Answer:

0.0055 mol of N2O5 will remay after 7 min.

Explanation:

The reaction follows a first-order.

Let the concentration of N2O5 after 7 min be y

Rate = Ky = change in concentration of N2O5/time

K is rate constant = 6.82×10^-3 s^-1

Initial concentration of N2O5 = number of moles/volume = 2.1×10^-2/1.8 = 0.0117 M

Change in concentration = 0.0117 - y

Time = 7 min = 7×60 = 420 s

6.82×10^-3y = 0.0117 - y/420

0.0117 - y = 420×6.82×10^-3y

0.0117 - y = 2.8644y

0.0117 = 2.8644y + y

0.0117 = 3.8644y

y = 0.0117/3.8644 = 0.00303 M

Number of moles of N2O5 left = y × volume = 0.00303 × 1.8 = 0.0055 mol (to 2 significant digits)

What is the ph of 0.450 m al(no3)3 [ka for al3+(aq) = 1.00x10-5]? express your answer to two decimal places?

White raven [17]

Answer : The pH of the solution is, 2.67

Explanation :

The equilibrium chemical reaction is:

$Al^{3+}+H_2O\rightarrow Al(OH)^{2+}+H^+$

Initial conc. 0.450 0 0

At eqm. (0.450-x) x x

As we are given:

$K_a=1.00\times 10^{-5}$

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

$K_a=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}$

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

$1.00\times 10^{-5}=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}$

$x=0.00212M$

The concentration of $H^+$ = x = 0.00212 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of solution.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (0.00212)$

$pH=2.67$

Therefore, the pH of the solution is, 2.67

A location along stream where most erosions occur

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

At a stream's headwaters, often high in the mountains, gradients are steep. The stream moves fast and does lots of work eroding the stream bed.As a stream moves into lower areas, the gradient is not as steep. Now the stream does more work eroding the edges of its banks.

What is the last energy level of N? Mg?

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

To infer the last energy of the given atoms, we need to write their electronic configuration:

For N = 1S² 2S² 2P³

Mg = 1S² 2S² 2P⁶ 3S²

The energy levels are usually designated as;

n = 1

n = 2

n = 3

n =4

For N, the last energy level is 2

Mg, the last energy level is 3

We can also determine this number by the periods the atoms can be found.

amid [387]

By definition a cylinder is a solid geometric figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross-section. A good example of a cylinder would be a soda can.
