If a sample is packed poorly, the sample will not heat evenly and will take longer to melt.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

30 kJ

Explanation:

Arrhenius equation is given by:

$k=Aexp(-Ea/RT)\\$

Here, k is rate constant, A is Pre-exponential factor, Ea is activation energy and T is temperature.

taking natural log of both side

ln k = ln A - Ea/RT

In Arrhenius equation, A, R and T are constant.

Therefore,

$ln\frac{k_2}{k_1} =\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}$

$Ea_1-Ea_2$ is the lowering in activation energy by enzyme,

R = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = 37°C + 273.15 = 310 K

$\frac{k_2}{k_1} =1\times 10^5$

$ln 1\times 10^5 =\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}\\{Ea_1-Ea_2} = 11.512 \times 8.314 \times 310\\=29670\ J\\=30\ kJ$

Which of the following best describes what happens when molecular compounds melt? A.) Molecules separate into their component at

Semenov [28]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. When a molecular compound melts, they undergo the process of phase change from solid to liquid therefore m<span>olecules arranged in a regular pattern change to an irregular pattern. Hope this answers the question.</span>
