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.

An overseas flight leaves New York in the late afternoon and arrives in London 8.50 hours later. The airline distance from New Y
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

v = 658.82 km/h

Explanation:

The distance between New York and London is 5.6\times 10^3\ km

Time taken from New York to London is 8.5 hours

We need to find the average speed of the plane.

Total distance covered divided by the total time taken is equal to the average speed of an object. So,

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{5.6\times 10^3\ km}{8.5\ h}\\\\v=658.82\ km/h

So, the average speed of the plane is 658.82 km/h.

The distance between particles______when the temperature increases and
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

increases

decreases

Explanation:

The distance between particles increases when the temperature increases and decreases when temperature decreases.

  • Temperature changes in a system causes the particle of such system to behave in different ways.
  • When particles gain heat energy as their temperature increases, they begin to move further apart.
  • As their temperature reduces they tend to coalesce.
