Hydrogen peroxide decomposes spontaneously to yield water and oxygen gas according to the following reaction equation. 2H202(aq)

→2H20(/) + 02(g) The activation energy for this reaction is 75 kJ/mol. In the presence of a metal catalyst the activation energy is lowered to 49 kJ/mol. At what temperature would the non-catalyzed reaction need to be run to have a rate equal to that of the metal-catalyzed reaction at 25°C?

Answer : The temperature for non-catalyzed reaction needed will be 456 K

Explanation :

Activation energy : The energy required to initiate the reaction is known as activation energy.

According to the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

Since, the rate for both the reaction are equal.

K_1=K_2

A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_1}{RT_1}}=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_2}{RT_2}}

\frac{Ea_1}{T_1}=\frac{Ea_2}{T_2} ..........(1)

where,

Ea_1 = activation energy for non-catalyzed reaction = 75 kJ/mol

Ea_2 = activation energy for catalyzed reaction = 49 kJ/mol

T_1 =  temperature for non-catalyzed reaction = ?

T_2 = temperature for catalyzed reaction = 25^oC=273+25=298K

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

\frac{Ea_1}{T_1}=\frac{Ea_2}{T_2}

\frac{75kJ/mol}{T_1}=\frac{49kJ/mol}{298K}

T_1=456K

Therefore, the temperature for non-catalyzed reaction needed will be 456 K

The reaction 2a → a2​​​​​ was experimentally determined to be second order with a rate constant, k, equal to 0.0265 m–1min–1. if
katovenus [111]

The integrated rate law for a second-order reaction is given by:

\frac{1}{[A]t} =   \frac{1}{[A]0} + kt

where, [A]t= the concentration of A at time t,

[A]0= the concentration of A at time t=0

Calculate the heat required to melt 7.35 g of benzene at its normal melting point. Heat of fusion (benzene) = 9.92 kJ/mol Heat =
grigory [225]

Answer:

The heat required to melt 7.35 g of benzene at its normal melting point is 934.8 Joules.

The heat required to vaporize 7.35 g of benzene at its normal melting point is 2,893 Joules.

Explanation:

Mass of benzene = 7.35 g

Moles of benzene = \frac{7.35 g}{78 g/mol}=0.09423 mol

Heat fusion of benzene,\Delta H_{fus} = 9.92 kJ/mol

1) Heat required to melt 7.35 g of benzene at its normal melting point = Q

Q=\Delta H_{fus}\times 0.09423 mol

=9.92 kJ/mol\times 0.09423 mol=0.9348 kJ=934.8 J

(1 kJ = 1000 J)

2) Heat vaporization of benzene,\Delta H_{vap} = 30.7 kJ/mol

Heat required to vaporize 7.35 g of benzene at its normal melting point = Q

Q=\Delta H_{Vap}\times 0.09423 mol

=30.7 kJ/mol\times 0.09423 mol=2.893 kJ=2,993 J

(1 kJ = 1000 J)
