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.

A gas at 1.2 atm has a
Papessa [141]

Answer:

1.26 mole

Explanation:

Using ideal gas law

PV=nRT

R= 0.08206

T=273+87=360

1.2×31=n×0.08206×360

37.2 =n × 29.54

n= 1.26 mole

The decomposition of N2O4 into NO2 has Kp = 2. Some N2O4 is placed into an empty container, and the partial pressure of NO2 at e
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Expression for the given decomposition reaction is as follows.

           N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}

Let us assume that x concentration of N_{2}O_{4} is present at the initial stage. Therefore, according to the ICE table,

                    N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}

Initial :               x                   0

Change :       - 0.1        2 \times 0.1

Equilibrium : (x - 0.1)             0.2

Now, expression for K_{p} of this reaction is as follows.

     K_{p} = \frac{P^{2}_{NO_{2}}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

          K_{p} = \frac{P^{2}_{NO_{2}}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}

                 2 = \frac{(0.2)^{2}}{(x - 0.1)}

                2 \times (x - 0.1) = (0.2)^{2}

                            x = 0.12

This means that P_{N_{2}O_{4}} = x = 0.12 atm.

Thus, we can conclude that the initial pressure in the container prior to decomposition is 0.12 atm.
