A decomposition reaction, with a rate that is observed to slow down as the reaction proceeds, has a half-life that does not depe

nd on the initial concentration of the reactant. Which statement is most likely true for this reaction?
O A doubling of the initial concentration of the reactant results in a quadrupling of the rate.
O A plot of the natural log of the concentration of the reactant as a function of time is linear.
O The half-life of the reaction increases as the initial concentration increases.

Answer: A plot of the natural log of the concentration of the reactant as a function of time is linear.

Explanation:

Since it was explicitly stated in the question that the half life is independent of the initial concentration of the reactant then the third option must necessarily be false. Also, the plot of the natural logarithm of the concentration of reactant against time for a first order reaction is linear. In a first order reaction, the half life is independent of the initial concentration of the reactant. Hence the answer.

In the equilibrium constant expression for the reaction below what is the correct exponent for N2O4?
irga5000 [103]
As we have the balanced reaction equation is:

N2O4 (g) ↔ 2NO2(g)

from this balanced equation, we can get the equilibrium constant expression

KC = [NO2]^2[N2O4]^1

from this expression, we can see that [NO2 ] is with 2 exponent of  the stoichiometric and we can see that from the balanced equation as NO2
is 2NO2 in the balanced equation.

and [N2O4] is with 1 exponent of the stoichiometric and we can see that from the balanced equation as N2O4 is 1 N2O4 in the balanced equation. 

∴ the correct exponent for N2O4 in the equilibrium constant expression is 1

Solute particles can be:____
Reptile [31]

Solute particles can be atoms, ions or molecules.

Explanation:

Solute is the material which has to be mixed in the solvent to prepare a solution. So the concentration of solute should be less than the solvent. Also the solute and solvent should be of same nature other they will not dissolve with each other. The solute can be made up of atoms, ions or molecules depending upon the solvent. If the solvent concentration is in moles, then the solute concentration can be taken as atoms, ions or molecules. Also the saturation point plays a main role in deciding the kind of particles taken for the solute.

Complete the following equations : H3PO4 = 3H+ --------------- CaSO4 = Ca 2+ ---------------- (2) b) Write the formulae of the s
jeka94

Answer:

H₃PO₄ → 3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻

CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

b. CaCl₂

Explanation:

When H₃PO₄ is dissolved in water, there are produced the H⁺ and PO₄³⁻ ions. The equation is:

H₃PO₄ → 3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻

In the same way, CaSO₄ is dissolved in:

CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

b. Now, in a reaction of an acid (HCl) and a base (Ca(OH)₂), water, H₂O and a salt are produced:

2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → 2H₂O + Salt

The ions that are not present in the reaction are Cl⁻ and Ca²⁺, the salt is CaCl₂ and the balanced reaction is:

2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → 2H₂O + CaCl₂
