A reaction mechanism is defined as the sequence of reaction steps that define the pathway from reactants to products. Each step

in a mechanism is an elementary reaction, which describes a single molecular event of usually one or two molecules interacting.
The rate law for an overall reaction is the rate law for the slowest step in the mechanism, which is directly related to the stoichiometric coefficients of the reactants.

The exception to this rule occurs when the slowest step contains intermediates. In these cases, the slowest step is usually preceded by an equilibrium step, which can be used to substitute for the intermediates in the overall rate law.

Part A

What is the rate law for the following mechanism in terms of the overall rate constant k?

Step1:Step2:A+BB+C⇌→CD(fast)(slow)
Express your answer in terms of k and the necessary concentrations (e.g., k*[A]^3*[D]).

Consider the reaction

2X2Y2+Z2⇌2X2Y2Z

which has a rate law of

rate= k[X2Y2][Z2]

Answer: (a) K *[A][B]^2

(b) The answer is B

Explanation:

A)

Step1:A+B<--> C (fast)

Step2: B+C→D(slow)

Rate depends on slowest step.

so,

rate = k' [B][C] ...eqn 1

But C is intermediate.so use step 1

Since 1st step is an equilibrium,

Kc = [C] /[A][B]

so,

[C] = Kc [A][B] ...eqn 2

put eqn 2 in eqn 1

rate = k' *[B] * Kc [A][B]

= k'Kc*[A][B]^2

= K *[A][B]^2 {writing k'Kc = K}

Answer: K *[A][B]^2

B)

Answer is B

Since rate depends on slowest step.

if slowest step is:

X2Y2+Z2→X2Y2Z+Z

then only,

rate= k[X2Y2][Z2]

Answer: B

how much heat, in terms in q, would it take to produce the change in temperature indicated in the picture? what is your reasonin
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

1. q.

2. 2q.

3. 3q.

4. 6q.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the specific heat capacity of the liquid. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 25 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Heat (Q) = q

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Q = MCΔT

q = 25 × C × 20

q = 500C

Divide both side by 500

C = q/500

C = 2×10¯³ qg°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of liquid is 2×10¯³ qg°C

Now, we shall determine the heat required to produce the various change in temperature as follow:

2. Mass (m) = 50 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 2×10¯³ qg°C

Heat (Q) =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 50 × 2×10¯³ × 20

Q = 2q.

Therefore, the heat required is 2q.

3. Mass (m) = 25 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 60 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 2×10¯³ qg°C

Heat (Q) =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 25 × 2×10¯³ × 60

Q = 3q.

Therefore, the heat required is 3q.

4. Mass (m) = 50 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 60 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 2×10¯³ qg°C

Heat (Q) =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 50 × 2×10¯³ × 60

Q = 6q.

Therefore, the heat required is 6q.

Acetylsalicylic acid (C9H8O4) is a monoprotic acid commonly known as aspirin. A typical aspirin tablet, however, contains only a
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

6 grains

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction between NaOH and aspirin is;

C9H8O4(aq) + NaOH (aq) ------>C9H7O4Na(aq) + H2O(l)

Amount of NaOH reacted = concentration × volume = 0.1466 M × 14.40/1000 L = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Given that aspirin and NaOH react in a mole ratio of 1:1 from the balanced reaction equation above, the number of moles of aspirin reacted is 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Hence mass of aspirin reacted = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles × 180.2 g/mol = 0.38 g

If 1 grain = 0.0648 g

x grains = 0.38 g

x= 0.38 g/0.0648 g

x= 6 grains

Name the plant cell organelle where<br> photosynthesis occurs.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

chloroplast organelle

Answer. The photosynthesis process takes place in the chloroplast organelle in the growing tissues. As the chlorophyll pigment is available in the chloroplast organelle which is the main photosynthetic pigment, with the help of the molecules they capture the energy of light.

Explanation:

chloroplasts

In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane, that forms long folds within the organelle.

2C4 H10 + 13O2 -→ 8CO2 + 10H2O If 356 moles of O2 are available to react, how many moles of CO2 will fom?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Answer:

The mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ is 2 : 8, which  simplifies to 1 : 4.

Explanation:

The mole ratio is the relative proportion of the moles of products or reactants that participate in the reaction according to the chemical equation.

The chemical equation given is:

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O

Once you check that the equation is balanced, you can set the mole ratios for all the reactants and products. The coefficients used in front of each reactant and product, in the balanced chemical equation, tells the mole ratios.

In this case, they are: 2 mol C₄H₁₀ :  13 mol O₂ : 8 mol CO₂ : 10 mol H₂O

Since you are asked about the mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ it is:

2 mol C₄H₁₀ : 8 mol CO₂ , which dividing by 2, simplifies to

1 mol C₄H₁₀ : 4 mol CO₂, or

1 : 2.

If 23.5 g of ammonia (NH3) is dissolved in 1.0 L of solution, what is the molarity?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

1.38 M

Explanation:

Need to use the Molarity equation M=n/L

23.5g/ 17.031g/mol NH3 = 1.38 moles

1.38 moles/ 1.0 L = 1.38 M
