Both slicing a tomato and a chemical change such as burning toast cannot be reversed. However, why is slicing a tomato still con

Physical changes do not change the chemical make up of a substance. Chemical changes do.

Slicing a tomato only changes its proportion and size (which are physical properties), instead of anything inside the tomato. while burning toast changes something inside the toast, making it a chemical change, instead of a physical change.

How do atoms form new substances?
geniusboy [140]
Atoms combine as the electrons from each atom are attracted to the nuclei of the atoms. This results in bonds ranging from 100% covalent to bonds with high ionic character. The combination of atoms to form compounds occurs when the compounds being formed are at lower energy than the original atoms

Consider the reaction
SOVA2 [1]

Answer :

(a) The average rate will be:

\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=9.36\times 10^{-5}M/s

(b) The average rate will be:

\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=1.87\times 10^{-4}M/s

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}

\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}

Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

The given rate of reaction is,

5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)\rightarrow 3Br_2(aq)+3H_2O(l)

The expression for rate of reaction :

\text{Rate of disappearance of }Br^-=-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}

\text{Rate of disappearance of }BrO_3^-=-\frac{d[BrO_3^-]}{dt}

\text{Rate of disappearance of }H^+=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of }Br_2=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}

Thus, the rate of reaction will be:

\text{Rate of reaction}=-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=-\frac{d[BrO_3^-]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}

<u>Part (a) :</u>

<u>Given:</u>

\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s

As,  

-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}

and,

\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}

\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\times 1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s

\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=9.36\times 10^{-5}M/s

<u>Part (b) :</u>

<u>Given:</u>

\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s

As,  

-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}

and,

-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}

\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=\frac{6}{5}\times 1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s

\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=1.87\times 10^{-4}M/s

Escribe aquí algo que consideres que requiere un balance para que se lleve a cabo correctamente:
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Direct weighing means that an object is placed directly on a balance and the mass read. Weighing directly requires that the balance be carefully zeroed (reads zero with nothing on the balance pan) in order to obtain accurate results.
