Answer:

a) The reaction is first order, that is, order 1. Option C is correct.

b) The half life of the reaction is 23 minutes. Option B is correct

c) The initial rate of production of NO2 for this reaction is approximately = (3.7 × 10⁻⁴) M/min. Option has been cut off.

Explanation:

First of, we try to obtain the order of the reaction from the data provided.

t (minutes) [N2O5] (mol/L)

0 1.24x10-2

10 0.92x10-2

20 0.68x10-2

30 0.50x10-2

40 0.37x10-2

50 0.28x10-2

70 0.15x10-2

Using a trial and error mode, we try to obtain the order of the reaction. But let's define some terms.

C₀ = Initial concentration of the reactant

C = concentration of the reactant at any time.

k = rate constant

t = time since the reaction started

T(1/2) = half life

We Start from the first guess of zero order.

For a zero order reaction, the general equation is

C₀ - C = kt

k = (C₀ - C)/t

If the reaction is indeed a zero order reaction, the value of k we will obtain will be the same all through the set of data provided.

C₀ = 0.0124 M

At t = 10 minutes, C = 0.0092 M

k = (0.0124 - 0.0092)/10 = 0.00032 M/min

At t = 20 minutes, C = 0.0068 M

k = (0.0124 - 0.0068)/20 = 0.00028 M/min

At t = 30 minutes, C = 0.0050 M

k = (0.0124 - 0.005)/30 = 0.00024 M/min

It's evident the value of k isn't the same for the first 3 trials, hence, the reaction isn't a zero order reaction.

We try first order next, for first order reaction

In (C₀/C) = kt

k = [In (C₀/C)]/t

C₀ = 0.0124 M

At t = 10 minutes, C = 0.0092 M

k = [In (0.0124/0.0092)]/10 = 0.0298 /min

At t = 20 minutes, C = 0.0068 M

k = 0.030 /min

At t = 30 minutes, C = 0.0050 M

k = 0.0303

At t = 40 minutes

k = 0.0302 /min

At t = 50 minutes,

k = 0.0298 /min

At t = 60 minutes,

k = 0.031 /min

This shows that the reaction is indeed first order because all the answers obtained hover around the same value.

The rate constant to be taken will be the average of them all.

Average k = 0.0302 /min.

b) The half life of a first order reaction is related to the rate constant through this relation

T(1/2) = (In 2)/k

T(1/2) = (In 2)/0.0302

T(1/2) = 22.95 minutes = 23 minutes.

c) The initial rate of production of the product at the start of the reaction

Rate = kC (first order)

At the start of the reaction C = C₀ = 0.0124M and k = 0.0302 /min

Rate = 0.0302 × 0.0124 = 0.000374 M/min = (3.74 × 10⁻⁴) M/min

The reaction of glucose, c6h12o6, with oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water. what is the sum of the coefficients in the bala
Misha Larkins [42]

The balanced equation for the given reaction:

C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

So in the balanced equation the coefficients before glucose, oxygen, water and carbon dioxide are 1, 6, 6 and 6 respectively.

Therefore, the sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation

= 1 + 6 + 6 + 6

= 19

The correct answer is 19.

A student dissolved 5.00 g of Co(NO3)2 in enough water to make 100. mL of stock solution. He took 4.00 mL of the stock solution
Marianna [84]

Answer:

0.136g

Explanation:

A student dissolved 5.00 g of Co(NO3)2 in enough water to make 100. mL of stock solution. He took 4.00 mL of the stock solution and then diluted it with water to give 275. mL of a final solution. How many grams of NO3- ion are there in the final solution?

Co(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Co^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)

Initial mole of Co(NO3)2  =\frac{mass}{molar mass}

=\frac{5.00}{182.94} \\\\=0.02733mol

Mole of Co(NO3)2 in final solution

=\frac{4.00}{100}\times 0.02733\\\\=0.04\times 0.02733\\\\= 0.001093mol

Mole of  NO3- in final solution = 2 x Mole of Co(NO3)2

=2\times 0.001093\\\\=0.002186mol

Mass of  NO3- in final solution is mole x Molar mass of NO3

=0.002186\times62.01\\\\=0.136g
