Answer:

b. halogens

Explanation:

The elements of group 17 are called halogens. These are six elements Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Astatine. Halogens are very reactive these elements cannot be found free in nature. Their chemical properties are resemble greatly with each other. As we move down the group in periodic table size of halogens increases that's way fluorine is smaller in size as compared to other halogens elements. Their boiling points also increases down the group which changes their physical states.

Leya [2.2K]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The rate constant of a certain reaction is known to obey the Arrhenius equation, and to have an activation energy Ea = 71.0 kJ/mol . If the rate constant of this reaction is 6.7 M^(-1)*s^(-1) at 244.0 degrees Celsius, what will the rate constant be at 324.0 degrees Celsius?

Answer: The rate constant at 324°C is $61.29M^{-1}s^{-1}$

Explanation:

To calculate rate constant at two different temperatures of the reaction, we use Arrhenius equation, which is:

$\ln(\frac{K_{324^oC}}{K_{244^oC}})=\frac{E_a}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]$

where,

$K_{244^oC}$ = equilibrium constant at 244°C = $6.7M^{-1}s^{-1}$

$K_{324^oC}$ = equilibrium constant at 324°C = ?

$E_a$ = Activation energy = 71.0 kJ/mol = 71000 J/mol (Conversion factor: 1 kJ = 1000 J)

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

$T_1$ = initial temperature = $244^oC=[273+244]K=517K$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $324^oC=[273+324]K=597K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\ln(\frac{K_{324^oC}}{6.7})=\frac{71000J}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{517}-\frac{1}{597}]\\\\K_{324^oC}=61.29M^{-1}s^{-1}$

Hence, the rate constant at 324°C is $61.29M^{-1}s^{-1}$

What is the limiting reactant if 0.5 g Al is reacted with 3.5 g CuCl2?

DIA [1.3K]

The balanced equation for the above reaction is
2Al + 3CuCl₂ --> 2AlCl₃ + 3Cu
stoichiometry of Al to CuCl₂ is 2:3
limiting reactant is when the reactant is fully consumed in the reaction therefore amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
number of Al moles - 0.5 g / 27 g/mol = 0.019 mol
number of CuCl₂ moles - 3.5 g / 134.5 g/mol = 0.026 mol
if Al is the limiting reactant
if 2 mol of Al reacts with 3 mol of CuCl₂
then 0.019 mol of Al reacts with - 3/2 x 0.019 = 0.029 mol of CuCl₂
but only 0.026 mol of CuCl₂ is present
therefore CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant
and 0.026 mol of CuCl₂ reacts with - 0.026/3 x 2 = 0.017 mol of Al is required
but 0.019 mol of Al is present
therefore CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant and Al is in excess

Hydrogen gas is collected over water at 21 degrees Celsius. At 21 degrees Celsius the vapor pressure of water is 18.7 torr. If t

Alinara [238K]

Answer : The pressure of hydrogen gas is, 739.3 torr

Explanation :

As we are given:

Vapor pressure of water = 18.7 torr

Barometric pressure = 758 torr

Now we have to calculate the pressure of hydrogen gas.

Pressure of hydrogen gas = Barometric pressure - Vapor pressure of water

Pressure of hydrogen gas = 758 torr - 18.7 torr

Pressure of hydrogen gas = 739.3 torr

Therefore, the pressure of hydrogen gas is, 739.3 torr
