Answer:

Catalyst is referred to as the substance used in the reaction to speed up or to increase the efficiency of the reaction. the catalyst itself does not alter any change during the reaction. As catalyst itself is not the reactant or product thus it does not appear in a chemical reaction

Explanation:

Catalyst is referred to as the substance used in the reaction to speed up or to increase the efficiency of the reaction. the catalyst itself does not alter any change during the reaction. As catalyst itself is not the reactant or product thus it does not appear in a chemical reaction

In a chemical reaction, the catalyst is used to decrease the activation energy thus to provide or enhance the reaction mechanism to the reaction.

If have a volume of 18 L of a gas at a temperature of 272 K and a pressure of 90 atm, what will be the pressure of the gas if ra
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

P₂ ≅ 100 atm (1 sig. fig. based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm)

Explanation:

Given:

P₁ = 90 atm                    P₂ = ?

V₁ = 18 Liters(L)              L₂ = 12 Liters(L)      

=> decrease volume => increase pressure

=> volume ratio that will increase 90 atm is (18L/12L)                                                                  

T₁ = 272 Kelvin(K)          T₂ = 274 Kelvin(K)

=>  increase temperature => increase pressure

=> temperature ratio that will increase 90 atm is (274K/272K)

n₁ = moles = constant    n₂ = n₁ = constant

P₂ = 90 atm x (18L/12L) x (274K/272K) = 135.9926471 atm (calculator)

By rule of sig. figs., the final answer should be rounded to an accuracy equal to the 'measured' data value having the least number of sig. figs. This means P₂ ≅ 100 atm based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm.

HELP FAST 100 PTSCalculate the amount of heat needed to convert 100.0 g of liquid water at 25 °C to water at 100 °C.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

31,380 Joules

Explanation:

Given Data:

Mass = m = 100 g

Temperature 1 = = 25 °C

Temperature 2 = = 100 °C

Specific Heat Constant = c = 4.184

Change in Temp. = ΔT = 100 - 25 = 75 °C

Required:

Heat = Q = ?

Formula:

Q = mcΔT

Solution:

Q = (100)(4.184)(75)

Q = 31, 380 Joules

Hope this helped!
