Answer:

B. <u><em>At the end of the reaction, both product and reactants are of a constant concentration.</em></u>

Explanation:

  • Option A and C are similar as they both refer to constant concentration of product and reactant respectively in first half. As in the graph, the concentration of reactant and product changes (concentration of reactant decreases and concentration of product increase) with time in the <em>first half</em>^{*} of the reaction. This made both A and C option wrong.
  • Option D is also wrong as at the <em>end of reaction</em>^{**} the line of concentration of product and reactant do not coincide which means they are not equal.
  • Option B is correct as we take the end of reaction at the point where the concentration of reactant and product won't change much or become constant

^{*}<u><em>first half</em></u> time is the when concentration of reactant reduces to 50% of initial concentration which you can nearly assume on or before the point of intersection of both the concentration graphs.

^{**}<u><em>end of reaction</em></u><em> </em>is the time when the reaction completes which is theoretically infinite but generally we take end of the reaction as the time when the slope of concentration curve becomes nearly zero or the time when change in concentration of reactant and product is negligible.

How many grams are in 2.5 moles of Carbon
Jet001 [13]
According to the periodic table, carbon's molar mass is 12.011 grams per mole (that's the small number under the element).  So, just multiply like this to get the answer:

(2.5\ mol\ C)(\frac{grams\ C}{12.011\ mol\ C})=0.20814\ g\ C

So, there are approximately 0.208 grams in 2.5 moles of carbon.

A 1.555-g sample of baking soda decomposes with heat to produce 0.991 g Na2CO3. Refer to Example Exercise 14.l and show the calc
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

a) 101%

b)59.7%

Explanation:

The equation for the thermal decomposition of baking soda is shown;

2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

Number of moles of baking soda= mass/molar mass= 1.555g/84.007 g/mol = 0.0185 moles

From the reaction equation;

2 moles of baking soda yields 1 mole of sodium carbonate

0.0185 moles of baking soda will yield = 0.0185 moles ×1 /2 = 9.25 ×10^-3 moles of sodium carbonate.

Therefore, mass of sodium carbonate= 9.25 ×10^-3 moles × 106gmol-1= 0.9805 g of sodium carbonate. This is the theoretical yield of sodium carbonate.

%yield = actual yield/theoretical yield ×100

% yield = 0.991/0.9805 ×100

%yield = 101%

Since ;

2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

And H2O + CO2 ---> H2CO3

Hence I can write, 2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2CO3

Molar mass of H2CO3= 62.03 gmol-1

Molar mass of baking soda= 84 gmol-1

Therefore, mass of baking soda=

0.325/62.03 × 2 × 84 = 0.88 g of NaHCO3

% of NaHCO3= 0.88/1.473 × 100 = 59.7%

The (triangle)Hrxn of formation of carbon dioxide is negative. Which statement is true? The reaction is endothermic. The reactio
ANEK [815]
The negative ion reactions that consist of the formation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is generally an exothermic reaction. By definition, an exothermic reaction takes place when the chemical process eventually releases heat as its by-product. It is in contrast in endothermic process wherein heat is absorbed.
