The rate of a chemical reaction can be raised by increasing the surface area of a solid reactant. This is done by cutting the substance into small pieces, or by grinding it into a powder.
Following reaction arise between Br2 and Cl2
Br2 + Cl2 → 2BrCl
(1mole) (1mole) (2moles)
From above balanced reaction, it can be seen that 1 mole of Br2 reacts with 1 mole of Cl2 to form 2 mole of BrCl
Thus, when <span>2.74 mol Cl2 reacts with excess Br2, 2.74 X 2 = 5.48 moles of BrCl will be formed. </span>
- Get 3 cups of water at the exact same temperature, using the thermometer to check.
- Label the cups as ‘whole’, ‘pieces’, and ‘crushed’
- Next, get something to dissolve, in this case, polident. Take one of the polident tablets and break it into 4 pieces, and set it aside.
- Take another polident tablet and this time put it into a different cup, and crush it. Set it aside.
- Keep the last tablet whole.
- Set up your stopwatch and drop the polident tablet that is whole in the cup labeled ‘whole’, starting the stopwatch at the same time.
- Watch the cup and see when the tablet is fully dissolved, then stop the stopwatch.
- Record the time in the table.
- Repeat steps 6-8 for both the ‘pieces’ and ‘crushed’ tablets.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need more help, or if you think my answer is incorrect. Brainliest would be MUCH appreciated. Have a great day!
Stay Brainy!
