The concentration of ozone in ground-level air can be determined by allowing the gas to react with an aqueous solution of potass

ium iodide, KI, in a redox reaction that produces molecular iodine, molecular oxygen, and potassium hydroxide. Assume 1 atm and 25.0 C
(a) Deduce the balanced reaction for the overall process
(b) Determine the ozone concentration, in ppb, in a 10.0 L sample of outdoor air if it required 17.0 ug of KI to react with it.

Answer:

a) 2KI + O₃ + H₂O ----> I₂ + O₂ + 2KOH

b) Ozone concentration = 0.246 ppb

Explanation:

a) The balanced equation for the reaction is

2KI + O₃ + H₂O ----> I₂ + O₂ + 2KOH

b) We first convert 17 μg of KI to number of moles

Number of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

Molar mass of KI = 166 g/mol

Mass of KI that reacted = 17 μg = (17 × 10⁻⁶) g

Number of moles = (17 × 10⁻⁶)/166

Number of moles of KI that reacted = (1.0241 × 10⁻⁷) moles

From the stoichiometric balance of the reaction,

2 moles of KI reacts with 1 mole of O₃

Then, (1.0241 × 10⁻⁷) moles of KI will react with (1.0241 × 10⁻⁷ × 1/2) moles of O₃

Number of moles of O₃ that reacted = (5.12 × 10⁻⁸) moles.

To express the amount of O₃ in 10.0 L of air in ppb, we need to convert the amount of O₃ that reacted.

Mass = (number of moles) × (molar mass)

Molar mass of O₃ = 48 g/mol

Mass of O₃ that reacted = (5.12 × 10⁻⁸) × 48 = 0.0000024578 g = (2.46 × 10⁻⁶) g

Concentration in ppb = (Mass of solute in μg)/(volume of solution in L)

Mass of solute = Mass of O₃ = (2.46 × 10⁻⁶) g = 2.46 μg

Volume of solution = 10.0 L

Concentration of O₃ in air in ppb = 2.46/10 = 0.246 ppb

A bowling ball (mass = 7.2 kg, radius = 0.10 m) and a billiard
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Maximum gravitational Force: F_{gmax} = 1,026*10^{-08} N

Explanation:

The maximum gravitational force is achieved when the center of gravity are the closer they can be. For the spheres the center of gravity is at the center of it, so the closer this two centers of gravity can be is:

bowling ball radius + billiard ball radius = 0,128 m

The general equation for the magnitude of gravitational force is:

F_{gmax}  = G \frac{M*m}{r_{min}^{2} }

Solving for:

G = 6,67*10^{-11}  \frac{Nm^{2}}{kg^{2}}

M = 7,2 kg

m = 0,35 kg

r_{min} = 0,128 m

The result is:

F_{gmax} = 1,026*10^{-08} N

1. Stirring increases the rate of solution
Blababa [14]

Answer:

1) <em>The correct answer is A. Collision</em>

2) A hot solvent helps a solid dissolve faster because an increase in <u><em>kinetic energy</em></u> that also increases the rate of collisions

Explanation:

When a solute is added into a solvent and stirred, the solute particles get distributed to all parts of the solvent as a result of stirring.

More collisions occur between the solute and the solvent due to stirring. This increases the rate of dissolving.

<em>When a solvent is heated, then the kinetic energy would increase and the atoms will collide with a much greater force. As a result, ore solute will be able to dissolve in the solvent. </em>
