Answer:

494.49 g of NaCl.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Molality of NaCl = 3.140 m

Mass of water = 2.692 kg

Mass of NaCl =.?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of NaCl in the solution.

Molality is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit kilogram of solvent. Mathematically, it is expressed as

Molality = mole of solute /Kg of solvent

With the above formula, we can obtain the number of mole NaCl in the solution as follow:

Molality of NaCl = 3.140 m

Mass of water = 2.692 kg

Mole of NaCl =..?

Molality = mole of solute /Kg of solvent

3.140 = mole of NaCl /2.692

Cross multiply

Mole of NaCl = 3.140 x 2.692

Mole of NaCl = 8.45288 moles

Finally, we shall covert 8.45288 moles of NaCl to grams. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of NaCl = 8.45288 moles

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mass of NaCl =.?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

8.45288 = mass of NaCl /58.5

Cross multiply

Mass of NaCl = 8.45288 × 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 494.49 g.

Therefore, 494.49 g of NaCl are present in the solution.

A reaction is started with both reactants and products and proceeds in the reverse direction to reach equilibrium. Which of the

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

A) Yes. The reaction reaches equilibrium when the rate of reaction of the reverse reaction is equal to the rate of the forward reaction , then the only cause for the reverse reaction to be favoured is that the initial rate of the reverse was greater than the forward one.

B) No. The rate constant of the reverse reaction can be greater than the forward one but the rate also depends on concentrations, thus a reverse reaction with greater rate constant can result in the net reaction proceeding in the forward reaction, the reverse reaction or be at equilibrium depending on the concentrations or reactants and products

C) No. A lower activation energy means a higher rate constant , but a higher rate constant does not mean that the net reaction will proceed to the reactants ( see point B)

D) No. The energy changes determine conditions under thermodynamic equilibrium and therefore the net direction of the reaction will depend on the temperature and concentrations of reactants and products with respect to the equilibrium conditions.

In which direction does the wind blow from during a sea breeze

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Sea breeze moves from the areas of higher pressure on the water in the direction of the areas of lower pressure on land.

Explanation:

Sea breeze moves from the areas of higher pressure on the water in the direction of the areas of lower pressure on land. Whereas, land breeze blows from the areas of higher pressure on land to the areas of lower pressure on water.

In this system, potential and kinetic energy are ________________ proportional.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

There are two major forms of energy; these are potential and kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy present in moving options. Examples include mechanical and electrical energy.

The formula for kinetic energy is 1/2mv² where "m" is mass and "v" is velocity.

While potential energy is the energy present in stationary objects that can be put to use in future. Example includes a ball in its resting state. The formula for potential energy is "mgh" where "m" is mass, "g" is acceleration due to gravity and "h" is height

Considering the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. Looking at the example provided earlier for potential energy, a ball in its resting position (having a potential energy) when kicked will have a kinetic energy (which can be calculated with the formula provided earlier), hence

Total energy = potential energy (P.E) + kinetic energy (K.E)

This formula and the explanation above can be used to answer the completed question.

NOTE: There is no standard relationship between P.E and K.E. They could be directly or indirectly proportional depending on the circumstance.
