Frequency, f = v / λ
f = 2.998 * 10⁸ / 3.55*10⁻⁸
f = 8.445 * 10¹⁵ Hz.
The reaction rate or rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time.
Reactions that happen quickly have a high rate of reaction. For example, the chemical weathering of rocks is a very slow reaction: it has a low rate of reaction. Explosions are very fast reactions: they have a high rate of reaction. Rate of reaction is an example of a compound measure.
In an endothermic reaction products are <u>HIGHER </u>than reactants in potential energy and <u>LESS </u>stable.
Explanation:
Energy is input into the reaction in an endothermic reaction. This means the products are of a higher energy level than the reactants. Therefore the reaction increases Gibb's free energy and reduces entropy. Remember in thermodynamic stability involves an increase in entropy and a decrease in Gibbs free energy. Therefore the products are less stable than the reactants. This is why endothermic reactions do not occur spontaneously like exothermic reactions.
You must know the concentration of the acetic acid. Suppose the concentration is 0.1 M. The solution is as follows:
CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺
I 0.1 0 0
C -x +x +x
E 0.1 - x x x
Ka = (x)(x)/(0.1 - x)
1.8×10⁻⁵ = x²/(0.1 - x)
Solving for x,
x = 1.333×10⁻³ = H⁺
pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(1.333×10⁻³)
pH = 2.88
