They discovered this since S waves don’t travel through the earth but P waves do. P waves tend to travel faster than S waves in speed, 1&14km/s vs 1&8km/s

Consider the second-order reaction:
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Initial concentration of HI is 5 mol/L.

The concentration of HI after 4.53\times 10^{10} s is 0.00345 mol/L.

Explanation:

2HI(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+I_2(g)


Rate Law: k[HI]^2


Rate constant of the reaction = k = 6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s

Order of the reaction = 2

Initial rate of reaction = R=1.6\times 10^{-7} Mol/L s

Initial concentration of HI =[A_o]

1.6\times 10^{-7} mol/L s=(6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s)[HI]^2

[A_o]=5 mol/L

Final concentration of HI after t = [A]

t = 4.53\times 10^{10} s

Integrated rate law for second order kinetics is given by:

\frac{1}{[A]}=kt+\frac{1}{[A_o]}

\frac{1}{[A]}=6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s\times 4.53\times 10^{10} s+\frac{1}{[5 mol/L]}

[A]=0.00345 mol/L

The concentration of HI after 4.53\times 10^{10} s is 0.00345 mol/L.

Iron has a mass of 7.87 g per cubic centimeter of volume, and the mass of an iron atom is 9.27 × 10-26 kg. If you simplify and t
Talja [164]
<span>(a) what is the average volume (in cubic meters) required for each iron atom
For this case, the density of Iron would be </span>7.87g/cm³
<span>
V = 9.27 x 10^-26 kg / </span>7.87g/cm<span>³ ( 1 kg / 1000 g)
</span>V = 1.18 x 10-23 cm³<span>

(b) what is the distance (in meters) between the centers of adjacent atoms?
We assume the atoms as cube, so we use the volume of the cube to calculate the distance of the atoms.

V = </span>1.18 x 10-23 cm<span>³ = s</span>³
s = 2.28 x 10^-8 cm

After being thoroughly stirred at 10.°C, which mixture is heterogenous?(1) 25.0 g of KCl and 100. g of H2O
zheka24 [161]
The answer is (2) KNO3. This depends on the solubility of these four compounds at 10℃. For NaCl, it is 35.8 g, For NaNO3, 80.8 g. KCl, 31.2 g. KNO3, 21.9g. So only KNO3 is less than 25.0 g.
