The reaction described by H2(g)+I2(g)⟶2HI(g) has an experimentally determined rate law of rate=k[H2][I2] Some proposed mechanism

s for this reaction are: Mechanism A (1) H2(g)+I2(g)−→k12HI(g) (one-step reaction) Mechanism B (1) I2(g)⥫⥬=k−1k12I(g) (fast, equilibrium) (2) H2(g)+2I(g)−→k22HI(g) (slow) Mechanism C (1) I2(g)⥫⥬=k−1k12I(g) (fast, equilibrium) (2) I(g)+H2(g)−→k2HI(g)+H(g) (slow) (3) H(g)+I(g)−→k3HI(g) (fast) Which of these mechanisms are consistent with the observed rate law? mechanism C mechanism B mechanism A In 1967, J. H. Sullivan showed that this reaction was dramatically catalyzed by light when the energy of the light was sufficient to break the I−I bond in an I2 molecule. Which mechanism or mechanisms are consistent with both the rate law and this additional observation? mechanism A mechanism B mechanism C

Answer:

The only mechanism consistent with observed rate law is mechanism A.

Mechanism A<em> </em>is the only consistent with the observation of J. H. Sullivan

Explanation:

In a reaction, rate law is determined by slow step of the reaction.

In mechanism A, rate law is:

rate = k₁ [H₂][I₂]

In mechanism B, rate law is:

rate = k₂ [H₂][I]²

In mechanism C, rate law is:

rate = k₂ [H₂][I]

Thus, the only mechanism consistent with observed rate law is <em>mechanism A</em>

<em></em>

Now, catalyst works in the slow-step of reaction, is the reaction is catalyzed when The I-I bond breaks, the mechanism consistent with the observation is the mechanism where the slow-step of reaction involves this bond break, again, <em>mechanism A </em>is the only consistent with the observation of J. H. Sullivan.

What volume of a 3.0 M stock solution of H2SO4 is needed to prepare 2.8 L of a 1.6 M H2SO4 solution?
Georgia [21]
Use M1V1 = M2V2 to solve
3(V1) = 2.8 * 1.6
3(V1) = 4.48
V1 = 1.493 L of stock solution

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The mass of coke needed to react completely with 1.0 ton of copper(II) oxide is 0.794 Ton.

Explanation:

2CuO+C\rightarrow 2Cu+CO_2

1 Ton = 907185 grams

Mass of copper oxide = 1.0 Ton = 907185 grams

Moles of copper oxide =\frac{907185 g}{79.55 g/mol}=11,403.95 moles

According to reaction, 2 moles of copper oxide reacts with 1 mole of carbon.

Then 11403.95 moles of copper oxide will react with:

\frac{1}{2}\times 11403.95 mol=5,701.98 mol of carbon

Mass of 5,701.98 moles of carbon:

5,701.98 mol\times 12 g/mol=68,423.75 g

Mass of coke = x

Mass of carbon = 68,423.75 g

Percentage of carbon in coke = 95%

95\%=\frac{68,423.75 g}{x}\times 100

x=720,250.09 g=0.794 Ton

The mass of coke needed to react completely with 1.0 ton of copper(II) oxide is 0.794 Ton.

Complete the equation for the conversion of sucrose into glucose <br> (1)C12H22O11 + H2O
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + H₂O     →    C₅H₁₂O₆ + C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + H₂O     →    C₅H₁₂O₆ + C₆H₁₂O₆

Source of sucrose:

Sucrose is present in roots of plants and also in fruits. It is storage form of energy. Some insects and bacteria use sucrose as main food. Best example is honeybee which collect sucrose and convert it into honey.

Monomers of sucrose and hydrolysis:

Sucrose consist of monomers glucose and fructose which are join together through glycosidic bond. Hydrolysis break the sucrose molecule into glucose and fructose. In hydrolysis glycosidic bond is break which convert the sucrose into glucose and fructose. Hydrolysis is slow process but this reaction is catalyze by enzyme. The enzyme invertase catalyze this reaction.

The given reaction also completely follow the law of conservation of mass. There are equal number of atoms of elements on both side of chemical equation thus mass remain conserved.

Which compound is an Arrhenius base?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
I was hoping that some choices would be given to choose from. As there are no choices given, so i am answering the question based on my knowledge and hope that it comes to your help. Calcium hydroxide is a good example of Arrhenius base. An Arrhenius base is actually a substance that releases a hydroxyl ion in water.

Is this equation completely balanced? 2C8H8 + 25O2 8CO2 + 18H2O No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen &amp; oxygen atoms on
Sergio039 [100]
<span>So to make it clear let's break the equation down species by species and assess the number of each species on bothe sides of the equation:
                   2C</span>₈H₈  +  25O₂   →   8CO₂ +  18H₂<span>O
LHS:  C - 16                                           RHS:  C - 8
          H - 16                                                     H - 36
          O - 50                                                    O - 34

Thus based on that it is evident that the equation is not quite balanced.  This therefore means a "</span><span>No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal."

</span>The actual balance equation would be C₈H₈  +  10O₂   →   8CO₂ +  4H₂O
