Most mixtures are not physical changes.

True

False FALSE when I add solid NaCl salt to water I no longer have a solid salt, I have a solution of sodium and chlorid ions in liquid water. this is physical change

Chemical Changes do not create a new substance.

True

False FALSE 0ne of the proofs that you have a chemical change is the presence of a new substance

Fire is an example of a Chemical Change.

True TRUE fire is oxygen reacting wiIh mattter to form new compounds

False

Explosions are not chemical changes.

It depends on the explosion if I blow up a balloon until it POPS!! that is physical chame. If I light a firecracker and it explodes, that is a chemical change of oxygen reacting with hot gunpowder

A change in color and odor are both examples of chemical changi

I would rewrite the question as

A change in color and odor both INDICATE a chemical change

and that is

True TRUE

False

True Fire is an example of a Chemical Change.

True

False

Explosions are not chemical changes.

Name 3 sources of carbohydrates for the production of an alcoholic drink

icang [17]

Answer:An alcoholic drink is a drink that contains ethanol, a type of alcohol produced by fermentation of grains, fruits, or other sources of sugar. The consumption of alcohol plays an important social role in many cultures. Most countries have laws regulating the production, sale, and consumption of alcoholic beverages.

Explanation: vodka the preferred alcoholic beverage of choice among alcoholics? #3 Doesn't make you feel bloated or full like beer does. It goes down quickly and smooth. #4 Gets you drunk just as fast as any other hard liquor can, and obviously much faster than beer or wine.

The gas-phase reaction follows an elementary rate law and is to be carried out first in a PFR and then in a separate experiment

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The activation energy is $=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Explanation:

The gas phase reaction is as follows.

$A \rightarrow B+C$

The rate law of the reaction is as follows.

$-r_{A}=kC_{A}$

The reaction is carried out first in the plug flow reactor with feed as pure reactant.

From the given,

Volume "V" = $10dm^{3}$

Temperature "T" = 300 K

Volumetric flow rate of the reaction $v_{o}=5dm^{3}s$

Conversion of the reaction "X" = 0.8

The rate constant of the reaction can be calculate by the following formua.

$V= \frac{v_{0}}{k}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]$

Rearrange the formula is as follows.

$k= \frac{v_{0}}{V}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]............(1)$

The feed has Pure A, mole fraction of A in feed $y_{A_{o}}$ is 1.

$\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta$

$\delta$ = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacte.

$=1(2-1)=1$

Substitute the all given values in equation (1)

$k=\frac{5m^{3}/s}{10dm^{3}}[(1+1)ln \frac{1}{1-0.8}-1 \times 0.8] = 1.2s^{-1}$

Therefore, the rate constant in case of the plug flow reacor at 300K is $1.2s^{-1}$

The rate constant in case of the CSTR can be calculated by using the formula.

$\frac{V}{v_{0}}= \frac{X(1+\epsilon X)}{k(1-X)}.............(2)$

The feed has 50% A and 50% inerts.

Hence, the mole fraction of A in feed $y_{A_{o}}$ is 0.5

$\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta$

$\delta$ = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacted.

$=0.5(2-1)=0.5$

Substitute the all values in formula (2)

$\frac{10dm^{3}}{5dm^{3}}=\frac{0.8(1+0.5(0.8))}{k(1-0.8)}=2.8s^{-1}$

Therefore, the rate constant in case of CSTR comes out to be $2.8s^{-1}$

The activation energy of the reaction can be calculated by using formula

$k(T_{2})=k(T_{1})exp[\frac{E}{R}(\frac{1}{T_{1}}-\frac{1}{T_{2}})]$

In the above reaction rate constant at the two different temperatures.

Rearrange the above formula is as follows.

$E= R \times(\frac{T_{1}T_{2}}{T_{1}-T_{2}})ln\frac{k(T_{2})}{k(T_{1})}$

Substitute the all values.

$=1.987cal/molK(\frac{300K \times320K}{320K \times300K})ln \frac{2.8}{1.2}=8.081 \times10^{3}cal\,mol^{-1}$

$=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Therefore, the activation energy is $=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$
