Answer:

Explanation:

Significant figures are the number of digits in a value, often a measurement, that to the degree of accuracy of the value. All non-zero numbers ARE significant. ...

Zeros between two non-zero digits ARE significant. ...

Leading zeros are NOT significant. ...

Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal are significant. ...

Consider the following reaction between mercury(II) chloride and oxalate ion.

Alina [70]

<u>Answer:</u> The rate law of the reaction is $\text{Rate}=k[HgCl_2][C_2O_4^{2-}]^2$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$2 HgCl_2(aq.)+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow 2Cl^-(aq.)+2CO_2(g)+Hg_2Cl_2(s)$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[HgCl_2]^a[C_2O_4^{2-}]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to $HgCl_2$

b = order with respect to $C_2O_4^{2-}$

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$3.2\times 10^{-5}=k(0.164)^a(0.15)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$2.9\times 10^{-4}=k(0.164)^a(0.45)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

$1.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.082)^a(0.45)^b$ ....(3)

Expression for rate law for fourth observation:

$4.8\times 10^{-5}=k(0.246)^a(0.15)^b$ ....(4)

Dividing 2 from 1, we get:

$\frac{2.9\times 10^{-4}}{3.2\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{(0.164)^a(0.45)^b}{(0.164)^a(0.15)^b}\\\\9=3^b\\b=2$

Dividing 2 from 3, we get:

$\frac{2.9\times 10^{-4}}{1.4\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{(0.164)^a(0.45)^b}{(0.082)^a(0.45)^b}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[HgCl_2]^1[C_2O_4^{2-}]^2$

Explain the terms physical properties of metals Malleability and ductility, and how they used in daily life situation ?

EastWind [94]

Answer:

Malleability means that metals can be hammered into sheets and foils. For example, aluminium foils are used for wrapping food stuffs, silver foils are used for decorative purposes on sweets and fruits. Ductility means that metals can be drawn into wires. Gold and silver wires are used in ornaments.

and For jewellery and ornaments, gold, platinum and silver are being used. For building purposes, iron and steel can be used. Iron and aluminium are used as utensils. The thermometer uses mercury and helps to monitor the temperature.
