avanturin [10]3 years ago

Answer:

E = 17 kJ

Explanation:

The enthalpy of the reaction is:

\Delta H = E_{p} - E_{r}  

<u>Where</u>:

Ep: is the energy of the products

Er: is the energy of the reactants

Similarly, the enthalpy of the reaction is related to the activation energy forward (E_{F}) and to the activation energy reverse (E_{R}) as follows:

\Delta H = E_{F} - E_{R}  

Having that ΔH = 44 kJ and E_{F} = 61 kJ, the activation energy of the reverse reaction is:

E_{R} = E_{F} - \Delta H = 61 kJ - 44 kJ = 17 kJ  

Therefore, the activation energy of the reverse reaction is 17 kJ.

I hope it helps you!

What is the expected number of valence electrons in an atom of the element flerovium in ground state
ehidna [41]
Flerovium at its ground state is solid. It has electron configuration of [Rn]5f¹⁴6d¹⁰7s²7p². The expected number of valence electrons in a flerovium atom is 2. A ground state is the most stable state of an atom at satndard temperature and pressure.

A 0.100 mile sample of gas is at a temperature of 85.0 degrees C and a volume of 3.47 L. What is the pressure of the gas( in mm
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: 64.6 mmHg

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of gas V = 3.47L

(since 1 liter = 1dm3

3.47L = 3.47dm3)

Temperature T = 85.0°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(85.0°C + 273 = 358K)

Pressure P = ?

Number of moles of gas N = 0.100 mole

Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.0082 ATM dm3 K-1 mol-1

Then, apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

p x 3.47dm3 = 0.10 x (0.0082 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 358K)

p x 3.47dm3 = 0.29 atm dm3

p = (0.29 atm dm3 / 3.47 dm3)

p = 0.085 atm

Recall that pressure of the gas is required in mm hg, so convert 0.085 atm to mm Hg

If 1 atm = 760 mm Hg

0.085atm = 0.085 x 760

= 64.6 mm Hg

Thus, the pressure of the gas is 64.6 mm hg

Which gas law (choices are Charles' Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, or Boyle's Law) explains each scenario:________.
posledela

Answer:

A.  Boyle's Law

B.  Charles' Law

C. Gay-Lussac's Law

Explanation:

An air bag inflates due to the decomposition of sodium azide or NaN₃ to completely fill the bag with nitrogen gas which is an example of Boyle's law, which states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its volume, hence due to the estricted volume of the airbag, the pressure of the nitrogen gas in the bag increses protecting the occupants of a cr from injuries in a crash

Helium balloon decrease in sice in a freezer is an example of Charlles law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is nverslely proportionl to its temperature at constant pressure

A can of spray paint will explode if tossed into a fire is an example of Gay-Lussac's Law which states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature hence the increased pressure causes the can ti explode
