pH value 1 represents a solution with the lowest OH⁻ion concentration.

<u>Explanation:</u>

pH is given by the expression as the negative logarithm to the base 10 of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

If the pH is lower than 7, pH < 7 then it is acidic

If the pH = 7, then it is neutral

If the pH > 7, then it is basic

If pH is 1 then the solution is showing mostly acidic character,which is least basic in its character.

So if the pH is 1, which is most acidic and least basic solution that is lowest OH⁻ ion concentration.

A decomposition reaction has a half life of 578 years. (a) What is the rate constant for this reaction? (b) How many years does

maw [93]

Answer:

$0.001199 year^{-1}$ is the rate constant for this reaction.

It will take $1.73\times 10^3 years$ to concentration to reach 12.5% of its original value.

Explanation:

A decomposition reaction follows first order kinetics:

Half life of the reaction = $t_{1/2}=578 years$

Rate constant of the reaction = k

For first order reaction, half life and rate constant are linked with an expression :

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{578 years}=0.001199 year^{-1}$

$0.001199 year^{-1}$ is the rate constant for this reaction.

Initial concentration of reactant = $[A_o]$ = x

Final concentration of reactant after time t = $[A]$ = 12.5% of x = 0.125x

The integrated law of first order reaction :

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

$0.125x=x\times e^{-0.001199 year^{-1}\times t}$

t = 1,734.31 years = $1.73\times 10^3 years$

It will take $1.73\times 10^3 years$ to concentration to reach 12.5% of its original value.

The particle that adds mass but no charge to the atomic nucleus is the neutron.

The nucleus contains both protons and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons have about the same mass.

However, protons have a positive charge, while <em>neutrons have no charge</em>,

Answer:

The equation that gives the overall equilibrium in terms of the equilibrium constants K and Ky is K1 = K^6 * Ky

Explanation:

we have the following balanced reaction:

CaC2 + 2H2O = C2H2 + Ca(OH)2

the value of K for this reaction will be equal to:

K = ([C2H2] * [Ca(OH)2])/([CaC2] * [H2O]^2)

if we multiply the reaction by the value of 6, we have:

6CaC2 + 12H2O = 6C2H2 + 6Ca(OH)2

Again, the value of K for this reaction will be equal to:

K,´ = ([C2H2] ^6 * [Ca(OH)2]^6)/([CaC2]^6 * [H2O]^12) = K^6

For the second reaction:

6C2H2 + 3CO2 + 4H2O = 5CH2CHCO2H

The value of K for this reaction:

K2 = ([CH2CHCO2H]^5)/([C2H2]^6 * [CO2]^3 * [H2O]^4)

we also have:

K1 = ([CH2CHCO2H]^5)/([C2H2]^6 * [CO2]^3 * [H2O]^16)

Thus:

K1 = K^6 * Ky
