It is found that a gas undergoes a first-order decomposition reaction. If the rate constant for this reaction is 8.1 x 10-2 /min

, how long will it take for the concentration of the gas to change from an initial concentration of .1M to 1.0 x 10-2 M?

Answer:

28.43 min

Explanation:

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 8.1\times 10^{-2} min⁻¹

Initial concentration [A_0] = 0.1 M

Final concentration [A_t] = 1.0\times 10^{-2} M

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

1.0\times 10^{-2}=0.1e^{-8.1\times 10^{-2}\times t}

0.1e^{-8.1\times \:10^{-2}t}=10^{-2}

e^{-8.1\times \:10^{-2}t}=\frac{1}{10}

\ln \left(e^{-8.1\times \:10^{-2}t}\right)=\ln \left(\frac{1}{10}\right)

t=28.43\ min

If 65.5 moles of an ideal gas is at 9.15 atm at 50.30 °C, what is the volume of the gas?
qwelly [4]
To calculate for the volume, we need a relation to relate the number of moles (n), pressure (P), and temperature (T) with volume (V). For simplification, we assume the gas is an ideal gas. So, we use PV=nRT.

PV = nRT  where R is the universal gas constant
V = nRT / P
V = 65.5 ( 0.08205 ) (273.15 + 50.30) / 9.15 
V = 189.98 L

Use Boyle's Law to explain what would happen to the volume of a helium- filled balloon if it was carried underwater by a diver t
oksano4ka [1.4K]

The deeper the diver takes the helium balloon, the more it reduces in size. This is due to the pressure of the water column above pressing on the balloon. According to Boyle’s law (P= k*1/V.), as the volume of the balloon decreases, the pressure of the helium inside increases.
