Answer:

  • <em><u>Step 2 (the slow step).</u></em>

Explanation:

The rate-determining step is always the slow step of a mechanism.

That is so, because it is the slow step which limits the reaction.

Imaging that for assembling a toy you have process of three steps:

  • 1. order ten pieces, which you can do in 1 minute: meaning that you can order order the pieces for 60/1 = 60 toys in 1 hour.

  • 2. glue the pieces and hold the toy until the glue hardens, which takes 1 hour: meaning finishingh 1 toy in 1 hour.

  • 3. pack the toy, which takes 2 minutes: meaning that you can pack 60/2 = 30 toys in one hour.

The time to glue and hold one toy until the glue hardens determines that you can assemble 1 toy in 1 hour and not 60 toys or 30 toys.

Thus, the step that determines the rate at which the reaction happens is the slowest step: step 2.

Answer:

Ka2 values should be used in obtaining pKa2 in the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation

Explanation:

During first dissociation from H3PO4 to H2PO4-, ka1 will be used, and from H2PO4-to HPO4-, ka2 values will be used, hence a buffer solution containing H2PO4-and HPO4-will use ka2 in obtaining pKa2 in the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation.

Question 1<br>How many atoms are there in 0.3 mol of<br>sodium? [L = 6.02 x 102 mot')​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<h2>1.806 × 10²³ atoms</h2>

Explanation:

The number of sodium atoms can be found by using the formula

<h3>N = n × L</h3>

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 0.3 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.806 × 10²³ atoms</h3>

Hope this helps you

How does the atomic radius change going down and across the periodic table?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

In general, atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down a group. Across a period, effective nuclear charge increases as electron shielding remains constant.
