Describe how temperature affects the rate of a reaction

1 answer:

8 0

Hello! The reactions are catalyzed, or sped up by enzymes. Enzymes have strict conditions they can work under, including a small range of temperature. Temperature increase slows the rate of reaction, and extreme temperature increase can denature, or destroy an enzyme. Hope this helps! :)

Calculate the theoretical yield of 1-bromobutane; base your calculations on using 1.0 g of 1-butanol (as the limiting reagent).

Tomtit [17]

C₄H₉OH + HBr = C₄H₉Br + H2O

Δmole of alcohol gives 1 mole of bromobutanol

HBr is in excess, so the yield of the product is limited by the alcohol

Wt. of 1 butanol = 18

Molar mass of the butanol = 74.12 g/mole

Moles of the alcohol = 1/74.12 = 0.01349 moles

So, moles of bromobutane = 0.01349 moles

Molar mass of C₄H₉Br = 137.018 g/moles

So, theoretical mass of bromobutane is = 0.01349 × 137.0.18

= 1.85 g

8.0 mol AgNO3 reacts with 5.0 mol Zn in

Yakvenalex [24]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 8 moles of Ag can be produced from 8 moles of AgNO₃ and 5 moles of Zn.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

2 AgNO₃ + Zn → 2 Ag + Zn(NO₃)₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

AgNO₃: 2 moles
Zn: 1 mole
Ag: 2 moles
Zn(NO₃)₂: 1 mole

<h3>Limiting reagent</h3>

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

<h3>Limiting reagent in this case</h3>

To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 1 mole of Zn reacts with 2 moles of AgNO₃, 5 moles of Zn reacts with how many moles of AgNO₃?

$amount of moles of AgNO_{3}= \frac{5 moles of Znx2 moles of AgNO_{3}}{1 mole of Zn}$

<u><em>amount of moles of AgNO₃= 10 moles </em></u>

But 10 moles of AgNO₃ are not available, 8 moles are available. Since you have less moles than you need to react with 5 moles of Zn, AgNO₃ will be the limiting reagent.

<h3>Moles of Ag formed</h3>

Considering the limiting reagent, the following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 2 moles of AgNO₃ form 2 moles of Ag, 8 moles of AgNO₃ form how many moles of Ag?

$amount of moles of Ag=\frac{8 moles of AgNO_{3}x2 moles of Ag }{2 moles of AgNO_{3}}$

<u><em>amount of moles of Ag= 8 moles</em></u>

Then, 8 moles of Ag can be produced from 8 moles of AgNO₃ and 5 moles of Zn.

Karolina [17]

The rate of the reaction increases when a catalyst has been added to the reaction mixture by e) providing a new mechanism for the reaction to procced by

Catalyst, in chemistry, a substance that speeds up a reaction without itself being consumed. Enzymes are natural catalysts responsible for many important biochemical reactions.

Most solid catalysts are oxides, sulfides, halides of metals or metallic elements, and metalloid elements boron, aluminum and silicon. Gas and liquid catalysts are usually used in pure form or in combination with suitable carriers or solvents. Solid catalysts are usually dispersed in another material known as a catalyst support.
