Calculate the fraction of atoms in a sample of argon gas at 400 K that have an energy of 10.0 kJ or greater.

Chemistry

Answer:

The answer to this can be arrived at by clculating the mole fraction of atoms higher than the activation energy of 10.0 kJ by pluging in the values given into the Arrhenius equation. The answer to this is 20.22 moles of Argon have energy equal to or greater than 10.0 kJ

Explanation:

From Arrhenius equation showing the temperature dependence of reaction rates.

K = Ae^{\frac{Ea}{RT} } where

k = rate constant

A = Frequency or pre-exponential factor

Ea   =       energy of activation

R = The universal gas constant

T = Kelvin absolute temperature

we have

f = e^{\frac{Ea}{RT} }

Where

f = fraction of collision with energy higher than the activation energy

Ea = activation energy = 10.0kJ = 10000J

R = universal gas constant = 8.31 J/mol.K

T = Absolute temperature in Kelvin = 400K

In the Arrhenius equation k = Ae^(-Ea/RT), the factor A is the frequency factor and the component e^(-Ea/RT) is the portion of possible collisions with high enough energy for a reaction to occur at the a specified temperature  

Plugging in the values into the equation relating f to activation energy we get

f = e^{\frac{10000J}{(8.31J/((mol)(K)))(400K)} } or f = e^{3.01} = 20.22 moles of argon have an energy of 10.0 kJ or greater

What is the solution to the problem expressed to he correct number of significant figures? 12.0/7.11
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer: The solution to the problem expressed to he correct number of significant figures is 1.69

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

The rule applied for multiplication and division is :

The least precise number determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

As 12.0 has 3 significant digits and 7.11 also has 3 significant digits, the answer would also contain 3 significant digits.

For \frac{12.0}{7.11}=1.69

Thus the solution to the problem expressed to he correct number of significant figures is 1.69

Why does 5060 have three significant figures?
Morgarella [4.7K]
<h2>5060 have three significant figures : Explanation given below </h2>

Explanation:

Significant figures

The significant figures (also known as the significant digits and decimal places) of a number are digits that possess certain  meaning .

It  includes all digits except: zeros

Rules to find significant figures

1.All non-zero digits are considered significant. For example, 23  has two significant figures.

2.Zeros in between two non-zero digits are significant: like in 202.1201  has seven significant figures.

3.Zeros to the left of the significant figures are not significant. For example, .000021 has two significant figures, zeros have no value .

4.Zeros to the right of the significant figures are significant.

That is the reason in number 5060 , it has 3 significant figures .

Which of the following is the major product in the electrophilic addition of HCl to (3S)-2,3-dimethylpent-1-ene?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

(3S)-2-chloro-2,3-dimethylpentane is produced exclusively.

Explanation:

Electrophilic addition to (3S)-2,3-dimethylpent-1-ene proceeds through a carbocationic intermediate.

In the first step, H^{+} adds onto double bond to produce more stable tertiary carbocation. (protonation)

In the second step, Cl^{-} adds onto carbocation to produce (3S)-2-chloro-2,3-dimethylpentane exclusively.(nucleophilic addition)

So, option (d) is correct.
