Answer:

D) 2.3 x 10⁻¹ s⁻¹

Explanation:

The rate constant is related to the activation energy through the formula:

k= Ae^(-Eₐ /RT)

where A is the collision factor, Eₐ the activation energy, R is the gas constant ( 8.314 J/Kmol ) , and T is the temperature (K)

So a plot of lnk versus 1/T ( Arrehenius plot ) gives us a straight line with slope equal -Eₐ/R and intercept lnA

lnk = -(Eₐ/T)(1/T) + lnA

which has the form y= mx + b

In this problem, we can use the data provided to:

a) Using a calculator determine the slope and intercept and then calculate the value of rate constant at 320 ºC, or

b) Plot the data and determine the equation of the best line , and answer the question for k @ 320 ºC by reading the value from the plot.

Once you do the plot, the resulting equation is:

y = - 19 x 10³ x + 30,582 ( R² = 0.999 )

So for T = 320 + 273 K = 593 K

Y = 19 x 10³ X + 30.58

So for T = (320 + 273)K = 593 K

Y =  -19 x 10³ ( 1/593) + 30.58 = -32.04 +30.58 = - 1.46

and then since

y = lnk ⇒ e^y = k

k= e^-1.46 = 2.3 x 10⁻¹ s⁻¹

Note: there is an error of transcription in the value for T = 472.1 ( 1/T = 2.118 x 10⁻³  and  not 2.228 x 10⁻³). You can  recognize this mistake if you plot the data and notice it produces an outlier.

How many molecules of dinitrogen pentoxide are in 0.27 moles of dinitrogen<br>pentoxide?​
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

1.6 × 10²³ molecules of N2O5

Explanation:

To find the amount of molecules from the amount of moles of a substance we simply multiply the amount of moles by Avagadro's number.

0.27mol × 6.02×10²³ = 1.6 × 10²³ molecules of N2O5

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

photosynthesis

Explanation:

The process by which land plants produce their own food using sunlight and carbon dioxide is known as photosynthesis (Figure 1). While carbon dioxide is absorbed by the leaves, the sunlight is captured by a chemical molecule in the plant, called chlorophyll (Chl).
