What is the purpose of a catalyst?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Artyom0805 [142]3 years ago

Answer: A. To change the potential energy of the reactants.

Explanation:
Catalysts make such a breaking and rebuilding happen more efficiently. They do this by lowering the activation energy for the chemical reaction. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed to allow the chemical reaction to occur. The catalyst just changes the path to the new chemical partnership.

How many grams of nacl are in 250 g of a 15.0% (by weight) solution?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: -

37.5 g of NaCl are in 250 g of a 15.0% (by weight) solution.

Explanation: -

Total mass = 250 g

Percentage of NaCl = 15.0 %

= \frac{Number of grams of NaCl present}{total mass}

Thus \frac{15}{100} = \frac{Number of grams of NaCl present}{250g}

Number of grams of NaCl present = \frac{15 x 250g}{100}

= 37.5 g

How long does it take electrons to get from the car battery to the starting motor? Assume the current is 137 A and the electrons
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

t = 55.79 min

Explanation:

First, the problem is asking for calculate the time that it takes electrons from the battery to the motor.

The general formula to calculate time is:

<em>t = d/V (1)</em>

Where:

d: distance or length

V: speed

Now, we don't have data of speed, but we can know an expression of current density in function of the distance which is the following:

<em>J = n*q*V (2)</em>

Where:

q: charge of the particle (1.6x10^-19 C)

n: number of charge carriers per unit of volume

Current density (J) is actually current per Area so:

<em>J = I/A (3)</em>

Replacing (3) in (2) we have:

I/A = nqV

Solving for V:

<em>V = I/Anq (4)</em>

Finally, if we replace this expression in (1) we have:

<em>t = nqAd / I (5)</em>

Now, the value of n, it's not given but it can be calculated because we have mass density, molar mass and avogadro's number, so this value of "n" can be calculated using the following expression:

<em>n = D * Av / MM (6)</em>

Where:

D: mass density (kg/m³)

Av: avogadro number (6.02x10^23 atom/mol)

MM: molar mass (kg/mol)

Putting the data that we know to calculate n we have:

n = 8960 * 6.02x10^23 / 0.0635

n = 8.49x10^28 atom/m³

Now with the value of n, we can finally calculate the time:

<em>t = nqAd / I </em>

A is the area and it should be in m²: 44.6 mm² / 1x10^6 m = 4.46x10^-5 m²

d is the length in meter: 75.7 cm / 100 cm/m = 0.757 m

so replacing these data in (5):

t = 8.49x10^28 * 1.6x10^-19 * 4.46x10^-5 * 0.757 / 137

t = 3,347.63 s

But the answer is in minute so:

t = 3,347.63 / 60

<em>t = 55.79 min</em>

so the electrons takes 56 min aprox. to go from the car battery to the starting motor.

When ammonium phosphate and nickel(ii) nitrate solutions are mixed, what precipitates out?
Sphinxa [80]

2(NH4)3PO4 (aq) + 3Ni(NO3)2(aq) ------> Ni3(PO4)2(s) + 6NH4NO3 (aq)

Ni3(PO4)2 is a precipitate.
