The reaction (CH3)3CBr + OH- (CH3)3COH + Br- in a certain solvent is first order with respect to (CH3)3CBr and zero order with r

espect to OH-. In several experiment, the rate constant k was determined at different temperatures. A plot of ln(k) versus 1/T was constructed resulting in a straight line with a slope value of –1.10 x 104 K and a y-intercept of 33.5.

Answer and Explanation:

The rate constant (K) is related to activation energy (Ea), frequency factor (A) and temperature (T) in Kelvin by the equation

R = molar gas constant

K = A(e^(-Ea/RT))

Taking natural log of both sides

In K = In A - (Ea/RT)

In K = (-Ea/R)(1/T) + In A

Comparing this to the equation of a straight line; y = mx + c

y = In K, slope, m = (-Ea/R), x = (1/T) and intercept, c = In A

a) From the question, m = (-Ea/R) = -1.10 × (10^4) K

(-Ea/R) = -1.10 × (10^4) = -11000

R = 8.314 J/K.mol

Ea = -11000 × 8.314 = 91454 J/mol = 91.454 KJ/mol

b) c = In A = 33.5

A = e^33.5 = (3.54 × (10^14))/s

c) K = A(e^(-Ea/RT))

A = (3.54 × (10^14))/s, Ea = 91454 J/mol, T = 25°C = 298.15 K, R = 8.314 J/K.mol

K = (3.54 × (10^14))(e^(-91454/(8.314×298.15))) = 0.0336/s

A 25.0 mL sample of 0.123 M HCl was titrated with 18.04 mL of NaOH . What is the concentration of the NaOH ?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

0.170 M

Explanation:

M1V1=M2V2

(25.0mL)(0.123M)=(18.04mL)(x)

x= 0.170 M

What is my control group in my experiment and why is it that?
alex41 [277]
Your control group would be the batteries since you CONTROL what brand you're using, for which one lasts the longest...aren't you suppose to figure that out when you do the experiment?

Which polyatomic ion is found in the compound represented by the formula NaHCO3?
stiv31 [10]

Answer: The correct option is 2.

Explanation: Polyatomic ions are defined as the ions in which two or more elements are covalently bonded to act as a single unit. They always carry some charge.

Examples of polyatomic ions are: OH^- known as hydroxide ion, SO_4^{2-} known as sulfate ion

We are given a compound NaHCO_3 having 2 ions which are Na^+ and HCO_3^-. these ions are named as sodium ions and hydrogen carbonate ions.

Therefore, the correct option is 2.
