For a first order reaction, the half life is inversely proportional to the rate constant. 
The formula is
half life = ln(2)/k = 0.693/k
where k is the rate constant

t = 5.50 minutes

k = ln(2)/5.50 = 0.126 min^-1

Your rate constant is 0.126 min^-1.

Answer:

120 g of NaCl in 300 g H20   at 90 C

Explanation:

At x = 90   go vertical to the line for NaCl...then go left to the y-axis to find the solubility in 100 g H20   = 40

we want   300 g H20    so multiply this by  3    to get   120 gm of NaCl in 300 g

Why does the temperature of the water stay the same when it melts and boils?
krok68 [10]

The temperature stays the same when a solid changes to a liquid because energy is required to break the forces between particles of water therefore changing the state of matter and separating the particles away from each other.

When a liquid boils, the energy is needed by the particles to escape the surface of the liquid and boil. Instead of raising the temperature, the energy goes into the particles' kinetic energy store so it has enough speed to escape the surface of the liquid.
