Answer : The value of rate constant is, 0.0949\text{ min}^{-1}

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

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

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = ?

t = time passed by the sample  = 20 min

a = let initial amount of the reactant  = 100 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 100 - 85 = 15 g

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

k=\frac{2.303}{20}\log\frac{100}{15}

k=0.0949\text{ min}^{-1}

Therefore, the value of rate constant is, 0.0949\text{ min}^{-1}

How do chemicals in a plant relate to bath bombs?
OLga [1]

When a bath bomb comes in contact with water, the baking soda and citric acid react to make carbon dioxide bubbles. This is an acid–base reaction, where baking soda (also called sodium bicarbonate) is a weak base and citric acid is a weak acid.

Which of the following does not apply to water molecules?
serg [7]

Answer:

It is the last one.

Explanation:

Water molecules are polar, they have cohesive properties, and water is less dense when it is solid than when it is a liquid, that is why ice floats in liquid water. However, water is a very good solvent, it can dissolve many solids, including sugar, salt, and other hydrophilic substances.

Fill in the coefficients that will balance the following reaction a0h2so4 + a1koh → a2k2so4 + a3hoh
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
A0 = 1
a1 = 2
a2 = 1
a3 = 2

This can be solved by guessing and checking and making sure that all atoms on the left side are accounted for on the right side. Both sides must have the same amount of atoms or the balancing is not correct.
