3 0

Answer:

Only a volcano could have produced so much ash, but there are NO volcanoes in Nebraska, where the animals were found. One Geologist in Idaho knew of a volcanic eruption dating from the same time.Bill Bonnichsen tied the 2 events together using dating techniques and comparing the ash composition from a supervolcano called Bruneau Jarbridge.

In acidic aqueous solution, the purple complex ion Co(NH3)5Br2+ undergoes a slow reaction in which the bromide ion is replaced b
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

A) 0.065 M is its molarity after a reaction time of 19.0 hour.

B) In 52 hours [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+} will react 69% of its initial concentration.

Explanation:

Co(NH_3)_5(H_2O)_3+[Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+}(Purple)(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow [Co(NH_3)_5(H_2O)]^{3+}(Pinkish-orange)(aq)+Br^-(aq)

The reaction is first order in [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+}:

Initial concentration of [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+}= [A_o]=0.100 M

a) Final concentration of [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+} after 19.0 hours= [A]

t = 19.0 hour = 19.0 × 3600 seconds ( 1 hour = 3600 seconds)

Rate constant of the reaction = k = 6.3\times 10^{-6} s^{-1}

The integrated law of first order kinetic is given as:

[A]=[A_o]\times e^{-kt}

[A]=0.100 M\times e^{-6.3\times 10^{-6} s^{-1}\times 19.0\times 3600 s}

[A]=0.065 M

0.065 M is its molarity after a reaction time of 19.0 h.

b)

Initial concentration of [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+}= [A_o]=x

Final concentration of [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+} after t = [A]=(100\%-69\%) x=31\%x=0.31x

Rate constant of the reaction = k = 6.3\times 10^{-6} s^{-1}

The integrated law of first order kinetic is given as:

[A]=[A_o]\times e^{-kt}

0.31x=x\times e^{-6.3\times 10^{-6} s^{-1}\t}

t = 185,902.06 s = \frac{185,902.06 }{3600} hour = 51.64 hours ≈ 52 hours

In 52 hours [Co(NH_3)5Br]^{2+} will react 69% of its initial concentration.

john roller skates with a constant speed of 8 miles per hour. how long will he take to travel a distance of 28 miles? please use
joja [24]

Answer:

3.5hrs

Explanation:

Using the formula Speed = Distance/Time

Given

Speed = 8mi/hr

Distance = 28miles

Get the time

Time = Distance/Speed

Time = 28/8

Tme = 3.5hrs

Hence it will take 3.5hrs to travel
