The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The thermal decomposition of phosphine (PH3) into phosphorus and molecular hydrogen is a first-order reaction: 4PH_3(g)\rightarrow P_4(g)+6H_2(g) The half-life of the reaction is 35.0 s at 680°C. Calculate the first order rate constant.

Answer: a) The first order rate constant is 0.0198s^{-1}

b) The time after which 95% reactions gets completed is 151 seconds

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) for finding the rate constant

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{35.0s}=0.0198s^{-1}

The first order rate constant is 0.0198s^{-1}

b) for completion of 95 % of reaction

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{100}{100-95}

t=\frac{2.303}{0.0198}\log\frac{100}{5}

t=151 s

The time after which 95% reactions gets completed is 151 seconds

Calculate the χacetone and χcyclohexane in the vapor above the solution. p°acetone = 229.5 torr and p°cyclohexane = 97.6 torr.
Ulleksa [173]
First calculate the mole fraction of each substance:
Acetone: 2.88 mol ÷ (2.88 mol + 1.45 mol) = 0.665
Cyclohexane: 1.45 ÷ (2.88 mol + 1.45 mol) = 0.335
Raoult's Law: P(total) = P(acetone) · χ(acetone)  + P(cyclohexane) · χ(cyclohexane).
P(total) = 229.5 torr · 0.665 + 97.6 torr · 0.335
P(total) = 185.3 torr
χ for acetone: 229.5 torr · 0.665 ÷ 185.3 torr = 0.823 
χ for cyclohexane:  97.6 torr · 0.335 ÷ 185.3 torr = 0.177

What would be the minimum energy Emin required to excite a hydrogen atom from its lowest energy level
Wewaii [24]

The minimum energy required to excite a hydrogen atom from its lowest energy level is 10.2 eV.

<h3>What is excitation?</h3>

The term excitation has to do with the promotion of an electron from a lower to a higher energy level.

In this case, we are dealing with the hydrogen atom having only one electron. Thus, the minimum energy required to excite a hydrogen atom from its lowest energy level is 10.2 eV.

A 0.590 gram sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to:M(s) +H2SO4(aq) --&gt; MSO4(aq) +H2(g)A vol
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

MM = 58.41 g

Explanation:

First, the data we have is according to the hydrogen which is exerting pressure. To solve this, we need to use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT (1)

the molar mass of any compound is calculated like this:

MM = m/n (2)

So, from (1) we solve for the moles (n) and then, this value is replace in (2).

However, before we do all that, we need to gather all the correct data.

All the species in the reaction are solid or aqueous state, with the exception of hydrogen, which is gaseous. Hydrogen is collected over water, therefore, is exerting some pressure too. The problem is not indicating if the acid or any other species is exerting pressure, so we will assume that only hydrogen and water are exerting pressure.

The total pressure exerted by the system would be:

P = Pw + PH2 (3)

We already know the total pressure which is 756 torr.

This experiment is taking place at 25 °C (298.15 K), and at this temperature, we have a reported value for water pressure which is 23.8 Torr.

Let's solve for PH2:

PH2 = P - Pw

PH2 = 756 - 23 = 733 Torr

Now, with this value, and the volume and temperature, we can calculate the moles of H2:

n = PV/RT

But first, let's convert the pressure to atm:

PH2 = 733 Torr / 760 torr * 1 atm = 0.9644 atm

now, solving for n:

n = 0.9644 * (0.255) / 0.082 * 298.15

n = 0.0101 moles

Now that we have the moles, we know that the metal and the hydrogen has a mole ratio of 1:1 according to the reaction, so, this means that:

moles M = moles H2 = 0.0101 moles

We have the moles of the metal and the mass, we can calculate the molar mass using expression (2):

MM = 0.590/0.0101

MM = 58.41 g/mol

This is the molar mass of the metal
