Which is most likely why many scientist reject the cold fusion theory

Chemistry
1 answer:
spin [16.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

There is too much waste involved in the process. Cold fusion experiments have been conducted at room temperature only. The process does not produce enough energy to meet the needs of modern humans.

Answer:

3)The reaction is not at equilibrium and willproceed to the right.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the course of the reaction at  particular point in the time.

It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.

Q < Kc , reaction will proceed in forward direction.

Q > Kc , reaction will proceed in backward direction.

Q = Kc , reaction at equilibrium.

Given that:

Q = 3.56\times 10^{-4}

K = 6.02\times 10^{-2}

Since, Q < K , reaction is not at equilibrium and will proceed to right, in forward direction.

A second- order reaction of the type A + B --&gt;P was carried out in a solution that was initially 0.075 mol dm^-3 in A and 0.0
andriy [413]

Answer:

a) 16.2 dm^3/mol*h

b) 6.1 × 10^3 s, 2.5 × 10^3 s (it is different to the hint)

Explanation:

We can use the integrated rate equation in order to obtain k.

For the reaction A+ B --> P the reaction rate is written as

Rate = -\frac{dC_A}{dt} = -\frac{dC_B}{dt} = \frac{dC_P}{dt} = kC_AC_B

If C_{A0} and C_{B0} are the inital concentrations and x the concentration reacted at time t, so C_A=C_{A0} -x and C_B=C_{B0} -x and the rate at time t is written as:

-\frac{dx}{dt} =-k(C_{A0} -x)(C_{B0}-x)

Separating variables and integrating

\int\limits^x_0 {\frac{1}{(C_{A0}-x)(C_{B0}-x)} } \, dx = \int\limits^t_0 {k} \, dt

The integral in left side is solved by partial fractions, it can be used integral tables

\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}}{C_{A0}-x}-ln\frac{C_{B0}}{C_{B0}-x}) =kt

Using logarithm properties (ln x - ln y = ln(x/y))

\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}C_{B}}{C_{A}C_{B0}}) =kt

Using the given values k can be calculated. But the data seems inconsistent since if the concentration of A changes from 0.075 to 0.02 mol dm^-3 it implies that 0.055 mol dm^-3 of A have reacted after 1 h, so according to the reaction given the same quantity of B should react, and we only have a C_{B0} of 0.05 mol dm^-3.

Assuming that the concentration of B fall to 0.02 mol dm^-3 (and not the concentration the A). So we arrive to the answer given in the Hint.

So, the values given are t= 1, C_{A0}=0.075, C_{B0}=0.05, C_{B}=0.02, it implies that the quantity reacted, x, is 0.03 and C_{A}=0.075-x = 0.045. Then, the value of k would be

kt = \frac{1}{0.05-0.075}(ln\frac{0.075*0.02}{0.045*0.05})

k = 16.21 \frac{dm^3}{mol*1h}

b) the question b requires calculate the time when the concentration of the specie is half of the initial concentration.

For reactant A, It is solved with the same equation

\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}C_{B}}{C_{A}C_{B0}}) =kt

but suppossing that C_A= C_{A0}/2=0.0375 so  C_B=C_{B0}- C_{A0}/2=0.0125, k=16.2 and the same initial concentrations. Replacing in the equation

t=\frac{1}{16.2(0.05-0.075)}(ln\frac{0.075*0.0125}{0.0375*0.05})

t=1.71 h = 1.71*3600 s = 6.1*10^3 s  

For reactant B, C_B= C_{B0}/2=0.025 so  C_A=C_{A0}- C_{B0}/2=0.05, k=16.2 and the same initial concentrations. Replacing in the equation

t=\frac{1}{16.2(0.05-0.075)}(ln\frac{0.075*0.025}{0.05*0.05})

t=0.71 h = 0.7*3600 s = 2.5*10^3 s  

Note: The procedure presented is correct, despite of the answer be something different to the given in the hint, I obtain that result if the k is 19.2... (maybe an error in calculation of given numbers)
