Chemistry

Valentin [98]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. 8.31 x 10-5 s-1

Explanation:

The general first-order reaction is:

ln[A] = ln[A]₀ -kt

<em>Where [A] is acutal concentration of reactant, initial concentration is [A]₀, k is rate constant and t is time pass</em>

And the equation of the half-life, t 1/2, is:

t_{1/2} = \frac{ln 2}{K}

Has half-life is 139min:

139min * (60s / 1min) = 8340s

t_{1/2} = \frac{ln 2}{8340s}

Half-life is 8.31x10⁻⁵ s⁻¹

<h3>a. 8.31 x 10-5 s-1 </h3>

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

You will need 12 moles of F2 if you want to make 8 moles of AlF3.

Explanation:

It takes 3 moles F2 to make 2 moles of AlF3 (this will be our mole ratio)

2 moles AlF3/3 moles F2 =8 moles AlF3/x moles AlF3.

x=12 moles AlF3

The change in entropy, ΔS∘rxn , is related to the the change in the number of moles of gas molecules, Δngas . Determine the chan
kifflom [539]

Explanation:

Entropy of a reaction ΔS∘rxn is the degree of disoderliness in a system. Gases generally have a higher degree of disorder compared to liquids. Hence for the reaction 2H2(g)+O2(g) ⟶ 2H2O(l), the entropy decreases sice the reactants are in the gaseous state and the products is in the liquid state of matter

One mole of a monatomic ideal gas is subjected to the following sequence of steps: a. Starting at 300 K and 10 atm, the gas expa
Verdich [7]

Answer:

a) Q = 0; W = 0; ΔU = 0; ΔH = 0; ΔS = 0.09 atm.L/K

b) Q = 1250 J; W = 0; ΔU = 1250 J; ΔH = 1250 J; ΔS = -0.0235 atm.L/K

c) Q = 3653.545 J; W = - 3653.545 J; ΔU = 0; ΔH = 0; ΔS = - 3653.545 J

d) Q = - 2080 J; W = 830 J; ΔU = - 1250 J; ΔH = - 2080 J; ΔS = - 5.984 J/K

Explanation:

a) If there is a vacuum, the work is zero, as it is a free expansion, the volume increases, the pressure decreases, the temperature is constant and the internal energy is constant.

∴ n = 1 mole

∴ PV = RTn....ideal gas

∴ P1 = 10 atm

∴ R = 0.082 atm.L/K.mol

∴ T = 300 K = T2

∴ V2 = 3*V1

⇒ W = 0.....expands freely into vacuum

⇒ ΔU = Q = 0....first law

⇒ ΔS = -  nR Ln(P2/P1).....ideal gas

∴ V1*P1/T1 = V2*P2/T2

∴ T1 = T2 = 300 K

⇒ P2 = V1*P1 / V2 = V1*P1 / 3V1 = 10 atm/3 = 3.33 atm

⇒ ΔS = - (1mol)*(0.082 atm.L/K.mol) Ln ( 3.33/10)

⇒ ΔS = 0.09 atm.L/K

∴ ΔH = ΔU + (P2V2 - P1V1) = 0 + 0 = 0

b) heated reversibly at constant volume:

⇒ W = 0 ...at constant volume

∴ T2 = 400 K; T1 = 300 K

∴ V1 = V2

⇒ Q = ΔU = CvΔT....first law

∴ Cv = 12.5 J/K.mol.....monoatomic ideal gas

∴ ΔT = 400 - 300 = 100 K

⇒ Q = ΔU = 12.5 J/mol.K * 100K = 1250 J/mol * 1 mol = 1250 J

∴ ΔH = ΔU + PΔV = ΔU + 0 = 1250 J

∴ ΔS = - nR Ln (P2/P1)

∴ P2/T2 = P1/T1...constant volume

∴ P1 = 3.33 atm

⇒ P2 = P1*T2 / T1 = (3.33 atm)*(400K) / (300K) = 4.44 atm

⇒ ΔS = - (1mol)*(0.082atm.L/K.mol) Ln (4.44/3.33)

⇒ ΔS = - 0.0235 atm.L/K

c) reversibly expanded at constant temperature:

∴ T1 = T2 = 400K

∴ V2 = 3*V1

∴ ΔU = 0...constant temperature

⇒ Q = - W....fisrt law

∴ W = - ∫ PdV..... reversibly expansion

∴ P = nRT/V... ideal gas

⇒ W = - nRT ∫ dV/V

⇒ W = - nRT Ln (V2/V1)

⇒ W = - (1mol)*(8.314 J/K.mol) Ln (3)

⇒ W = - 9.134 J/K *400K = - 3653.545 J

⇒ Q = - W = 3653.545 J

⇒ ΔH = ΔU + P1V1 - P2V2 = 0 + nRT1 - nRT2 = 0 + 0 = 0

∴ ΔS = - nR Ln(P2/P1)

∴ P1 = 4.44 atm

⇒ P2 = V1*P1*T2/ V2*T1 = V1*(4.44atm)*(400K) / (3.V1)*(400K)

⇒ P2 = 4.44atm/3 = 1.48 atm

⇒ ΔS = - (1mol)*(8.314 J/mol.K) Ln (1.48/4.44)

⇒ ΔS = -9.134J/K * 400K = - 3653.545 J

d) reversibly cooled at constant pressure:

∴ T2 = 300 K;  T1 = 400 K

∴ P2 = P1

⇒ Q = ΔH = CpΔT

∴ Cp = 20.8 J/K.mol

∴ ΔT = 300 - 400 = - 100 K

⇒ Q = ΔH = 20.8 J/mol.K * ( -100K) = - 2080 J/mol * 1mol = - 2080 J

⇒ ΔU = nCvΔT = (1mol)*(12.5 J/mol.K)*( - 100K) = -1250 J

⇒ W = ΔU - Q = ΔU - ΔH = -1250 J - ( - 2080 J ) = 830 J

∴ ΔS = ∫ δQ/T = ∫ nCpdT/T

⇒ ΔS = nCp Ln (T2/T1)

⇒ ΔS = (1mol)*(20.8 J/mol.K) Ln (300/400) = - 5.984 J/K
