Answer:3480s⁻¹

Explanation:We can solve the following problem using the Arrhenius equation.

Arrhenius equation is given by:

K=Aexp[-Ea/RT]

A=Pre-exponential factor or frequency factor

Ea=Activation energy

R=Ideal gas constant

T=Temperature

K=Rate constant

From the Arrhenius equation we can see that  the rate constant K is related with the activation energy and frequency factor.

In the question we are given with the following data:

Ea=42KJ/mol=42x 1000 J/mol

A=8.0×10¹ per second

T=298K

R=8.314J/K mol

when we substitute these given values in Arrhenius equation

K=A{exp[-Ea \div RT]}\\K=8\ \times10^{10} s^{-1}{exp[-42000\div 8.314\times298]}\\K=8\ \times10^{10} s^{-1}{exp[-16.95]}\\K=4.35\times10^{^{-8}}\times8.0\times10^{^{10}}s^{-1}\\K=34.8\times10^{2}s^{-1}\\

K=3480s⁻¹

The value of rate constant obtained is 3480s⁻¹.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The mass of

4.6

×

10

24

atoms of silver is approximately 820 g.

Explanation:

In order to determine the mass of a given number of atoms of an element, identify the equalities between moles of the element and atoms of the element, and between moles of the element and its molar mass.

1

mole atoms Ag=6.022xx10

23

atoms Ag

Molar mass of Ag =#"107.87 g/mol"#

Multiply the given atoms of silver by

A possible mechanism for the gas phase reaction of NO and H2 is as follows: Step 1 2NO N2O2 Step 2 N2O2 + H2 N2O + H2O Step 3 N2
mel-nik [20]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Steps involved for the given reaction will be as follows.

Step 1: 2NO \Leftrightarrow N_{2}O_{2}    (fast)

Rate expression for step 1 is as follows.

               Rate = k [NO]^{2}

Step 2: N_{2}O_{2} + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2}O + H_{2}O

This step 2 is a slow step. Hence, it is a rate determining step.

Step 3. N_{2}O + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2} + H_{2}O    (fast)

Here, N_{2}O_{2} is intermediate in nature.

All the steps are bimolecular and it is a second order reaction. Also, there is no catalyst present in this reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement step 1 is the rate determining step, concerning this mechanism is not directly supported by the information provided.

Is potassium fluoride a covalent bond or ionic bond
Ivahew [28]

It's an ionic bond! Potassium is a cation, or a metal with a positive charge, and fluoride is an anion, or a nonmetal with a negative charge.

A covalent bond is the bond between two nonmetals.

Hope this helped!
