For a candle to burn, it requires a spark, which provides the activation energy for the oxidation reaction of the hydrocarbon making the candle.
It also requires oxygen to facilitate the oxidation of the hydrocarbon.
Therefore the two main requirements of combustion of a candle are oxygen and a spark (or an initial flame)
Answer:
Explanation:
Look up the density of the material the object is made of in kg/m³.
Measure the volume of the object in m³.
Multiply the density by the volume.
You will then have the mass of the object in kg.
Answer:
Rate = 0.001615 Ms-1
Explanation:
2 NO2 + F2 --> 2 NO2F
The reaction is first order with respect to NO2 and also first order with respect to F2.
The rate law is given as;
Rate = k [NO2] [ F2]
k = 1.58E-4 M-1s-1
[NO2] = 2.84 M
[F2] = 3.60 M
Rate = ?
Inserting the values into the equation, we have;
Rate = 1.58E-4 * 2.84 * 3.60
Rate = 0.001615 Ms-1
