The decomposition of N2O to N2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 730°C, the rate constant of the reaction is 1.94 × 10-4 min-

1. If the initial pressure of N2O is 5.10 atm at 730°C, calculate the total gas pressure after one half-life. Assume that the volume remains constant.

Answer:

The total pressure after one half is 6.375 atm.

Explanation:

The initial pressure of product is increases while the pressure of reactant would decrease.

Balanced chemical equation:

2N₂O  → 2N₂ + O₂

The pressure of N₂O is 5.10 atm. The change in pressure would be,

N₂O = -2x

N₂ = +2x

O₂ = +x

The total pressure will be

P(total) = P(N₂O) + P(N₂)  + P(O₂)

P(total) = ( 5.10 - 2x) + (2x)  + (x)

P(total) = 5.10 + x

After one half life:

P(N₂O)  = 1/2(5.10) = 5.10 - 2x

x = 5.10 - 1/2(5.10) /2

x = 5.10 - 0.5 (5.10) /2

x = 5.10 - 2.55 / 2

x = 2.55 /2 = 1.275 atm

Thus the total pressure will be,

P(total) = 5.10 + x

P(total) = 5.10 + 1.275

P(total) = 6.375 atm

The molecules of a substance must have what characteristics in order to be flexible
Goryan [66]
Answer:
            <span>The molecules of a substance which must have the <u>a</u></span><u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.

Explanation:
                   Those substances are said to be flexible which can be bent without breaking. There are many substances which are hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.
