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.

What mass of Sodium Chloride is required to make 100.0 mL of 3.0 M solution?
Julli [10]

Answer:

17.55 g of NaCl

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Molarity = 3 M

Volume = 100.0 mL

Mass of NaCl =..?

Next, we shall convert 100.0 mL to L. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 mL = 1 L

Therefore,

100 mL = 100/1000

100 mL = 0.1 L

Therefore, 100 mL is equivalent to 0.1 L.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole NaCl in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Molarity = 3 M

Volume = 0.1 L

Mole of NaCl =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

3 = mole of NaCl /0.1

Cross multiply

Mole of NaCl = 3 × 0.1

Mole of NaCl = 0.3 mole

Finally, we determine the mass of NaCl required to prepare the solution as follow:

Mole of NaCl = 0.3 mole

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mass of NaCl =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

0.3 = mass of NaCl /58.5

Cross multiply

Mass of NaCl = 0.3 × 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 17.55 g

Therefore, 17.55 g of NaCl is needed to prepare the solution.

A pump contains 0.5 L of air at 203kPa. You draw back on the piston of the pump until the pressure reads 25.4kPa. What is the vo
densk [106]
<h3><u> Answer</u>;</h3>

= 4.0 L

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Boyle's law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure at a constant temperature.

Therefore; <em>Volume α 1/pressure</em>

<em>Mathematically; V α 1/P</em>

<em>V = kP, where k is a constant;</em>

<em>P1V1 = P2V2</em>

<em>V1 = 0.5 l, P1 =203 kPa, P2 = 25.4 kPa</em>

<em>V2 = (0.5 × 203 )/25.4 </em>

<em>     = 3.996 </em>

<em>    ≈ </em><em><u>4.0 L</u></em>
