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

Answer:

2HClO4(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) → Ca(ClO4)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Perchloric acid + Calcium hydroxide → Calcium perchlorate + Water.

Explanation:

This is a neutralization reaction where the acid, Perchloric acid reacts completely with an appropriate amount of base, aqueous Calcium hydroxide to produce salt, aqueous Calcium perchlorate and water, liquid H2O only.

During this reaction, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HClO4 is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the Ca(OH)2 to form the water molecule, H2O.

Thus, it is called a neutralization reaction.

Assume that a point mutation changes the codon AUU to AUC. Why is this a neutral mutation
lukranit [14]
I used the genetic code table. mRNA codon ===> amino acid

1st base       2nd base           3rd base
A                       U                             U               ===> Isoleucine
A                       U                             C               ===> Isoleucine

The point mutation of codon AUU to AUC is a neutral mutation because it neither benefits nor deter the ability of the organism to survive and reproduce.

As you can see, Both codons result to the Isoleucine amino acid.

Another codon that will still result to the Isoleucin amino acid is AUA.

The density of no2 in a 4.50 l tank at 760.0 torr and 25.0 °c is ________ g/l.
kap26 [50]
From  ideal  gas  equation   that   is   PV=nRT
n(number of  moles)=PV/RT
P=760 torr
V=4.50L
R(gas  constant =62.363667torr/l/mol
T=273 +273=298k
n  is   therefore   (760torr x4.50L) /62.36367 torr/L/mol  x298k  =0.184moles
the  molar  mass  of  NO2 is  46  therefore  density=  0.184  x  46=8.464g/l

A wooden block has a volume of 25.3 cm3. Its mass is 17.0g. What is the density of this block?
kolbaska11 [484]
Density = (mass) / (volume)

Density = (17.0 g) / (25.3 cm³) = 0.672 gm per cm³. (rounded)
