Answer:

α-iron (BCC) has faster diffusion rate because of lower values in activation energy and pre-exponential value.

Explanation:

Taking each parameters or data at a time, we can determine the values/a constant for each parameters in the diffusion coefficient equation.

For α-iron (BCC), the diffusion coefficient = pre-exponential value,Ao × e^( -Activation energy,AE)/gas constant,R × Temperature.

Converting the given Temperature, that is 900°C to Kelvin which is equals to 1173.15K.

For α-iron (BCC), the pre-exponential value, Ao = 1.1 × 10^-6, and the activation energy, AE = 87400.

Thus, we have that the diffusion coefficient = 1.1 × 10^-6 × e(-87400)/1173.15 × 8.31.

Diffusion coefficient for α-iron (BCC) = 1.41 × 10^-10 m^2/s.

Also, For the γ-iron (FCC), the pre-exponential value, Ao = 2.3 × 10^-5 and the activation energy, AE = 148,00.

From these values we can see that both the exponential value, Ao and the activation energy for γ-iron (FCC) are higher than that of α-iron (BCC).

Thus, the diffusion coefficient for the γ-iron (FCC) = 2.3 × 10^-5 × e ^-(14800)/8.31 × 1173.15.

Then, the diffusion coefficient for the γ-iron (FCC) = 5.87 × 10^-12 m2/s.

Therefore, there will be faster diffusion in α-iron (BCC) because of lower activation energy and vice versa.

A gas storage tank has a volume of 3.5 X 105 L when the temperature is 27oC, and the pressure is 101 kPa. What is the new volume
masha68 [24]

Answer: 3.26x10^5L

Explanation:

P1 = 101kPa

P2 = 95kPa

T1 = 27°C = 27 +273 =300k

T2 = —10°C = —10 +273 = 263k

V1 = 3.5 x 10^5 L

V2 =?

P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 /T2

(101 x 3.5 x 10^5)/300 = (95xV2)/263

300x95xV2 = 101x 3.5x10^5x263

V2 = (101x 3.5x10^5x263) /(300x95)

V2 = 3.26x10^5L

How many moles of ethyl alcohol, C2H6O, are in a 16.0 g sample
Anon25 [30]
Moles = mass/molar mass, so n(C2H6O)= 16.0 / (12+12+(1x6)+16)
=0.348 (to correct sig figs)

For a certain chemical reaction, the standard Gibbs free energy of reaction at 30.0 °C is 110. kJ. Calculate the equlilibriunm c
mestny [16]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation that relates standard Gibbs free energy, ΔG, with equilibrium constant, K, is:

ΔG = -RT ln K

<em>Where R is gas constant, 8.314J/molK, and T is absolute temperatue (30.0°C + 273.15 = 303.15K).</em>

<em />

Replacing (110kJ = 110000J):

110000J/mol = -8.314J/molK*303.15K ln K

-43.644 = lnK

1.11x10⁻¹⁹ = K

There are many ways to test and identify metal. The easiest way is observing its color. Also how reflective it is. Other ways would be boiling point, melting point, density, or conductivity of the metal.
