The reaction 2NO2(g)+F2(g)-->2NO2F(g) has an overall second order rate law, rate=k[NO2][F2]. Suggest a mechanism consistent w

ith this rate law, being sure to label steps as fast and slow. (Hint: It is easiest to assume the first step is slow.)

<span>The reason why it is easiest to assume the first step is slow is because that would be your rate determining step and would give you the rate law given in the problem. So you take the two compounds from the rate law given and put them as your two reactants in your first step: NO2 + F2 ---> NO2F + F (all gases) Your next step needs to make sense for your overall reaction. And you also need to have an intermediate which in this case will be F: F + NO2 ---> NO2F (again all gases) This is the fast step. Your intermediate cancels out to give you your overall equation: 2NO2 + F2 ---> 2NO2F (all gases)</span>

Lead(II) oxide from an ore can be reduced to elemental lead by heating in a furnace with carbon. Calculate the expected yield of
Lelu [443]

Answer:

53kg is the expected yield of lead

Explanation:

Firstly, in order to solve this question, we need to write the equation of reaction correctly. This is as follows:

PbO(s) + C(s) ---> Pb(l) + CO(g)

We proceed from here. We should get the limiting reactant but this can only be obtained by getting the number of moles of each reactant present.

The formula to use across all boards is that the number of moles is the mass of each of the reactant divided by the molar mass of each of the reactant.

For PBO, mass is 57kg = 57000g

Molar mass of PBO = 223.20g/mol

The number of moles is thus 57,000/223.2 = 255.37 moles

For carbon, mass is also 57kg = 57000g

Molar mass is 12g/mol

Number of moles of carbon = 57000/12 = 4750 moles

From the number of moles, we can see that the number of moles of Carbon is greater than that of PbO. This means that PbO is the limiting reagent.

Hence we use it to calculate percentage yield.

The number of moles of lead formed is the same of number of moles of lead oxide = 255.37 since we have mole ratio of 1 to 1

The molar mass of lead is 207.20g/mol

The mass of lead formed is = moles of lead formed * molar mass of lead = 207.20 * 255.37 = 52,912g which is approximately 53kg

Hence the expected yield is 53kg

describe the law of conservation of energy and two examples of energy being transformed from one type to another.
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

look in the explanation part

Explanation:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

At the beginning of an experiment, a scientist has 176 grams of radioactive goo. After 165 minutes, her sample has decayed to 5.
Paul [167]
The half-life equation is written as:

An = Aoe^-kt

We use this equation for the solution. We do as follows:

5.5 = 176e^-k(165)
k = 0.02
<span>What is the half-life of the goo in minutes? 
</span>
0.5 = e^-0.02t
t = 34.66 minutes <----HALF-LIFE


Find a formula for G(t) , the amount of goo remaining at time t.G(t)=? 

G(t) = 176e^-0.02t

How many grams of goo will remain after 50 minutes? 

G(t) = 176e^-0.02(50) = 64.75 g
