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

drek231 [11]

Explanation:

A) particles are close together in random positions with about equal kinetic energy and intermolecular forces.

These points are about liquid state.

B) particles are close together in fixed positions with low kinetic energy

These points satisfy the qualities of Solid state

C)particles are far apart with greater kinetic energy and low intermolecular forces.

The above qualities are for Gaseous state of matter

A) Liquid

B)Solid

Mazyrski [523]

The rate law for this reaction is [A]².

Balanced chemical reaction used in this experiment: A + B → P

The reaction rate is the speed at which reactants are converted into products.

Comparing first and second experiment, there is no change in initial rate. The concentration of reactant B is increased by double. Initial rate does not depands on concentration of reactant B.

Comparing first and third experiment, initial rate is nine times greater, while concentration of reactant A is three times greater. Conclusion is that concentration of reactant A is squared and the rate is [A]².

When 551. mg of a certain molecular compound X are dissolved in 100 g of benzonitrile (CH,CN), the freezing point of the solutio
arsen [322]

Answer:

1.12g/mol

Explanation:

The freezing point depression of a solvent for the addition of a solute follows the equation:

ΔT = Kf*m*i

<em>Where ΔT is change in temperature (Benzonitrile freezing point: -12.82°C; Freezing point solution: 13.4°C)</em>

<em>ΔT = 13.4°C - (-12.82) = 26.22°C</em>

<em>m is molality of the solution</em>

<em>Kf is freezing point depression constant of benzonitrile (5.35°Ckgmol⁻¹)</em>

<em>And i is Van't Hoff factor (1 for all solutes in benzonitrile)</em>

Replacing:

26.22°C = 5.35°Ckgmol⁻¹*m*1

4.90mol/kg = molality of the compound X

As the mass of the solvent is 100g = 0.100kg:

4.9mol/kg * 0.100kg = 0.490moles

There are 0.490 moles of X in 551mg = 0.551g, the molar mass (Ratio of grams and moles) is:

0.551g / 0.490mol

= 1.12g/mol

<em>This result has no sense but is the result by using the freezing point of the solution = 13.4°C. Has more sense a value of -13.4°C.</em>
