Answer:

120.575 kJ is the activation energy for the souring process.

Explanation:

The formula for an activation energy is given as:

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

K_1 = rate constant at 25^oC = 40k

K_2 = rate constant at 4^oC = k

Ea = activation energy for the reaction = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K

T_1 = initial temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298 K

T_2 = final temperature = 4^oC=273+4=277 K

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:l

\log (\frac{k}{40k})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times 8.314 J/mol K}[\frac{1}{298K}-\frac{1}{277 K}]

E_a=120,575.61J=120.575 kJ

120.575 kJ is the activation energy for the souring process.

Answer: one molecule of O2.

Explanation: sweet i just took a guess but I believe that if 3 o2 molecules - 2 h2 molecules I think that its just basic maths and it is C because 3-2 = 1 and its o2 remaining, sorry if I’m wrong.

Suppose of potassium sulfate is dissolved in of a aqueous solution of sodium chromate. Calculate the final molarity of potassium
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, here's the complete question:

<em><u>"Suppose 0.0842g of potassium sulfate is dissolved in 50.mL of a 52.0mM aqueous solution of sodium chromate. Calculate the final molarity of potassium cation in the solution. You can assume the volume of the solution doesn't change when the potassium sulfate is dissolved in it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits."</u></em>

Explanation:

Reaction :-

K2SO4 + Na2CrO4 ------> K2CrO4 + Na2SO4

Mass of K2SO4 = 0.0842 g, Molar mass of K2SO4 = 174.26 g/mol

Number of moles of K2SO4 = 0.0842 g / 174.26 g/mol = 0.000483 mol

Concentration of Na2CrO4 = 52.0 mM = 52.0 * 10^-3 M = 0.052 mol/L

Volume of Na2CrO4 solution = 50.0 ml = 50 L / 1000 = 0.05 L

Number of moles of Na2CrO4 = 0.05 L * 0.052 mol/L = 0.0026 mol

Since number of moles of K2SO4 is smaller than number of moles Na2CrO4, so 0.000483 mol of K2SO4 will react with 0.000483 mol of Na2CrO4 will produce 0.000483 mol of K2CrO4.

0.000483 mol of K2CrO4 will dissociate into 2* 0.000483 mol of K^+

Final concentration of potassium cation

= (2*0.000483 mol) / 0.05 L = 0.02 mol/L = 0.02 M

2Al+3Cl2⟶2AlCl3
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

7.335 moles of  Cl₂ are required to react with 4.89 miles of Al.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of Al = 4.89 mol

Number of moles of Cl₂ required = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Al + 3Cl₂    →   2AlCl₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al and chlorine from balance chemical equation.

                            Al           :         Cl₂

                             2           :           3

                            4.89      :         3/2×4.89 =7.335 mol

Thus, 7.335 moles of  Cl₂ are required to react with 4.89 miles of Al.
