Answer :

The rate law becomes:

\text{Rate}=k[NH_4^+][NO_2^-]

The value of the rate constant 'k' for this reaction is 3.0\times 10^{-2}M^{-1}s^{-1}

The concentration of [NH_4^+] at 274 seconds after the start of the reaction is 0.0604 M

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

NH_4^+(aq)+NO_2^-(aq)\rightarrow N_2(g)+H_2O(l)

Rate law expression for the reaction:

\text{Rate}=k[NH_4^+]^a[NO_2^-]^b

where,

a = order with respect to NH_4^+

b = order with respect to NO_2^-

Expression for rate law for first observation:

7.2\times 10^{-4}=k(0.24)^a(0.10)^b ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

3.6\times 10^{-4}=k(0.12)^a(0.10)^b ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

5.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.12)^a(0.15)^b ....(3)

Expression for rate law for fourth observation:

4.3\times 10^{-4}=k(0.12)^a(0.12)^b ....(4)

Dividing 2 from 1, we get:

\frac{7.2\times 10^{-4}}{3.6\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{k(0.24)^a(0.10)^b}{k(0.12)^a(0.10)^b}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1

Dividing 2 from 3, we get:

\frac{5.4\times 10^{-4}}{3.6\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{k(0.12)^a(0.15)^b}{k(0.12)^a(0.10)^b}\\\\1.5=1.5^b\\b=1

Thus, the rate law becomes:

\text{Rate}=k[NH_4^+]^1[NO_2^-]^1

\text{Rate}=k[NH_4^+][NO_2^-]

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

7.2\times 10^{-4}=k(0.24)(0.10)

k=3.0\times 10^{-2}M^{-1}s^{-1}

Hence, the value of the rate constant 'k' for this reaction is 3.0\times 10^{-2}M^{-1}s^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the [NH_4^+] at 274 seconds after the start of the reaction.

For experiment 4 , the initial concentration of [NH_4^+] and [NO_2^-] are same  and the reaction is 1st order for both.

So, it can be considered as a 2nd order reaction.

The expression for second order reaction is:

kt=\frac{1}{[A_t]}-\frac{1}{[A_o]}

where,

k = rate constant = 3.0\times 10^{-2}M^{-1}s^{-1}

t = time = 274 s

[A_t] = final concentration = ?

[A_o] = initial concentration = 0.12 M

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

3.0\times 10^{-2}\times 274=\frac{1}{A_t}-\frac{1}{0.12}

[A_t]=0.0604M

Therefore, the concentration of [NH_4^+] at 274 seconds after the start of the reaction is 0.0604 M

How many 20.0-g ice cubes are required to absorb 47.0 kJ from a glass of water upon melting?
Sati [7]

Hello!


The number of 20-g ice cubes required to absorb 47 kJ from a glass of water upon melting is 7 icecubes


Why?


We are going to clear from the equation of the released heat, the mass of ice (m). The specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 336 kJ/kg:


Q=m*L\\ \\ m=\frac{Q}{L}=\frac{47 kJ}{336 kJ/kg}=0,1399 kg=139,88 g\\   \\ 139,88g*\frac{1 icecube}{20g}=6,99=7icecubes


So, 7 ice cubes are required to absorb that amount of heat from the glass of water.


Have a nice day!

The cube has a mass of 72.9 g.<br><br> What is its density in g/cm3? <br><br> What substance is it?
sashaice [31]
If the cube is 3 cm on each side, then it has a volume of 27 cm^3 (3 x 3 x 3). Density is mass divided by volume, so its density is 72.9/27 = 2.7 g/cm^3. 

<span>Going by the density, the cube is made of Aluminium - density is a fairly unique quantity</span>
