Reaction rate is calculated using the formula rate = Δ[C]/Δt, where Δ[C] is the change in product concentration during time period Δt.
The rate of reaction can be observed by watching the disappearance of a reactant or the appearance of a product over time.
If a reaction produces a gas such as oxygen or carbon dioxide, there are two ways to measure the reaction rate: using a gas syringe to measure the gas produced, or calculating the reduction in the mass of the reaction solution.
If the reaction produces a precipitate, the amount formed can be used to determine reaction rate by measuring how long it takes for the forming precipitate to obscure the visibility of a cross through a conical flask.

How many photons are produced in a laser pulse of 0.862 J at 691 nm?
Inga [223]
To calculate how many photons are in a certain amount of energy (joules) we need to know how much energy is in one photon.
Start by using two equations:
Energy of a photon = Frequency * Planck's constant (6.626 * 10^(-34) J-s)
Speed of light (constant 3 * 10^8 m/s) = Frequency * Wavelength
Which means:
frequency = Speed of Light / Wavelength
So energy of a photon = (Speed of light * Planck's constant)/(Wavelength)
You may have seen this equation as E = hc/<span>λ</span>
We have a wavelength of 691 nm or 691 * 10^-9 meters
So we can plug in all of our knowns:
E = (6.626 * 10^(-34) J-s) * (3.00 * 10^8 m/s) / (691 * 10^-9 m) = 
2.88 * 10^(-19) joules per photon
Now we have joules per photon, and the total number of joules (0.862 joules)
,so divide joules by joules per photon, and we have the number of photons:
0.862 J/ (2.88 * 10^(-19) J/photon) = 3.00 * 10^18 photons.

<u>Answer:</u>

The percent composition of this compound is 94%

<u>Explanation:</u>

The reaction can be formed as

2 \mathrm{Fe}+3 \mathrm{Cl}_{2} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{FeCl}_{3}

\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}{\text { 3* Molar Mass of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}=\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Fe}}{2 * \text { Molar Mass of Fe }}

\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}{3 *(2 * 35.5)}=\frac{3.56}{2 * 55.8}

\text { Weight of } C l_{2}=\frac{3.56 * 3 * 71}{2 * 55.8}=6.79 \mathrm{g}

\mathrm{n}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right)=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right) / \mathrm{M}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right)=6.79 / 71=0.1 \mathrm{m}

\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{Fe})=\mathrm{m}(\mathrm{Fe}) / \mathrm{M}(\mathrm{Fe})=3.56 / 55.8=0.06 \mathrm{m}

Based on no. of iron reacted,  

\mathrm{n}(\text { moles of } \mathrm{Fe})=\mathrm{n}\left(\text { moles of } \mathrm{FeCl}_{3}\right)

n = m/M

\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{FeCl}_{3}\right)=\mathrm{n}^{*} \mathrm{M}=0.06^{*} 162.5=9.75 \mathrm{g}

% composition ofFeCl_3  

=  (9.75 / 10.39)^{*} 100

= 94%
