<u>Answer:</u> The rate law for the overall reaction is \text{Rate}=k[Cl_2]^{1/2}[CCl_4][CHCl_3][CCl_3]^{-1}

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a mechanism of the reaction, the slow step in the mechanism determines the rate of the reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

Cl_2(g)+CHCl_3(g)\rightarrow HCl(g)+CCl_4(g)

The intermediate reaction of the mechanism follows:

<u>Step 1:</u>  Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2Cl(g);\text{ (very fast)}

<u>Step 2:</u>  Cl(g)+CHCl_3(g)\rightarrow HCl(g)+CCl_3(g);\text{ (slow)}

<u>Step 3:</u>  Cl(g)+CCl_3(g)\rightarrow CCl_4(g);\text{ (fast)}

As, step 2 is the slow step. It is the rate determining step.

Rate law for the reaction follows:

\text{Rate}=K_2[Cl][CHCl_3]           ......(1)

As, [Cl] is not appearing as a reactant in the overall reaction. So, we apply steady state approximation in it.

Applying steady state approximation for Cl from step 1 and step 3, we get:

K_1=\frac{[Cl]^2}{[Cl_2]}

[Cl]=\sqrt{K_1[Cl_2]}

K_3=\frac{[CCl_4]}{[Cl][CCl_3]}

[Cl]=\frac{[CCl_4]}{K_3[CCl_3]}  

Putting the value of [Cl] in equation 1, we get:  

\text{Rate}=K_2\times \sqrt{K_1[Cl_2]}\times \frac{[CCl_4]}{K_3[CCl_3]}\times [CHCl_3]\\\\\text{Rate}=k[Cl_2]^{1/2}[CCl_4][CHCl_3][CCl_3]^{-1}

Hence, the rate law for the overall reaction is \text{Rate}=k[Cl_2]^{1/2}[CCl_4][CHCl_3][CCl_3]^{-1}

Cierto elemento presenta dos isótopos cuyos números de masa suman 110 y cuyos números de neutrones suman 58 ¿Cuál es el número a
Anettt [7]

Answer:

El número atómico de cada uno de los átomos es 26

Explanation:

El número de masa es la suma de las masas del protón y el neutrón de un átomo.

El número atómico es el número de protones en el átomo.

Los parámetros dados son;

La suma del número másico de ambos átomos = 110

La suma de los neutrones = 58

Por lo tanto, sea el número de protones y neutrones en un isótopo = P₁ y N₁ y el número de protones y neutrones en el otro isótopo = P₂ y N₂

Tenemos;

 P₁ + N₁ + P₂ + N₂ = 110

N₁ + N₂ = 58

Por lo tanto;

P₁ + P₂ = 110 - (N₁ + N₂)

P₁ + P₂ = 110 - 58 = 52

Dado que los isótopos son del mismo elemento, sus protones serán iguales, por lo tanto;

P₁ = P₂

P₁ + P₂ = P₁ + P₁ = 2 × P₁

P₁ + P₂ = 52

2 × P₁ = 52

P₁ = 52/2 = 26 = P₂

El número atómico de ambos átomos es el número de protones en el átomo que es 26.

El número atómico del elemento del átomo es 26

What are some factors that might cause our percent yield to be greater than 100%? What are some factors that might cause it to b
belka [17]
<span>In the field of science, usually, the product of an experiment is computed ahead to understand if it reached a specific objective. It would reach greater than 100% of percent yield if the factors include faster reaction rates; proper handling of the reactants, no outside contaminants, and the procedure of the experiment is followed smoothly. It would reach lesser than 100% percent yield if the experiment is not followed, external factors such as contamination from the environment (wind, moisture, etc). </span>

2. A sample of gas has a pressure of 195 kPa and a volume of 3.50 L. If the pressure
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

<h2>4.55 L</h2>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we're finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

We have

V_2 =  \frac{195000 \times 3.5}{150000}  =  \frac{682500}{150000}  \\  = 4.55

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.55 L</h3>

Hope this helps you

Can someone please help me on the second one? I have no idea what to do.
Aleks [24]

The reaction will produce 12.1 g Ag₂S.

<em>Balanced equation</em> = 2Ag + S ⟶ Ag₂S

<em>Mass of Ag₂S</em> = 10.5 g Ag × (1 mol Ag/107.87 g Ag) × (1 mol Ag₂S/2 mol Ag)

× (247.80 g Ag₂S/1 mol Ag₂S) = 12.1 g Ag₂S

A container of gas has a volume of 280 mL at a temperature of 22 Celsius if the pressure remains constant what is the volume 44
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

300.9mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

V₁  = 280mL

T₁ = 22°C

T₂  = 44°C

Unknown:

V₂ = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply Charles's law;

  it is mathematically expressed as;

            \frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} }  = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }

We need to convert the temperature to kelvin;

       T₁ = 22°C = 22 + 273 = 295K

       T₂  = 44°C = 44 + 273  = 317K

Input the parameters and solve;

        \frac{280}{295}   = \frac{V_{2} }{317}

  V₂ x 295 = 280 x 317

  V₂ = 300.9mL
