Answer:

goes down regardless of whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic

Explanation:

The activation energy is the minimum energy the reactants in a chemical reaction will have to reach in order to be transformed into products.

Hence, the higher the activation energy of a reaction, the lower the reaction rate and the lower the activation energy of a reaction, the higher the reaction rate.

Activation energy is independent of whether a reaction is exothermic or endothermic.

<em>Therefore, as activation energy increases, reaction rate goes down irrespective of whether is is exothermic or otherwise.</em>

Does beryllium (Be) or Sodium (Na) have the same electron arrangement as Magnesium (Mg)? Why?
Finger [1]

Answer:

Na has the most similar configuration.

Explanation:

Na electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ or [Ne] 3s₁

Mg electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s² or [Ne] 3s²

Be electron configuration: 1s²2s² or [He] 2s²

This is because Na and Mg are right next to each other in the same period (horizontal).

If 18.7ml of 0.01500M aqueous HCl is required to titrâtes 15.00ml of an aqueous solution of NaOH to the equivalence point, what
sweet [91]

Answer:

0.0187 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced neutralization reaction

NaOH + HCl ⇒ NaCl + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of HCl

18.7 mL of 0.01500 M HCl react.

0.0187 L × 0.01500 mol/L = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of NaOH

The molar ratio of HCl to NaOH is 1:1. The reacting moles of NaOH are 1/1 × 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol.

Step 4: Calculate the molarity of NaOH

2.81 × 10⁻⁴ moles are in 15.00 mL of NaOH.

[NaOH] = 2.81 × 10⁻⁴ mol/0.01500 L = 0.0187 M

What is the ph of a solution of 0.400 m k2hpo4, potassium hydrogen phosphate?
dusya [7]
When we can get Pka for K2HPO4 =6.86 so we can determine the Ka :

when Pka = - ㏒ Ka

          6.86 = -㏒ Ka 

∴Ka = 1.38 x 10^-7

by using ICE table:

               H2PO4- →  H+  + HPO4
initial      0.4 m            0         0

change     -X                +X       +X

Equ       (0.4-X)               X          X

when Ka = [H+][HPO4] / [H2PO4-]

by substitution:

1.38 X 10^-7 = X^2 / (0.4-X)   by solving for X

∴X = 2.3x 10^-4 

∴[H+] = X = 2.3 x 10^-4

∴PH = -㏒[H+]

        = -㏒ (2.3 x 10^-4)
 ∴PH  =  3.6
