The decomposition of SO2Cl2 is first order in SO2Cl2 and has a rate constant of 1.42×10−4s−1 at a certain temperature. What is t

he half-life for this reaction? How long will it take for the concentration of SO2Cl2 to decrease to 25% of its initial concentration? If the initial concentration of SO2Cl2 is 1.00 M, how long will it take for the concentration to decrease to 0.78 M? If the initial concentration of SO2Cl2 is 0.150 M, what is the concentration of SO2Cl2 after 2.00×102s? After 5.00×102s?

Answer:

a) Half life of the decomposition = 4951.1 s ≈ 4950 s

b) Time it will take for the concentration of SO₂Cl₂ to decrease to 25% of its initial concentration = 9900 s

c) If the initial concentration of SO₂Cl₂ is 1.00 M, time it will take for the concentration to decrease to 0.78 M is 1775s

d) If the initial concentration of SO₂Cl₂ is 0.150 M, the concentration of SO₂Cl₂ after 2.00×10² s is 0.146 M

e) If the initial concentration of SO₂Cl₂ is 0.150 M, the concentration of SO₂Cl₂ after 2.00×10² s is 0.1398 M

Explanation:

Let C₀ represent the initial concentration of SO₂Cl₂

And C be the concentration of SO₂Cl₂ at anytime.

a) Rate of a first order reaction is represented by

dC/dt = - KC

dC/C = - kdt

Integrating the left hand side from C₀ to C₀/2 and the right hand side from 0 to t(1/2) (where t(1/2) is the radioactive isotope's half life)

In [(C₀/2)/C₀] = - k t(1/2)

In (1/2) = - k t(1/2)

- In 2 = - k t(1/2)

t₍₁,₂₎ = (In 2)/k

t₍₁,₂₎ = (In 2)/(1.4 × 10⁻⁴)

t₍₁,₂₎ = 4951.1 s

b) dC/C = - kdt

Integrating the left hand side from C₀ to C and the right hand side from 0 to t

In (C/C₀) = - kt

C/C₀ = e⁻ᵏᵗ

C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

C = 25% of C₀ = 0.25C₀

0.25C₀ = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.25

- kt = In 0.25

- kt = - 1.386

t = 1.386/(1.4 × 10⁻⁴) = 9900 s

c) C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

C = 0.78 M; C₀ = 1.00 M

0.78 = 1 e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.78

- kt = In 0.78

- kt = - 0.2485

t = 0.2485/(1.4 × 10⁻⁴) = 1775 s

d) C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

C₀ = 0.150 M, t = 2 × 10² s = 200 s

C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = e^(-1.4 × 10⁻⁴ × 200) = 0.972

C = 0.15 × 0.972 = 0.146 M

e) C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

C₀ = 0.150 M, t = 5 × 10² s = 500 s

C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = e^(-1.4 × 10⁻⁴ × 500) = 0.9324

C = 0.15 × 0.9324 = 0.1398 M

Why do we need to calibrate equipment​
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

to be precise in the calculations

Explanation: for example your cell phone has a gps inside it, the gps is responsible for providing direction data like a compass, if the equipment is not calibrated, the gps will not find the correct direction.

Luden [163]

Answer:

Consider each of the following molecules in turn: (a) dimethyl ether, (CH3)2O; (b) trimethylamine, (CH3)3N; (c) trimethylboron, (CH3)3B; and (d) carbon dioxide (CO2). Describe the hybridization state of the central atom (i.e., O, N, B, or C) of each molecule, tell what bond angles you would expect at the central atom, and state whether the molecule would have a dipole moment.

What is the percentage of nitrogen, by mass, in calcium nitrate?.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

<em>Nitrogen = 17.07%</em>

Explanation:

We are asked to calculate the percentage by mass of nitrogen in Ca(NO3)2.

The molar mass of calcium nitrate is 164,088 g/mol.

In this 164.088 g/mol there are 2 nitrogen atoms.

Molar mass of nitrogen = 14,0067 g/mol

% Nitrogen = molar mass of N/total molar mass of the compound

% Nitrogen =[(2 x 14.0067)/164.088]*100

% Nitrogen = 17.07%
