What is an example of how to supply activation energy to begin reaction

Chemistry

5 0

Heating the reaction flask on a hot plate is an example of supplying activation energy to begin a reaction.

Explanation:

<u>Definition:</u>

Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to start a particular chemical reaction.

For example: When hydrogen and oxygen are mixed together it does not immediately start the reaction to form water. So, to start the reaction a small electric spark is provided or it is heated to provide some energy. This energy causes the molecules of hydrogen and water to react, thus producing even more molecules to react and finally water is formed.

Here the electric spark or the heat provided is the activation energy.

A buffer consists of 0.45 M CH3COOH (acetic acid) and 0.35 M CH3COONa. The Ka of acetic acid is 1.8 x 10-5 . a) Calculate the pH
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A) pH of Buffer solution = 4.59

B) pH after 5.0 ml of 2.0 M NaOH have been added to 400 ml of the original    buffer solution = 4.65

Explanation:

This  is the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:

 pH = pKa + log\frac{[conjugate base]}{[acid]}

to calculate the pH of the following Buffer solutions.

Which of these is an isoelectronic series? 1) na+, k+, rb+, cs+ 2) k+, ca2+, or, s2– 3) na+, mg2+, s2–, cl– 4) li, be, b, c 5) n
ss7ja [257]
An isoelectronic series is where all of the ions listed have the same number of electrons in their atoms. When an atom has net charge of zero or neutral, it has equal number of protons and electrons. Hence, it means that the atomic number = no. of protons = no. of electrons. If these atoms become ions, they gain a net charge of + or -. Positive ions are cations. This means that they readily GIVE UP electrons, whereas negative ions (anions) readily ACCEPT electrons. So, to know which of these are isoelectronic, let's establish first the number of electron in a neutral atom from the periodic table:

Na=11; K=19; Rb=37; Cs = 55; Ca=20; S=16; Mg=12; Li=3; Be=4; B=5; C=6

A. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
     K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
     Rb⁺: 37-1 = 36 electrons

B. K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
    Ca²⁺: 20 - 2 = 18 electrons
    S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

C. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
    Mg²⁺: 12 - 2 = 10 electrons
     S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

D. Li=3 electrons
    Be=4 electrons
    B=5 electrons
    C=6 electrons

The answer is letter B.
