The slow rate of a particular chemical reaction might be attributed to a) a low activation energy

Explanation:

Slow rate of reaction happens when the particles that are present in the elements that are to react do not interact fast enough or there is a chemical need of a catalyst.

When the activation energy is high the reaction takes place is less time than when the activation energy is actually low.

According to the theory of kinetics if the reaction is to be heated, the activation energy can be pumped up and the reaction will take place sooner.

Calculate the enthalpy of the formation of butane, C4H10, using the balanced chemical equation and the standard value below:
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

+125.4 KJmol-1

Explanation:

∆H C4H10(g) = -2877.6kJ/mol

∆H C(s)=-393.5kJ/mol

∆H H2(g) = -285.8

∆H reaction= ∆Hproducts - ∆H reactants

∆H reaction= (-2877.6kJ/mol) - [4(-393.5kJ/mol) +5(-285.8)]

∆H reaction= +125.4 KJmol-1

What are the effects of climate change? Answer this question integrating other topics of science.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

»Climatic change leads to malnutrition.

e.g when its cold season, osmoregulation decreases and rate of metabolism declines.

This is because the enzymes lack that optimum temperature for their catalytic activity to take place hence improper digestion.

»Leads to promotion of predation in ecosystem.

such as reptiles e.g snakes, lizards get away from shelters on cold days since they are cold blooded, hence their predators such as animals, birds increase.

How many grams of water can be produced from 4.6 grams of Hydrogen and 7.3 grams of Oxygen?
12345 [234]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8.21 g of H₂O

Explanation:

Data

mas of water = ?

mass of hydrogen = 4.6 g

mass of oxygen = 7.3 g

Balanced chemical reaction

                   2H₂  +  O₂  ⇒   2H₂O

Process

1.- Calculate the atomic mass of the reactants

Hydrogen = 4 x 1 = 4 g

Oxygen = 16 x 2 = 32 g

2.- Calculate the limiting reactant

Theoretical yield = H₂/O₂ = 4 / 32 = 0.125

Experimental yield = H₂/ O₂ = 4.6/7.3 = 0.630

From the results, we conclude that the limiting reactant is Oxygen because the experimental yield was higher than the theoretical yield.

3.- Calculate the mass of water

                   32 g of O₂ ---------------- 36 g of water

                   7.3 g of O₂ ---------------   x

                          x = (7.3 x 36) / 32

                          x = 262.8 / 32

                          x = 8.21 g of H₂O

A sample of gas has an initial volume of 15 L and an initial pressure of 4.5 atm. If the pressure changes to 1.8 atm, what is th
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

37.5 L

Explanation:

Initial Volume, V1 = 15L

Initial Pressure P1 = 4.5 atm

Final Pressure, P2 = 1.8 atm

Final Volume V2 = ?

The relationship between these variables is given as;

P1V1 = P2V2

V2 = PIV1 / P1

Inserting the values;

V2 = 4.5 * 15 / 1.8

V2 = 37.5 L
