The activation energy for a reaction is changed from 184 kJ/mol to 59.0 kJ/mol at 600. K by the introduction of a catalyst. If t

Answer:

The catalyzed reaction will take time of 5.11\times 10^{-8} years.

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

The expression used with catalyst and without catalyst is,

\frac{K_2}{K_1}=\frac{A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_2}{RT}}}{A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_1}{RT}}}

\frac{K_2}{K_1}=e^{\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}}

where,

K_2 = rate of reaction with catalyst

K_1 = rate of reaction without catalyst

Ea_2 = activation energy with catalyst  = 59.0 kJ/mol = 59000 J/mol

Ea_1 = activation energy without catalyst  = 184 kJ/mol = 184000 J/mol

R = gas constant

T = temperature = 600K

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

\frac{K_2}{K_1}=e^{\frac{184,000 kJ-59000 kJ}{R\times 300}}=7.632\times 10^{10}

The reaction enhances by 7.632\times 10^{10}  when catalyst is present.

Time taken by reaction without catalyzed = 3900 years

Time taken by reaction with catalyzed = x

x=\frac{3900 year}{7.632\times 10^{10}}=5.11\times 10^{-8} years

The catalyzed reaction will take time of 5.11\times 10^{-8} years.

Which of the following samples had the lowest average kinetic energy?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

B. 10 mL of Cabr2(aq) at 35 degrees celsius

Explanation:

The colder something is the more the atoms are compressed together; atoms can't move as much. 35 degrees is the warmest option, so it makes the most sense.

What is equal to the number of particles in 36 grams of carbon-12?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will  use the Avogadro numbers.

The number 6.022×10²³ is called Avogadro number and it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one mole of substance.  According to this,

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole =  6.022×10²³  atoms.

18 g water = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

we are given 36 g of C-12. So,

12 g of C-12 = 1 mole

24 g of C-12 =  2 mole

36 g of C-12 = 3 mole

So 3 moles of C-12 equals to the number of particles in 36 g of C-12.

The density of benzene at 15 ∘C is 0.8787 g/mL. Calculate the mass of 0.1200 L of benzene at this temperature.
Pavel [41]
Use the density to convert volume into mass. 

since the density is in g/ml and the volume was given in Liters, we need to first convert the Liters into mililiters. just multiply by 1000 or move the decimal three times.

0.1200 Liters= 120.0 mL

120.0 mL (0.8787 grams/ 1 mL)= 105 grams
