Answer:

e. 22s

Explanation:

Initial Concentration = 100

Final concentration = 15 ( Since the reaction is 85% complete)

Time = 12 minutes = 720 seconds

The integrated rate law for second order reactions is given as;

1 / [A] = (1 / [A]o) + kt

Making k subject of interest, we have;

kt = (1 / [A] ) - (1 / [A]o )

k = (1 / [A] ) - (1 / [A]o ) / t

k = [(1/ 15) - (1 / 100) ] / 720

k = (0.0667 - 0.01 ) / 720

k = 0.0567 / 720

k = 7.875e^-5

How long would it take for the reaction to be 15% complete?

Final concentration = 85 (Since the reaction would be 15% complete)

The integrated rate law for second order reactions is given as;

1 / [A] = (1 / [A]o) + kt

Making t subject of interest, we have;

kt = (1 / [A] ) - (1 / [A]o )

t = (1 / [A] ) - (1 / [A]o ) / k

t = [(1 / 85 ) - (1 / 100) ] / 7.875e^-5

t = (0.0117 - 0.01 ) / 7.875e^-5

t = 0.001765 / 7.875e^-5

t = 22.41 seconds

Corect option = E.

A 35.0-ml sample of 0.20 m lioh is titrated with 0.25 m hcl. What is the ph of the solution after 23.0 ml of hcl have been added
kiruha [24]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

pH = 12.33

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The equation of reaction is :

LiOH(aq) + HCl(aq) --> LiCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Reactants left after the titrant is added;

Total Moles LiOH;

= 0.035L LiOH × (0.2moles/L)

= 0.007moles of LiOH

Moles of HCl;

= 0.023L HCl × (0.25moles/L)

= 0.00575moles HCl is the limiting reagent

Reacting amount of moles of LiOH;

= 0.0575 moles HCl *(1mole LiOH/1moles HCl)

=0.00575 moles LiOH (reacted)

Moles of LiOH left;

= 0.007moles total - 0.00575moles that react

= .00125 moles of LiOH (left)

LiOH is a strong base, which means that it ionizes completely.  

0.00125moles LiOH *(moles/0.058L) = 0.02155M of LiOH

LiOH(aq) --> Li+(aq) + OH-(aq)

[LiOH] = [OH-] = 0.02155 M

pOH = -log[OH-]

pOH = -log(0.02155)

pOH= 1.67

pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 14 - 1.67

pH = 12.33

Which of these pairs indicates an incorrect coupling of reversible reactions?dehydration synthesis and hydrolysisanabolic and ca
Olegator [25]

Answer:

option C= hydrolysis and break down

Explanation:

All other three pairs are correct coupling of each others.

Option A= dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis

Dehydration synthesis:

In dehydration synthesis monomers combine through the covalent bonds and form large molecules. The large molecules are called polymers. The water as a byproduct also released when monomers joints together.

Hydrolysis:

In hydrolysis the polymers are break down into monomers by using water molecules. The catalysts are also required in this process.

Option B= Catabolic and Anabolic

Anabolic:

In this process smaller molecules combine to gather to form large complex molecules by using energy.

For example simple glucose molecules join together to form large disaccharides.

Catabolic:

It is the break down of large complex molecules to the smaller molecules.

For example during cellular respiration sugar molecules break down and generate energy.

Option D=  Break down and synthesis

The break down and synthesis are also reverse pair of each others. The  synthesis involve the formation of molecules form smaller component while the break down involve destruction of molecules into smaller units.
