A certain first-order reaction (A→products) has a rate constant of 8.10×10−3 s−1 at 45 ∘C. How many minutes does it take for the

concentration of the reactant, [A], to drop to 6.25% of the original concentration? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

The answer is 5.7 minutes

Explanation:

A first-order reaction follow the law of Ln [A] = -k.t + Ln [A]_{0}. Where <em>[A]</em> is the concentration of the reactant at any <em>t</em> time of the reaction, [A]_{0} is the concentration of the reactant at the beginning of the reaction and <em>k</em> is the rate constant.

Dropping the concentration of the reactant to 6.25% means the concentration of A at the end of the reaction has to be [A]=\frac{6.25}{100}.[A]_{0}. And the rate constant (<em>k</em>) is 8.10×10−3 s−1

Replacing the equation of the law:

Ln \frac{6.25}{100}.[A]_{0} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t + Ln[A]_{0}

Clearing the equation:

Ln [A]_{0}.\frac{6.25}{100} - Ln [A]_{0} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t

<em>Considering the property of logarithms: </em>Ln A - Ln B = Ln \frac{A}{B}

Using the property:

Ln \frac{[A]_{0}}{[A]_{0}}.\frac{6.25}{100} = -8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1}.t

Clearing <em>t </em>and solving:

t = \frac{Ln \frac{6.25}{100} }{-8.10x10^{-3}s^{-1} } = 342.3s

The answer is in the unit of seconds, but every minute contains 60 seconds, converting the units:

342.3x\frac{1min}{60s} = 5.7min

What are the hydronium and hydroxide ion concentrations in a solution whose ph is 6.52?
erica [24]

A solution with a pH of 6.52 has a hydronium ion concentration of 3.02x10-7 mol/L and a hydroxide ion concentration of 3.31x10-8 mol/L.

The hydronium ion concentration of a solution can be calculated from pH by using 10^{-pH}. For a pH of 6.52, hydronium ion concentration is 3.02x10-7 mol/L.

The concentration of hydroxide ions can be determined by identifying the value of pOH. The sum of pOH and pH is equal to 14, which is based on the negative logarithm of the ion-product constant of water. At a pH of 6.52, pOH is equal to 7.48.

The relationship between pOH and hydroxide ion concentration is the same as the relationship between pH and hydronium ion concentration. With this, the hydroxide ion concentration at pOH of 7.48 is 10^{-7.48} or 3.31x10-8 mol/L.

Silver sulfadiazine burn-treating cream creates a barrier against bacterial invasion and releases antimicrobial agents directly
trapecia [35]

Answer : The mass of silver sulfadiazine produced can be, 71.35 grams.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Ag_2O = 25.0 g

Mass of C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 = 50.0 g

Molar mass of Ag_2O = 231.7 g/mole

Molar mass of C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 = 250.3 g/mole

Molar mass of AgC_{10}H_{9}N_4SO_2 = 357.1 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Ag_2O and C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2.

\text{ Moles of }Ag_2O=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Ag_2O}{\text{ Molar mass of }Ag_2O}=\frac{25.0g}{231.7g/mole}=0.1079moles

\text{ Moles of }C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2}=\frac{50.0g}{250.3g/mole}=0.1998moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

Ag_2O(s)+2C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2(s)\rightarrow 2AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2(s)+H_2O(l)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 react with 1 mole of Ag_2O

So, 0.1998 moles of C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 react with \frac{0.1998}{2}=0.0999 moles of Ag_2O

From this we conclude that, Ag_2O is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 react with 2 mole of AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2

So, 0.1998 mole of C_{10}H_{10}N_4SO_2 react with 0.1998 mole of AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2

\text{ Mass of }AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2=\text{ Moles of }AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2

\text{ Mass of }AgC_{10}H_9N_4SO_2=(0.1998moles)\times (357.1g/mole)=71.35g

Therefore, the mass of silver sulfadiazine produced can be, 71.35 grams.
