To determine which order of the reaction it is, first we need to calculate the rate of change of moles.
the data is as follows 
time         0         40        80       120       160
moles    0.100   0.067  0.045    0.030    0.020


Q1)
for the first 40 s change of moles ;
      = -d[A] / t
      = - (0.067-0.100)/40s
      = 8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
for the next 40 s
      = -(0.045-0.067)/40
      = 5.5 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
the 40 s after that
      = -(0.030-0.045)/40 s 
     = 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
k - rate constant
and A is the only reactant that affects the rate of the reaction

rate = k [A]ᵇ
8.25 × 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.100 mol]ᵇ ----1
5.5 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.067 mol]ᵇ   -----2
divide the 2nd equation by the 1st equation
1.5 = [1.49]ᵇ
b is almost equal to 1
Therefore this is a first order reaction

Q2)
to find out the rate constant(k), we have to first state the equation for a first order reaction.
rate = k[A]ᵇ
As A is the only reactant thats considered for the rate equation. 
Since this is a first order reaction,
b = 1
therefore the reaction is 
rate = k[A]
substituting the values,
8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.100 mol]
k = 8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s /0.100mol
   = 8.25 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

How mamy moles of NaCl will be produced from 83.0g of Na, assuming Cl2 is available in excess
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

3.62moles

Explanation:

First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction

2Na + Cl2 —> 2NaCl

Molar Mass of Na = 23g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 x 23 = 46g

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mass of NaCl from the balanced equation = 2 x 58.5 = 117g

From the question,

46g of Na produced 117g of NaCl.

Therefore, 83g of Na will produce = (83 x 117)/46 = 211.11g of NaCl

Converting this mass (211.11g of NaCl) to mole, we obtain:

n = Mass /Molar Mass

n = 211.11/ 58.5

3.62moles
