An expression that correctly describes the activation energy in a chemical reaction is reactants and products in between the energy barrier. This expression describes the statement above because reactants or products wouldn't produce any reaction unless it will collide with a barrier. It is like the activation of energy where it is in need of a substance or barrier in order to form a chemical reaction.

Suppose a student started with 142.0 mg of trans-cinnamic acid, 412 mg of pyridinium tribromide, and 2.30 mL of glacial acetic a

nirvana33 [79]

Answer: Theoretical Yield = 0.2952 g

Percentage Yield = 75.3%

Explanation:

Calculation of limiting reactant:

n-trans-cinnamic acid moles = (142mg/1000) / 148.16 = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol

pyridium tribromide moles = (412mg/1000) / 319.82= 1.288*10⁻³ mol

n-trans-cinnamic acid is the limiting reactant

The molar ratio according to the equation mentioned is equals to 1:1

The brominated product moles is also = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol

Theoretical yield = (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (Mr of brominated product)

= (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (307.97) = 0.2952 g

Percentage Yield is : Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield = 0.2223/0.2952

= 75.3%

The reactant concentration in a second-order reaction was 0.560 m after 115 s and 3.30×10−2 m after 735 s . what is the rate con

Aloiza [94]

Use the formula for second order reaction:

$\frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{C_0} + kt$

C = concentration at time t
C0 = initial conc.
k = rate constant
t = time

1st equation : $\frac{1}{0.56} = \frac{1}{C_0} + 115k$

2nd Equation: $\frac{1}{0.033} = \frac{1}{C_0} + 735k$

Find $\frac{1}{C_0}$ from 1st equation and put it in 2nd equation:

$\frac{1}{0.033} = \frac{1}{0.56} - 115k + 735k$

$\frac{1}{0.033} - \frac{1}{0.56} = 620k$

k = 0.046

What causes the different colors of layers in a sedimentary rock? A. the cooling process of the magma B. the weather in the area

OLga [1]

Different colors of sedimentary rock are determined by the environment where they are located. For example, red rocks form where oxygen is present. Darker sediments form when the environment is oxygen poor.

So, basically, the weather and surroundings of the rock, so B.
