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.

If you react 2.00 g of hydrogen completely using 15.87 g of oxygen to produce water, how much water (in grams) will you have?
leonid [27]

Answer:

The amount (mass) of water we will have is 17.869 grams

Explanation:

The molar mass of hydrogen gas H₂ = 2.016 grams/mole

The molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.999 g/mol

Therefore, 2.00 g of hydrogen will give;

2.00/2.016 = 0.9921 moles of H₂ gas and

15.87 g of O₂ will give;

15.87/31.999 = 0.49595 moles

The reaction is as follows;

2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) → 2H₂O (l)

Two moles of H₂ react with one mole of O₂ to produce two moles of H₂O

Therefore 0.9921 moles of H₂ will react with 0.9921/2 or 0.49595 moles of O₂ to produce 0.9921 moles of H₂O

From the above we note that all the H₂ and O₂ are completely consumed to form 0.9921 moles of H₂O

Molar mass of H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol

Number of moles = Mass/(Molar mass)

∴ Mass of H₂O = (Molar mass) × (Number of moles)

= 18.01528 g/mol × 0.9921 moles = 17.869 grams

Therefore the amount (mass) of water we will have = 17.869 grams.

Si se tiene 1mol de NO . cuantas moleculas de NO hay
kumpel [21]

if you have 1mol of NO. how many molecules of NO are there

Answer:

6.02 x 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of NO = 1 mole

Unknown:

Number of molecules in NO;

Solution:

A mole of compound contains the Avogadro's number of particles.

  1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

So, 1 mole of NO contained 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

Describe what happens in a condensation reactions
dlinn [17]
A condensation reaction is described to be a reaction wherein two molecules form an even larger product and consequently produces a smaller molecule as a by-product. For example, when two amino acids are combined, a dipeptide bond is formed. As a result, 1 molecule of water is produced as a by-product.
