Answer:

c. Can't decide with information given.

Explanation:

The chemical and physical processes can be classified as endothermic or exothermic. The first one happens when the system absorbs heat, so the temperature of the surroundings will decrease, and the other one happens when the system releases heat, then the temperature of the surrounds will increase.

Precipitation is the formation of a solid in a solution. The process can happen with absorption or release of heat, it depends on the substance. So, with the information given it's impossible to say it.

The conversion of methyl isonitrile to acetonitrile in the gas phase at 250 °C CH3CN(g) is first order in CH3NC with a rate cons

nadya68 [22]

Answer: The concentration of $CH_3NC$ will be $1.56\times 10^{-2}M$ after 416 seconds have passed.

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $3.00\times 10^{-3}s^{-1}$

t = age of sample = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant = $5.45\times 10^{-2}M$

a - x = amount left after decay process = $1.56\times 10^{-2}M$

$t=\frac{2.303}{3.00\times 10^{-3}}\log\frac{5.45\times 10^{-2}}{1.56\times 10^{-2}}$

$t=416s$

The concentration of $CH_3NC$ will be $1.56\times 10^{-2}M$ after 416 seconds have passed.

Suppose you have 100 grams of radioactive plutonium-239 with a half-life of 24,000 years. how many grams of plutonium-239 will r

Alexandra [31]

To solve this problem, let us first calculate for the rate constant k using the half life formula:

t1/2 = ln 2 / k

where t1/2 = half life period = 24,000 years, therefore k is:

k = ln 2 / 24,000

k = 2.89 x 10^-5 / yr

Now we use the rate equation:

A = Ao e^(-k t)

where,

A = mass of Plutonium-239 after number of years

Ao = initial mass of Plutonium-239

t = number of years

A. t = 12,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 12,000)

A = 70.7 g

B. t = 24,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 24,000)

A = 50 g

C. t = 96,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 96,000)

A = 6.24 g

A 151.5-g sample of a metal at 75.0°C is added to 151.5 g at 15.1°C. The temperature of the water rises to 18.7°C. Calculate the

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.268 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the metal = 151.5 grams

The temperature of the metal = 75.0 °C

Temperature of water = 15.1 °C

The temperature of the water rises to 18.7°C.

The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/°C*g

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal

heat lost = heat gained

Q = m*c*ΔT

Qmetal = - Qwater

m(metal) * c(metal) * ΔT(metal) = m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

⇒ mass of the metal = 151.5 grams

⇒ c(metal) = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ΔT( metal) = T2 - T1 = 18.7 °C - 75.0 °C = -56.3 °C

⇒ mass of the water = 151.5 grams

⇒ c(water) = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT(water) = 18.7° - 15.1 = 3.6 °C

151.5g * c(metal) * -56.3°C = 151.5g * 4.184 J/g°C * 3.6 °C

c(metal) = 0.268 J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.268 J/g°C
