What type of state is glass? please explain about it.
Paul [167]
On a small time scale, glass is in a solid state. When you look at a window, it appears solid.

However, it has been observed that over a very long period, glass starts to act like a liquid.

It can thus be characterized by two different states depending on the time scale considered.<span />

The water-gas shift reaction describes the reaction of carbon monoxide and water vapor to form carbon dioxide and hydrogen (the
sesenic [268]

Answer:

ΔH∘ = - 41.2 KJ

Explanation:

We want to obtain the change in enthalpy for the reaction

CO(g) + H₂O(g) → CO₂(g) + H₂(g) (Main reaction)

And we're given the heat of formation of the reactants and products in the reaction

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH∘=−393.5kJ (Reaction A)

2CO(g) → 2C(s) + O₂(g) ΔH∘=+221.0kJ (Reaction B)

2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g) ΔH∘=−483.6kJ (Reactions C)

To achieve this, we use the Born-Haber cycle.

The Born-Haber cycle entails writing the change in enthalpy of a reaction as a sum of change in enthalpies of a number of reactions that sum up to give the reaction whose enthalpy we needed from the start.

The main reaction is a sum of a sort of combination of Reactions A, B and C. We find this combination now.

From the reactions whose change in enthalpies are given,

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH∘=−393.5kJ (Reaction A)

2CO(g) → 2C(s) + O₂(g) ΔH∘=+221.0kJ (Reaction B)

Dividing through by 2

CO(g) → C(s) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH∘=+110.5kJ (the enthalpy is divided by 2 too)

This reaction becomes (Reaction B)/2

2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g) ΔH∘=−483.6kJ (Reactions C)

Changing the direction of the reaction

2H₂O(g) → 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH∘=483.6kJ (the sign on the change in enthalpy changes)

Then, dividing by 2

2H₂O(g) → 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH∘=+483.6kJ

H₂O(g) → H₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH∘=241.8kJ (the change in enthalpy is divided by 2 too)

This reaction becomes (-Reaction C)/2

But, now, our main reaction can be written as a sum of these new Reactions,

Main Reaction = (Reaction A) + [(Reaction B)/2] + [(- Reaction C)/2]

C(s) + O₂(g) + CO(g) + H₂O(g) → CO₂(g) + C(s) + (1/2)O₂(g) + H₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g)

Which gives the main reaction after eliminating the O2 that appears on both sides.

CO(g) + H₂O(g) → CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

Hence,

(ΔH∘ for the main reaction) = (ΔH∘ for reaction A) + [(ΔH∘/2) for reaction B) - [(ΔH∘/2) for reaction C)

ΔH∘ = - 393.5 + (221/2) - (-483.6/2) = - 41.2 KJ

How long will it take for a 40.0 gram sample of I-131 (half-life = 8.4 days) to decay to 1/16 its original mass?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

42 days

Explanation:

Half life = 8.4 days

Starting mass = 40.0 g

Time = ?

Final Mass = 1/16 * 40 = 2.5 g

First Half life;

Remaining mass = 40 / 2 = 20g

Second Half life;

Remaining mass = 20 / 2 = 10g

Third Half life;

Remaining mass = 10 / 2 = 5g

Fourth Half life;

Remaining mass = 5 / 2 = 2.5g

Time = Number of half lives * Duration of half life = 5 * 8.4 = 42 days

The irreversible elementary gas-phase reaction is carried out isothermally at 305 K in a packed-bed reactor with 100 kg of catal
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

0.856.

Explanation:

Lets represent the irreversible elementary gas phase equation of reaction as

A + B -----------------------------------> C + D

We have that the percentage of conversion is 80%.

The pressure, p from the ratio of exit pressure and entering pressure is p = 2/20 = 1/10 = 0.1.

Therefore, n = 1 - p^2/ weight of the catalyst = 1 - 0.1^2/ 100 = 9.9 × 10^-3 kg cat^-.

Now, let's make use of the equation below;

J/ 1 - J = kb^2/ u [ w - nw^2/2] ----------(1).

0.8 / 1- 0.8 = k ( 0.4)^2/ 10 [ 100 - (9.9× 10^-3 × 100^2/ 2] .

k = 4.95 dm^6/ kg.cat .mol.min

The turbulent flow= 1/2 × 9.9 × 10^-3 = 4.95 × 10^-3 kg cat^-.

Thus, making use of the equation (1) again, we have that;

{4.95 × 10^-3 × 0.4}/ 10 × [ 100 - (4.95 × 10^-3 × 100^2)] / 2 = 5.964.

Therefore, a/1 - a = 5.964.

5.964( 1 - a) = a.

5.964 - 5.964a = a.

5.964 = a + 5.964a.

5.964 = 6.964a.

a = 5.964/ 6.964 = 0.856.
