Answer:

Explanation:

In ideal solutions, the interactions between solute - solvent are approximately the same as those of solute - solute and solvent - solvent, that is the interactions are to be practically indistintiguishable after disolution.

The moment we have a release of energy (the solution feels warm) we are to conclude that there are strong interactions between the water and methanol molecules so we would expect the solution to be non ideal.

The reason for the interactions is the presence of hydrogen bonds between methanol and water.

The tabulated data were collected for this reaction:

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

ai) Rate law, $Rate = k [CH_3 Cl] [Cl_2]^{0.5}$

aii) Rate constant, k = 1.25

b) Overall order of reaction = 1.5

Explanation:

Equation of Reaction:

$CH_{3} Cl (g) + 3 Cl_2 (g) \rightarrow CCl_4 (g) + 3 HCl (g)$

If $A + B \rightarrow C + D$ , the rate of backward reaction is given by:

$Rate = k [A]^{a} [B]^{b}\\k = \frac{Rate}{ [A]^{a} [B]^{b}}\\k = \frac{Rate}{ [CH_3 Cl]^{a} [Cl_2]^{b}}$

k is constant for all the stages

Using the information provided in lines 1 and 2 of the table:

$0.014 / [0.05]^a [0.05]^b = 00.029/ [0.100]^a [0.05]^b\\0.014 / [0.05]^a [0.05]^b = 00.029/ [2*0.05]^a [0.05]^b\\0.014 / = 0.029/ 2^a\\2^a = 2.07\\a = 1$

Using the information provided in lines 3 and 4 of the table and insering the value of a:

$0.041 / [0.100]^a [0.100]^b = 0.115 / [0.200]^a [0.200]^b\\0.041 / [0.100]^a [0.100]^b = 0.115 / [2 * 0.100]^a [2 * 0.100]^b\\$

$0.041 = 0.115 / [2 ]^a [2]^b\\ \[[2 ]^a [2]^b = 0.115/0.041\\ \[[2 ]^a [2]^b = 2.80\\\[[2 ]^1 [2]^b = 2.80\\\[[2]^b = 1.40\\b = \frac{ln 1.4}{ln 2} \\b = 0.5$

The rate law is: $Rate = k [CH_3 Cl] [Cl_2]^{0.5}$

The rate constant $k = \frac{Rate}{ [CH_3 Cl]^{a} [Cl_2]^{b}}$ then becomes:

$k = 0.014 / ( [0.050] [0.050]^(0.5) )\\k = 1.25$

b) Overall order of reaction = a + b

Overall order of reaction = 1 + 0.5

Overall order of reaction = 1.5

A saturated solution of manganese(II) hydroxide was prepared, and an acid–base titration was performed to determine its KspKsp a

trapecia [35]

Answer:

10.945 x 10^-4

Explanation:

Balanced equation:

Mn(OH)2 + 2 HCl --> MnCl2 + H2O

it takes 2 moles HCL for each mole Mn(OH)2

Next find the molarity of the Mn(OH)2 solution

= (1 mole Mn(OH)2 / 2 mole HCl) X (0.0020 mole HCl / 1000ml) X (4.86 ml)

= 4.86 x 10^-3 mole

this is now dissolved in (70 + 4.86) = 74.86 ml or 0.07486 L

thus [Mn(OH)2] = 4.86 x 10^-3 mole / 0.07486 L = 0.064921 M

Ksp = [Mn2+][OH-]^2 = 4x^3 = 4(0.064921)^3 = 10.945 x 10^-4
