearranging it [OH-] = 10^-pH

Plugging in we get [OH-] = 1 x 10^-4

What do atoms form when they bond chemically?
V125BC [204]
They form molecules which can be in solution form if diluted in water, but some do form solutions on exposure to the atmosphere i.e they are deliquescent like pellets of sodium hydroxide

The atomic weight of boron is reported as 10.81, yet no atom of boron has the mass of 10.81 amu. explain
aivan3 [116]
<span>Boron has a lot of different isotopes, most of which having a very short half life (ranging from 770 milliseconds for Boron-8 down to 150 yoctoseconds for boron-7). But the two isotopes Boron-10 and Boron-11 are stable with about 80.1% of the naturally occurring boron being boron-11 and the remaining 19.9% being boron-10. The weighted average weight of those 2 isotopes has the value of 10.81. The reason they use the average mass of an element for it's atomic weight is because elements in nature are rarely single isotopes. The weighted average allows us to easily compare relative number of atoms of one element against relative numbers of atoms of another element assuming that the experimenters are getting isotope ratios close to their natural ratios.</span>

A 15.0 L tank of gas is contained at a high pressure of 8.20 x 10^4 torr. The tank is opened and the gas expands into an empty c
Inga [223]

Answer:

20.5torr

Explanation:

Given parameters:

V₁  = 15L

P₁  = 8.2 x 10⁴torr

V₂ = 6 x 10⁴L

Unknown:

P₂  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we have to apply the claims of Boyle's law.

Boyle's law is given mathematically as;

            P₁ V₁   = P₂V₂

where P₁ is the initial pressure

          V₁ is the initial volume

           P₂ is final pressure

           V₂ is final volume

   8.2 x 10⁴  x 15  = P₂  x 6 x 10⁴

         P₂  = 20.5torr
