So our professor didn't go over this but is freshly cut sodium, but rapidly tarnishes on contact with air a physical or chemical

property?​

Answer:

Hey!

After the slight confusion (haha)...

Your answer should be a CHEMICAL CHANGE / PROPERTY

Explanation:

Its CHEMICAL because the sodium has reacted with the air (oxygen in technical terms) which then forms SODIUM OXIDE...the tarnishing of the cut sodium surface it a thin layer of the SODIUM OXIDE...

HOPE THIS HELPED!

The rate law for a reaction is rate=k[A][B] Which one of the following statements is false? The rate law for a reaction is Which
Andrews [41]

Answer: The reaction is first order overall.

Explanation: Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

Rate=k[A]^x[B]^y

k= rate constant

For the given rate law:

Rate=k[A]^1[B]^1

x = 1= order with respect to A

y =1=  order with respect to B

n =( x+y)= (1+1) = 2 = Total order

a)  If [A] is doubled, the reaction rate will increase by a factor of 2: True

Rate'=k[2A]^1[B]^1

Rate'=k[2]^1[A]^1[B]^1

Rate'=[2]^1\times Rate

Rate'=[2]\times Rate

b) The reaction is first order overall: False

The overall order is 1+1= 2.

c)  k is the reaction rate constant: True

Rate=k[A]^x[B]^y

k= rate constant

d) The reaction is first order in [B]: True

For the given rate law:

Rate=k[A]^1[B]^1

x = 1= order with respect to A

e) The reaction is first order in [A]: True

For the given rate law:

Rate=k[A]^1[B]^1

y =1=  order with respect to B

Zinc chloride can be made from the reaction between zinc oxide and hydrochloric acid. Describe a laboratory method to produce pu
VikaD [51]

Answer:

answer: Pure dry crystals of zinc chloride can be produced by crystallisation, then filtration to remove excess solution, followed by drying on a watch glass or in a warm oven.

answer- Yes. The reaction of hydrochloric acid with zinc oxide to form zinc chloride and water is a neutralization reaction because acid (HCl) is a neutralizing base (ZnO).

Calculate the value of ΔG°, ΔH°, &amp; ΔS° for the oxidation of solid elemental sulfur to gaseous sulfur trioxide at at 25°C.​2S
Liula [17]

Answer:

ΔG° = -750324.96 J/mol = -750.324 Kj/mol

ΔH° = - 790.4 kJ/mol = -790400 j/mol

ΔS° =  = - 134.48 J K-1mol-1

Explanation:

(S, rhombic) + 3O2( g) → 2SO3 (g)

Temperature = 25°C + 273 = 298K (Converting to kelvin temperature.)

The formulae relating all four paramenters (ΔG°, T, ΔH°, & ΔS°) is given as;

ΔG° = ΔH° - TΔS°

All H and S values used are measurements at 25°C

Calculating ΔH

You started with 1 mole of Sulphur and 3 moles of oxygen.

Total starting enthalpy = 0+ 3(0) = 0 kJ/mol

You ended up with 2 moles of SO3.

Total enthalpy at the end = 2(-395.2) = - 790.4 kJ/mol

enthalpy change = what you end up with - what you started with.

ΔH = enthalpy change =  - 790.4 kJ/mol - 0 kJ/mol = - 790.4 kJ/mol = -790400 j/mol

Calculating ΔS

You started with 1 mole of Sulphur and 3 moles of oxygen.

Total starting entropy =31.88 + 3(205) = 646.88 J K-1mol-1

You ended up with 2 moles of SO3.

Total entropy  at the end = 2(256.2) = 512.4 J K-1mol-1

entropy change = what you end up with - what you started with.

ΔS = entropy change =  512.4 J K-1mol-1 - 646.88 J K-1mol-1

= - 134.48 J K-1mol-1

Inputing the values into the formular, we have;

ΔG° = ΔH° - TΔS°

ΔG° = - 790400 - 298 (- 134.48)

ΔG° =  - 790400 + 40075.04

ΔG° = -750324.96 J/mol = -750.324 Kj/mol

Select the single best answer. Explain the observed trend in the melting points for four isomers of molecular formula C7H16. mp
yaroslaw [1]

Explanation:

It is known that more linearly the atoms are arranged in a carbon chain more will be its melting point. This is because then more surface area has been occupied by the molecule and in order to break all the bonds, heat energy has to reach to the entire surface area.

As a result, melting point of the compound will be high. On the other hand, more is the branching present in a carbon chain less will be the surface area occupied by it. Hence, smaller will be its melting point.

Therefore, in the given structures of (C_{7}H_{16}) as the branching increases there occurs a decrease in melting point.
