Answer:

To allow all the elements or compounds to separate complete.

Explanation:

In chromatography, the compounds need some space and time to separate, one from each other, if you  just use the half of the paper strip maybe you will not notice the different spots of compounds. Remember all the substances have different affinity for the solvents, that means, some react very quickly but others need more time as the colors that conform the black color in an ink.

Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) is used to neutralize the sulfuric acid spill. How many kilograms of sodium carbonate must be added to
valina [46]

5.451 X 10³ kg of sodium carbonate must be added to neutralize 5.04×103 kg of sulfuric acid solution.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Sodium carbonate is used to neutralized sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄. Sodium carbonate is the salt of a strong base (NaOH) and weak acid (H₂CO₃). The balanced chemical reaction for neutralization is as follows:

                        Na₂CO₃ + H₂SO₄ ----> Na₂SO₄ + H₂CO₃

  • From a balanced chemical equation, it is clear that one mole of Na₂CO₃ is required to neutralize one mole of  H₂SO₄.
  • Molar mass of Na₂CO₃= 106 g/mol = 0.106 kg/mol and                                Molar mass of H₂SO₄= 98 g/mol = 0.098 kg/mol.
  • To neutralize 0.098 kg of H₂SO₄ amount of Na₂CO₃ required is 0.106 kg, so, To neutralize 5.04×10³ kg of H₂SO₄, Na₂CO₃ required is =  5.451 X 10³ kg.

The decomposition of carbon disulfide to carbon monosulfide and sulfur is first order with k=2.8 ×10^-7 at 1000°C .What is the h
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

2.5×10⁶ s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

The half-life of a first order reaction is given by:

Half-life (t½) = 0.693 / Rate constant (K)

t½ = 0.693 / K

With the above formula, we can obtain the half-life of the reaction as follow:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

t½ = 0.693 / K

t½ = 0.693 / 2.8×10¯⁷

t½ = 2.5×10⁶ s

Therefore, the half-life of the reaction is 2.5×10⁶ s
