Answer:

  • <u>575,000 J</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Convert the mass of water into number of moles</u>

  • Molar mass of water: 18.015 g/mol

  • Number of moles, n = mass in grams / molar mass

        n = 255 g / 18.015 g/mol = 14.15 mol

<u>2) Use the formula E = n × ΔH vap</u>

This is, you have to multiply the molar ΔH vaporization by the number of moles to find the total energy to boil the given amount of water.

  • E = 14.15 mol × 40,650 J/mol = 575,395.5 J

<u>3) Round to the correct number of significant figures.</u>

The mass of water is the measurement with the least number of significant figures (3), so you must report the answer with 3 significant figures,

  • E = 575,000 J ← answer

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2(aq)) is proposed to follow a reaction mechanism of: Step 1: H2O2(aq) + Br–(aq)→H2O(
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Option (1) Br– is the catalyst, and the reaction follows a faster pathway with Br– than without

Explanation:

Let us consider the equation below:

Step 1:

H2O2(aq) + Br–(aq) → H2O(l) + BrO–(aq)

Step 2:

BrO–(aq) + H2O2(aq) → H2O(l) + O2(g) + Br–(aq)

From the above equation, we can see that Br– is unchanged.

This implies that Br– is the catalyst as catalyst does not take part in a chemical reaction but they create an alternate pathway to lower the activation energy in order for the reaction to proceed at a much faster rate to arrive at the products.
