Answer:

59.077 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

  • From Arrhenius law: <em>K = Ae(-Ea/RT)</em>

where, K is the rate constant of the reaction.

A is the Arrhenius factor.

Ea is the activation energy.

R is the general gas constant.

T is the temperature.

  • At different temperatures:

<em>ln(k₂/k₁) = Ea/R [(T₂-T₁)/(T₁T₂)]</em>

k₂ = 3k₁ , Ea = ??? J/mol, R = 8.314 J/mol.K, T₁ = 294.0 K, T₂ = 308.0 K.

ln(3k₁/k₁) = (Ea / 8.314 J/mol.K) [(308.0 K - 294.0 K) / (294.0 K x 308.0 K)]

∴ ln(3) = 1.859 x 10⁻⁵ Ea

∴ Ea = ln(3) / (1.859 x 10⁻⁵) = 59.077 kJ/mol.

A molecular biologist measures the mass of cofactor a in an average yeast cell. the mass is 41.5 pg . what is the total mass in
Hitman42 [59]
The unit pg stands for pictogram. It is one-trillionth of a gram. Because of the very small mass, it is expressed in the prefix form of the base units for convenience. Now, the mass of cofactor a is 41.5 pg per cell. Since there are a total of 105 cells, the total mass would be:

Total mass = 105 cells * 41.5 pg/cell = 4,357.5 pg

The tabulated data were collected for this reaction:
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

ai) Rate law,  Rate = k [CH_3 Cl] [Cl_2]^{0.5}

aii) Rate constant, k = 1.25

b) Overall order of reaction = 1.5

Explanation:

Equation of Reaction:

CH_{3} Cl (g) + 3 Cl_2 (g) \rightarrow CCl_4 (g) + 3 HCl (g)

If A + B \rightarrow C + D, the rate of backward reaction is given by:  

Rate = k [A]^{a} [B]^{b}\\k = \frac{Rate}{ [A]^{a} [B]^{b}}\\k = \frac{Rate}{ [CH_3 Cl]^{a} [Cl_2]^{b}}

k is constant for all the stages

Using the information provided in lines 1 and 2 of the table:

0.014 / [0.05]^a [0.05]^b = 00.029/ [0.100]^a [0.05]^b\\0.014 / [0.05]^a [0.05]^b = 00.029/ [2*0.05]^a [0.05]^b\\0.014 / = 0.029/ 2^a\\2^a = 2.07\\a = 1

Using the information provided in lines 3 and 4 of the table and insering the value of a:

0.041 / [0.100]^a [0.100]^b = 0.115 / [0.200]^a [0.200]^b\\0.041 / [0.100]^a [0.100]^b = 0.115 / [2 * 0.100]^a [2 * 0.100]^b\\

0.041 = 0.115 / [2 ]^a [2]^b\\ \[[2 ]^a [2]^b = 0.115/0.041\\ \[[2 ]^a [2]^b = 2.80\\\[[2 ]^1 [2]^b = 2.80\\\[[2]^b = 1.40\\b = \frac{ln 1.4}{ln 2} \\b = 0.5

The rate law is: Rate = k [CH_3 Cl] [Cl_2]^{0.5}

The rate constant k = \frac{Rate}{ [CH_3 Cl]^{a} [Cl_2]^{b}} then becomes:

k = 0.014 / ( [0.050] [0.050]^(0.5) )\\k = 1.25

b) Overall order of reaction =  a + b

Overall order of reaction = 1 + 0.5

Overall order of reaction = 1.5
