In a certain industrial process involving a heterogeneous catalyst, the volume of the catalyst (in the shape of a sphere) is 10.

0 cm^3. If the sphere were broken down into eight spheres each having a volume of 1.25 cm^3, and the reaction is run a second time, which of the following accurately characterizes the second run?
Choose all that apply.
A. The second run will be faster.
B. The second run will be slower.
C. The second run will have the same rate as the first.
D. The second run has twice the surface area.
E. The second run has eight times the surface area.
F. The second run has 10 times the surface area.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

We know that the

reaction catalyzing power of a catalyst ∝ surface area exposed by it

Given

volume V1= 10 cm^3

⇒\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= 10

hence r= 1.545 cm

also, surface area S1= 4\pi r^2

now when the sphere is broken down into 8 smaller spheres

S2= 8×4πr'^2

now, equating V1 and V2 ( as the volume must remain same )

\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=8\times\frac{4}{3} \pi r'^3

and solving we get

r'= r/2

therefore, S2=8\times4\pi\frac{r}{2}^2

S2=2\times4\pi r^2

S2= 2S1

hence the correct answer is

. The second run has twice the surface area.

A 45 mL sample of nitrogen gas is cooled from 135ºC to 15C in a container that can contract or expand at constant pressure. Wha
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

V₂ =31.8 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial  volume of gas = 45 mL

Initial temperature = 135°C (135+273 =408 K)

Final temperature = 15°C (15+273 =288 K)

Final volume of gas = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 45 mL × 288 K / 408 k

V₂ = 12960 mL.K / 408 K

V₂ =31.8 mL

A mineral consisted of 29.4% calcium, 23.5% sulfur and 47.1% oxygen. What is the empirical formula?
inessss [21]
Step  one  calculate  the  moles  of  each  element
that  is  moles= %  composition/molar  mass
molar  mass  of    Ca  =  40g/mol,     S=  32  g/mol ,   O=  16 g/mol

moles  of      Ca = 29.4 /40g/mol=0.735 moles,      S= 23.5/32  =0.734 moles,  O= 47.1/16= 2.94   moles

calculate  the mole  ratio  by  dividing   each  mole with  smallest  mole   that   is  0.734
Ca=  0.735/0.734= 1,      S=  0.734/0.734 =1,   O  = 2.94/  0.734= 4
therefore  the  emipical  formula  =  CaSO4

Which statement best describes the behavior of most soilds?
lidiya [134]
B is correct. Molecules move faster when they are hotter because they have more energy. You can notice this change with your naked eye. Molecules in solids don't move. They have barely any energy. Hope this helps! ;)
