Answer:
a. The second run will be faster.
d. The second run has twice the surface area.
Explanation:
The rate of a reaction is proportional to the surface area of a catalyst. Given the volume (V) of a sphere, we can find its surface area (A) using the following expression.
The area of the 10.0 cm³-sphere is:
The area of each 1.25 cm³-sphere is:
The total area of the 8 1.25cm³-spheres is 8 × 5.61 cm² = 44.9 cm²
The ratio of 8 1.25cm³-sphere to 10.0 cm³-sphere is 44.9 cm²/22.4 cm² = 2.00
Since the surface area is doubled, the second run will be faster.
Answer: 17) d.
18. c. The empirical formula of a compound can be twice the molecular formula.
Explanation:
Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.
Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.
To calculate the molecular formula, we need to find the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.
The equation used to calculate the valency is:
The empirical mass can be calculated from empirical formula and molar mass must be known.
17. Thus the empirical formula of should be
18. The molecular formula will either be same as empirical formula or is a whole number multiple of empirical formula. Thus the empirical formula of a compound can never be twice the molecular formula.
