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

If a system performs 147 kJ of work while receiving 47 kJ of heat, what is change in its internal energy?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

-100 kJ

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the first law of thermodynamics, which states that:

\Delta U = Q-W

where:

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of a system

Q is the heat absorbed/released by the system (it is positive if absorbed by the system, negative if released by the system)

W is the work done by the system (it is positive if done by the system, negative if done on the system)

For the system in this problem we have:

W = +147 kJ is the work done by the system

Q = +47 kJ is the heat absorbed by the system

So , its change in internal energy is:

\Delta U = +47 - (+147) =-100 kJ

Describe each of the following as a physical or chemical property.
lidiya [134]

Explanation:

Physical change -

It refers to any change during any process , where there is no new substance is formed , is referred to as a physical change.

Any change in the state of matter is characterised under physical change.

Chemical change -  

It refers to any change in a chemical process , where there is formation of any new substance , is referred to as a chemical change .

From the options given in the question,

1. Apple turning brown , on air exposure , is an example of chemical change .

2. The physical state of mercury is liquid ,  is an example of physical change .

3. phosphorus burns on exposed to air , is an example of chemical change .

4. The gas Neon is colorless at the room temperature , is  is an example of physical change .
