Answer:

K= 0.06611

Explanation: The rate of reaction is defined as the change in concentration of any of reactant or products per unit time. From the given reaction, the rate of reaction may be equal to the rate of disappearance of reactant which is equal to the rate of appearance of products.

The average rate of disappearance of H2O2 over the time period from t=0 min at 8.92×10^-2 to t=9.63min at 4.72×10^-2 is given as -4.36×10^-3Mmin-1.

We can say:

•The initial concentration [H2O2]o is 8.92×10^-2M

•The concentration at time t. [H2O2]t is 4.72×10^-2

•The time (t) is 9.63 min

The expression of rate constant for a first order reaction is shown as

K=2.303/t log[H2O2]o/ [H2O2]t

Substitute the values of t, [H2O2]o and [H2O2]t in the equation of rate constant.

K=2.303/9.63 log [8.92×10^-2]/ [4.72×10^-2]

K= 0.2391 (log 8.92×10^-2 - log 4.72×10^-2)

K= 0.2391 [-1.0496-(-1.3261)]

K= 0.2391 (-1.0496+1.3261)

K= 0.2391 (0.2765)

K= 0.06611

Since the value of k is almost constant, the decomposition of H2O2 is a first order reaction.

ale4655 [162]
The second one.
Remember, temperature is the AVERAGE kinetic energy. So, looking for highest average kinetic energy means looking for highest temperature, which is 55.
Note: the amount of the substance does not determine the average kinetic energy.

Answer:

The equation is: CuCO3(s) → CuO(s) + CO2(g)

Explanation:

Copper carbonate decomposes at high temperatures, generating the products carbon dioxide (CO2) and copper oxide (II) CuO. In this type of decomposition reaction, a substance is broken generating two different compounds.

saw5 [17]
B is true because liquids are still more compact than gases, although they are loose, they aren't completely free. They also don't have a definite volume, making them assume the shape of their container. As for compression, liquids are harder to compress compared to gases.
