For a first-order reaction, A → B, the rate coefficient was found to be 3.4 × 10-4 s-1 at 23 °C. After 5.0 h, the concentration

of A was found to be 0.00018 mol L-1. What was the original concentration of A?

Answer:

the original concentration of A = 0.0817092  M

Explanation:

A reaction is considered to be of first order it it strictly obeys the graphical equation method.

k_1 = \dfrac{2.303}{t}log \dfrac{a}{a-x}

where;

k = the specific rate coefficient  = 3.4 × 10⁻⁴ s⁻¹

t = time   = 5.0 h = 5.0 × 3600 = 18000 seconds

a = initial concentration = ???

a - x = remaining concentration of initial concentration at time t = 0.00018 mol L⁻¹

3.4 \times 10^{-4}= \dfrac{2.303}{18000}log \dfrac{a}{0.00018}

3.4 \times 10^{-4}= 1.27944 \times 10^{-4} \times log \dfrac{a}{0.00018}

\dfrac{3.4 \times 10^{-4}}{1.27944 \times 10^{-4}}=   log \dfrac{a}{0.00018}

2.657=   log \dfrac{a}{0.00018}

10^{2.657}= \dfrac{a}{0.00018}

453.94 = \dfrac{a}{0.00018}

a =453.94 \times 0.00018

a = 0.0817092  M

Thus , the original concentration of A = 0.0817092  M

A 3.140 molal solution of NaCl is prepared. How many grams of NaCl are present in a sample containing 2.692 kg of water
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

494.49 g of NaCl.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Molality of NaCl = 3.140 m

Mass of water = 2.692 kg

Mass of NaCl =.?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of NaCl in the solution.

Molality is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit kilogram of solvent. Mathematically, it is expressed as

Molality = mole of solute /Kg of solvent

With the above formula, we can obtain the number of mole NaCl in the solution as follow:

Molality of NaCl = 3.140 m

Mass of water = 2.692 kg

Mole of NaCl =..?

Molality = mole of solute /Kg of solvent

3.140 = mole of NaCl /2.692

Cross multiply

Mole of NaCl = 3.140 x 2.692

Mole of NaCl = 8.45288 moles

Finally, we shall covert 8.45288 moles of NaCl to grams. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of NaCl = 8.45288 moles

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mass of NaCl =.?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

8.45288 = mass of NaCl /58.5

Cross multiply

Mass of NaCl = 8.45288 × 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 494.49 g.

Therefore, 494.49 g of NaCl are present in the solution.
