seraphim [82]3 years ago
3 0

Activation energy is the energy required by reactants to undergo chemical reaction and given products

Every reactant has some internal energy (sum of all kind of energy like kinetic energy, potential energy, mechanical energy, chemical energy etc). It needs some extra energy to undergo chemical reaction which is activation energy

All kinds of reaction whether exothermic or endothermic needs activation energy

Threshold energy = internal energy + activation energy

You have 1.0 mole of each compound below. which has the greatest mass?
kramer
(a) Iron (iii) sulphate:
From the periodic table:
mass of iron = 55.845 grams
mass of sulphur = 32.065 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Iron (iii) sulphate has the formula: Fe2(SO4)3
molar mass = 2(55.845) + 3(32.065) + 3(4)(16) = 399.885 grams

(b) Sodium hydroxide:
From the periodic table:
mass of sodium = 22.989 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
Sodium hydroxide has the formula: NaOH
molar mass = 22.989 + 16 + 1 = 39.989 grams

(c) Barium carbonate
From the periodic table:
mass of barium = 137.327 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Barium carbonate has the formula: BaCO3
molar mass = 137.327 + 12 + 3(16) = 197.327 grams

(d) ammonium nitrate:
From the periodic table:
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Ammonium nitrate has the formula: NH4NO3
molar mass = 14 + 4(1) + 14 + 3(16) = 80 grams

(e) Lead (iv) oxide
From the periodic table:
mass of lead = 207.2 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Lead (iv) oxide has the formula: PbO2
molar mass = 207.2 + 2(16) = 239.2 grams

From the above calculations, we can see that:
Iron (iii) sulphate has the greatest mass.
