This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

The conversion of cyclopropane to propene occurs with a first-order rate constant of 2.42 × 10⁻² hr⁻¹. How long will it take for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from an initial concentration 0.080 mol/L to 0.053 mol/L?

Answer : The time taken will be, 17.0 hr

Explanation :

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

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

where,

k = rate constant  = 2.42\times 10^{-2}\text{ hr}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = ?

a = initial concentration of the reactant  = 0.080 M

a - x = concentration left = 0.053 M

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

t=\frac{2.303}{2.42\times 10^{-2}}\log\frac{0.080}{0.053}

t=17.0\text{ hr}

Therefore, the time taken will be, 17.0 hr

H2O+O2=H202, how would I balance this equation?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

2H2O2→2H2O+O2

Explanation:

This reaction is of the spontaneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen.

Add 2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide and 2 molecules of water. Since oxygen is naturally diatomic, the total number of atoms of each element is now the same on both sides of the equation so it is balanced.

2H2O2→2H2O+O2

What are possible reasons for a percent yield that is under 100%
matrenka [14]

Answer:

              Percentage Yield is given as,

                 %age Yield  =  Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

This shows that the %age yield is directly depending upon the actual yield. And most of the time the percentage yield is less than 100 % because of the following factors.

Impure Starting Materials:

                                           If the starting materials (reactants) are not pure then reaction will not completely form the desired product. Different by products will form which will decrease the %age yield.

Incomplete Reactions:

                                     Not all reactions go to completion. In many reactions the starting material after some time stops forming the product due to different conditions. Some reactions attain equilibrium and stop increasing the amount of product. While, in some reactions a by products (like water) formed often react with the product to give a reverse reactions. Hence, the chemistry of reactions also causes the decrease in %age yield.

Handling:

               Another major reason for decrease in yield is handling the product. Always some of the product is lost during the workup of the reaction like, taking TLC, doing solvent extraction, doing column chromatography, taking characterization spectrums. So, we can conclude that the %age yield will always be less than 100%.
