Answer:

A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another.

Classically, chemical reactions encompass changes that only involve the positions of electrons in the forming and breaking of chemical bonds between atoms, with no change to the nuclei (no change to the elements present), and can often be described by a chemical equation.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

21.86582KJ

Explanation:

The graphical form of the Arrhenius equation is shown on the image attached. Remember that in the Arrhenius equation, we plot the rate constant against the inverse of temperature. The slope of this graph is the activation energy and its y intercept is the frequency factor.

Applying the equation if a straight line, y=mx +c, and comparing the given equation with the graphical form of the Arrhenius equation shown in the image attached, we obtain the activation energy of the reaction as shown.

In the reaction BaCO3 + 2HNO3 + Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O, what mass of Ba(NO3)2 can be formed by combining 55 g BaCO3 and 26 g HNO3

Nataliya [291]

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, the mass of barium nitrate produced is 54.9 g.

<h3>Stoichiometry</h3>

The term stoichiometry refers to mass - volume relationships. Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the amount, mass or volume of reactants and products from the balanced reaction equation.

The equation of the reaction is written as follows;

BaCO3 + 2HNO3 ------> Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O

Number of moles of BaCO3 = 55 g/197.34 g/mol = 0.28 moles

Number of moles of HNO3 = 26 g/63.01 g/mol = 0.41 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of BaCO3 reacts with 2 moles of HNO3

0.28 moles of BaCO3 reacts with 0.28 moles × 2 moles/1 mole = 0.56 moles

There is not enough HNO3 hence it is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 produced is obtained from;

2 moles of HNO3 yields 1 mole of Ba(NO3)2

0.41 moles of HNO3 yields 0.41 moles × 1 mole/2 moles

= 0.21 moles of Ba(NO3)2

Mass of Ba(NO3)2 = 0.21 moles × 261.337 g/mol = 54.9 g
