A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

a_o=a\times e^{-kt}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a_o = let initial amount of the reactant  

a = amount left after decay process  

We have :

a_o=x

a=58\%\times x=0.58x

t = 95 s

0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}

\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

How does the carbon rod of a cell beomes a positive<br>terminal?​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

In the middle of a dry cell, is a rod made of carbon. Around the carbon rod is a chemical paste. At the same time, the carbon rod becomes positively charged. When this happens, electrical current flows out of the cell when a conductor is attached between the cell's positive and negative terminals.

The specific heat capacity of sea water is 4100 J/Kg°C and the boiling point of 100.6 °C. (i) Calculate the energy required to r
maw [93]

Answer:

334.314 (kJ)

Explanation:

1) the formula for the required energy is: Q=c*m(Bp-t), where c - 4100 J/kg*C; m - 0.9 kg; Bp - 100.6 C; t - 10 C.

2) according to the formula above:

Q=4100*0.9*(100.6-10)=41*9*906=334314 (J).
