1. A student performs a reaction in a beaker by reaction silver nitrate with one long copper wire. The student’s thermometer cha

nges from 27°C to 35°C. Based on this, is this reaction endothermic, exothermic, or neither? Explain your reasoning.
2. List three ways that the student could speed up the reaction in question 1

Answer:

1.Because the thermometer isn't part of the reaction (it's outside the system), and it increases in temperature, it must be absorbing energy that was released by the chemicals. When chemicals release energy during a reaction, the reaction is exothermic.  

2.The student could

Increase the temperature of the beaker using a hotplate/burner/stove

Increase the concentration of silver nitrate or copper wire

Cut the copper wire into smaller pieces to increase its surface area

Use a catalyst, if one exists

Explanation:

The observation of student was that thermometer reading changed from 27°C to 35°C which indicates that temperature of the beaker solution rose after reaction due to release of heat during reaction as a product.

Those chemical reactions which gives heat energy as a product into their surrounding are categorized as exothermic reactions. During the course of these reaction temperature of the surroundings also increased.

So, this means that reaction between silver nitrate and copper wire is an exothermic reaction.

Three ways that the student could speed up the reaction :

  • By adding catalyst to the reaction.
  • By decreasing the temperature.
  • By increasing the concentration of silver nitarte solution.

Determine the rate of a reaction that follows the rate law rate = k a m b i where
ikadub [295]
(missing part of your question):
when we have K = 1 x 10^-2 and [A] = 2 M & [B] = 3M & m= 2 & i = 1
So when the rate = K[A]^m [B]^i
and when we have m + i = 3 so the order of this reaction is 3 So the unit of K is L^2.mol^-2S^-1
So by substitution:
∴ the rate = (1x 10 ^-2 L^-2.mol^-2S^-1)*(2 mol.L^-1)^2*(3mol.L^-1)
                 = 0.12 mol.L^-1.S^-1

How many protons neutrons and electrons are there in a neutral atom of 43k (potassium-43)?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

             Number of Protons  =  19

             Number of Neutrons  =  25

             Number of Electrons  =  19

Explanation:

Number of Protons:

                               The number of protons present in any atom are equal to the atomic number of that particular atom. Hence, as the atomic number of Potassium is 19 therefore, it contains 19 protons.

Number Neutrons:

                             The number of neutrons present in atom are calculated as,

                               # of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - # of protons

As given,

                                Atomic Mass  =  43

                                # of Protons  =  19

So,

                                # of Neutrons  =  43 - 19

                                # of Neutrons  =  24

Number of Electrons:

                                   As we know for a neutral atom the number of electrons are exactly equal to the number of protons present in its nucleus. So, for 19 protons in neutral Potassium atom there must be 19 electrons.

Wht is a electric charge
9966 [12]

Answer:

Electric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. There are two types of electric charge: positive and negative (commonly carried by protons and electrons respectively).

Why is there a threshold in response to some toxins?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Everything is deadly at a certain amount. Sometimes you accidently incest a small amount of something that's toxic, but it doesn't really do any harm because of how little it is. The body just gets rid of it during the its normal biological processes.

There's a certain amount of the toxin that you have to reach before the body begins to really feel it's effects and begin to get rid of it (vomiting, clamminess, all that jazz).

Of course it depends on the substance in question, some things are way more dangerous in much less amounts than others (e.g. ricin vs. poinsettia flowers).

Hope this helps!
