Suppose that a catalyst lowers the activation barrier of a reaction from 125kJ/mol to 55kJ/mol125⁢kJ/mol to 55kJ/mol. By what fa

ctor would you expect the reaction rate to increase at 25 °C? (Assume that the frequency factors for the catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions are identical.

Answer:

The factor of increasing reaction rate is 1,85x10¹².

Explanation:

Using arrhenius formula:

k = A e^\frac{-E_{a}}{RT}

Where k is rate constant; A is frecuency factor; Eₐ is activation energy; R is gas constant (0,008134 kJ/molK); T is temperature 25°C = 298,15K

Thus, replacing for an activation energy of 125 kJ/mol assuming A as 1:

k = 1,25x10⁻²²

When activation energy is 55kJ/mol:

k = 2,31x10⁻¹⁰

Thus, the factor of increasing reaction rate is:

2,31x10⁻¹⁰/1,25x10⁻²² =<em> 1,85x10¹²</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

What is the difference between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission?
True [87]

Answer:

[Fusion: Nuclei Fuse together and release energy]  [Fission: Pressure and energy is released. This release of energy, is what causes the unstable atom to split to an isotope. I hope this helps!]

[isotopes can split too. At least some.]

Explanation:

Imagine you are trying to push something heavy, fusion is how you can join together and help each other to push this heavy material.

Fun fact! Heavier materials have more inertia against other forces acting on them.

You push harder, harder and harder! Until its pushed.

This will release a lot of energy which escalates to an extended length.

It might not be the finest example, it helped me to understand the basics.

Fission. Imagine having so much energy, in this case, try thinking of so many people in a tight space. What do you do? You will eventually start to escape and leave the room. This is the act of splitting the atom.

This won't be the same than how it was before.

Again, Energy is released (energy!!).

For anyone struggling with this, although it might not be the best idea, I would recommend researching the more advaced options for this topic.

This will give you a wide range of information which can develop your current knowledge about, "Nuclear Fission and Fusion."

It will be difficult, it definitely was for me when I was a child (starting to study science).    

Just keep trying, you'll get it.

What force types change the direction of motion
lora16 [44]

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity. Let’s say an object is moving along a table on earth, suddenly the finite table ends, resulting in the object being present in the air, which means there is no normal contact force N to combat the force by gravity mg, which is why there is an acceleration downwards. This proves as a projectile motion since the direction of motion start changing from horizontal to vertical. Another example is one throwing an object up. It moves up and slows down, reaching its maximum point, leading to it starting to move downwards. This too is a change in motion.

Motivation that is physical and can be touched like a trophy or a medal is:
Talja [164]

Answer:

Tangible

Explanation:

Tangible alone means it is "perceptible by touch," meaning you physically observe the object with your sense of touch.

Having tangible motivation is like working for money or a trophy.

Unit 1- Unit Assessment (Matter &amp; Density)
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 11 g/mL</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 3025 g

volume = 275 mL

We have

density =  \frac{3025}{275}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>11 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
