Answer : If the temperature is decreased to 100 K then the rate constant will be, decrease.

Explanation :

According to the Arrhenius equation,  the rate constant of the reaction is directly proportional to the temperature.

K=a\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

Taking ln on both the sides, we get

\ln K=\frac{-Ea}{RT}+\ln a

where,

K = rate constant

Ea = activation energy

T = temperature

R = gas constant

a = Arrhenius constant

As we know that the increase in the rate of reaction with increase in the temperature is mainly due to increase in the number of effective collision. That means as the temperature increases, the number of effective collision increases and the value of rate constant also increases or vice-versa.

As per question, the temperature of the reaction decreases that means the number of effective collision decreases and the value of rate constant also decreases.

Hence, if the temperature is decreases from 298 K to 100 K then the rate constant will be, decrease.

As temperature decreases, rate decreases. 

As temp increases, k also increases. </span>

Where are fusion reactions found
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

In a nuclear fusion reaction, the nuclei of two atoms combine to create a new atom. Most commonly, in the core of a star, two hydrogen atoms fuse to become a helium atom. Although nuclear fusion reactions require a lot of energy to get started, once they are going they produce enormous amounts of energy.

Un globo lleno de helio tenia un volumen de 8.5 L en el suelo a 20°C y a una presión de 750 torr. Cuando se le soltó, el globo s
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

El volumen del gas era 12.95 L

Explanation:

Se relaciona la presión y el volumen mediante la ley de Boyle, que dice:

“El volumen ocupado por una determinada masa gaseosa a temperatura constante, es inversamente proporcional a la presión”

La ley de Boyle se expresa matemáticamente como:  P*V=k

Por otro lado, la Ley de Charles consiste en la relación que existe entre el volumen y la temperatura absoluta de una cierta cantidad de gas ideal, el cual se mantiene a una presión constante. Esta ley dice que cuando la cantidad de gas y de presión se mantienen constantes, el cociente que existe entre el volumen y la temperatura siempre tendrán el mismo valor:  

\frac{V}{T}=k

Por último, la Ley de Gay Lussac dice que la temperatura absoluta y la presión son directamente proporcionales. Es decir, cuando se mantiene todo lo demás constante, mientras suba la temperatura de un gas subirá también su presión. Y mientras la temperatura del gas baje, lo mismo ocurrirá con la presión:

\frac{P}{T}=k

Combinado las mencionadas tres leyes se obtiene:

\frac{P*V}{T} =k

Cuando se desean estudiar dos diferentes estados, uno inicial y una final de un gas, se puede aplicar:

\frac{P1*V1}{T1} =\frac{P2*V2}{T2}

Recordando que la temperatura debe usarse en grados Kelvin, conoces los siguientes datos:

  • P1: 750 torr
  • V1: 8.5 L
  • T1: 20°C= 293°K (siendo 0°C=273°K)
  • P2: 425 torr
  • V2: ?
  • T2: -20°C= 253 °K

Reemplazando:

\frac{750 torr*8.5 L}{293K} =\frac{425 torr*V2}{253 K}

Resolviendo:

V2=\frac{750 torr*8.5 L}{293K} *\frac{253 K}{425 torr}

V2= 12.95 L

<u><em>El volumen del gas era 12.95 L</em></u>
