The first-order rate constant for the reaction of methyl chloride (CH3Cl) with water to produce methanol (CH3OH) and hydrochlori

c acid (HCl) is 3.32 × 10−10 s−1 at 25°C. Calculate the rate constant at 48.5°C if the activation energy is 116 kJ/mol.

Answer:

K(48.5°C) = 1.017 E-8 s-1

Explanation:

  • CH3Cl + H2O → CH3OH + HCl

at T1 = 25°C (298 K) ⇒ K1 = 3.32 E-10 s-1

at T2 = 48.5°C (321.5 K) ⇒ K2 = ?

Arrhenius eq:

  • K(T) = A e∧(-Ea/RT)
  • Ln K = Ln(A) - [(Ea/R)(1/T)]

∴ A: frecuency factor

∴ R = 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol

⇒ Ln K1 = Ln(A) - [Ea/R)*(1/T1)]..........(1)

⇒ Ln K2 = Ln(A) - [(Ea/R)*(1/T2)].............(2)

(1)/(2):

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = (Ea/R)* (1/T2-1/T1)

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = (116 KJ/mol/8.3134 E-3 KJ/K.mol)*(1/321.5 K - 1/298 K)

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = (13952.37 K)*(- 2.453 E-4 K-1)

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = - 3.422

⇒ K1/K2 = e∧(-3.422)

⇒ (3.32 E-10 s-1)/K2 = 0.0326

⇒ K2 = (3.32 E-10 s-1)/0.0326

⇒ K2 = 1.017 E-8 s-1

The pressure on 150 mL of a gas is increased from 500 mm Hg to 700 mm Hg at constant temperature. What is the new volume of the
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Option A. 107 mL

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 150 mL

Initial pressure (P₁) = 500 mmHg

Final pressure (P₂) = 700 mmHg

Temperature = constant

Final volume (V₂) =?

The final volume of the gas can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

500 × 150 = 700 × V₂

75000 = 700 × V₂

Divide both side by 700

V₂ = 75000 / 700

V₂ = 107 mL

Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 107 mL.

What are the purposes of theories in science?
Leto [7]

Answer:

Scientific theories are testable and make falsifiable predictions. They describe the causes of a particular natural phenomenon and are used to explain and predict aspects of the physical universe or specific areas of inquiry (for example, electricity, chemistry, and astronomy).

A good theory in the theoretical sense is (1) consistent with empirical observations; is (2) precise, (3) parsimonious, (4) explanatorily broad, and (5) falsifiable; and (6) promotes scientific progress (among others; Table 1.1).
