What is the rate constant of a first-order reaction that takes 5.50 minutes for the reactant concentration to drop to half of it

s initial value?
Chemistry

bulgar [2K]3 years ago

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.

If I had a mixture of salt, sand, and iron filings I could separate the mixture by …
liubo4ka [24]
Okay to separate this mixture you will have to first use a magnet because the magnet will attract the iron filings out of the sand then you will remain with the sand and salt.

Next step is to add water to the sand and salt mixture the salt will dissolve in the water and the sand will not forming a heterogeneous mixture.Then using the method of filtration you can separate the sand from  the salt solution leaving the salt solution

 To separate the salt from the water use the method of evaporation this will enable you to get back the salt 

In the end you should beable to have the sand,salt and iron filings separate.

Hope this was helpful to you.

Happy New Years !!! May your year be prosperous

The heat gained by the ice melted the ice and raised the temperature of the melted ice from its initial temperature to the final
liberstina [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When ice is heated, the ice gains heat.

This heat gained by the ice is both used to break the intermolecular forces in ice to form water, as well as to raise the temperature of the water to it's final temperature.

If temperature is increased, the number of collisions per second <br> .
Hatshy [7]

Answer

If the temperature is increased , the number of collision per second increases.

Explanation

Temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of a sample of a gas according to the equation PV=n R T. An increased in temperature , increases the kinetic energy of the gas particles which in turn rises the velocity of the gas particles hitting the walls of the container. The more the number of particles the higher the collision rate and greater the pressure as long as the volume of container and the temperature are constant.
