Pure Substance- Element

Explanation:

Pure Substance VS. Mixture:
A pure Substance CANNOT be separated by physical changes, but a Mixture can.

PURE SUBSTANCE: Element VS. Compound:
An Element is one simple atom while a compound is two or more.
Example: Al (Aluminum) is an Element. CaCl (Calcium Chloride) is a compound.
You can split a compound with chemical changes because if you were to take the example, it would be a Calcium atom and a Chlorine atom.
You CANNOT split a single atom (Element) unless you want to make an atomic bomb which takes a lot of energy and you don’t want to destroy the whole world.

MIXTURE: Homogeneous VS. Heterogeneous:

Homo- mixed; cannot differentiate pieces
Hetero- can differentiate pieces
EX: homo- ketchup (can you see the difference in the vinegar and tomato paste? No)
Hetero- chicken noodle soup (there’s broth, chicken, peas, carrots, and other things)

Consider the second-order reaction:

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Initial concentration of HI is 5 mol/L.

The concentration of HI after $4.53\times 10^{10} s$ is 0.00345 mol/L.

Explanation:

$2HI(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+I_2(g)
$

Rate Law: $k[HI]^2
$

Rate constant of the reaction = k = $6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s$

Order of the reaction = 2

Initial rate of reaction = $R=1.6\times 10^{-7} Mol/L s$

Initial concentration of HI = $[A_o]$

$1.6\times 10^{-7} mol/L s=(6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s)[HI]^2$

$[A_o]=5 mol/L$

Final concentration of HI after t = [A]

t = $4.53\times 10^{10} s$

Integrated rate law for second order kinetics is given by:

$\frac{1}{[A]}=kt+\frac{1}{[A_o]}$

$\frac{1}{[A]}=6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s\times 4.53\times 10^{10} s+\frac{1}{[5 mol/L]}$

$[A]=0.00345 mol/L$

The concentration of HI after $4.53\times 10^{10} s$ is 0.00345 mol/L.

Why are the oxidation and reduction half-reactions separated in an<br> electrochemical cell?

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<h2>It makes the current viable enough to pass through an exterior wire.</h2>

Explanation:

Electrochemical cells primarily comprise of two half-cells. These half-cells assist in isolating the oxidation and reduction half-reactions. These two reactions are linked by a wire which allows the current to move from one edge to the other. The oxidation at the anode and the reduction take place at the cathode and the addition of a salt bridge helps in completing the circuit and permits the current to flow and leads to the generation of electricity.
