Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Salt is a non-volatile solute and hence adding salt will increase the boiling point of water and hence reduce the vapor pressure. While on the other hand, adding more water will require more time to boil and hence produce vapor and thus the vapor pressure. Shaking will also not help in increasing the vapor pressure. Thus, only increasing the temperature of the water will create more vapors at a faster rate and hence increase the vapor pressure.

Thus, option B is the correct answer

PLEASE HELP!! 20 POINTS!

Answer:

Energy transformation, also known as energy conversion, is the process of changing energy from one type of energy to another. In physics, energy is a quantity that provides the capacity to perform work (e.g. lifting an object) or provides heat. In addition to being convertible, according to the law of conservation of energy, energy is transferable to a different location or object, but it cannot be created or destroyed.

The energy in many of its forms may be used in natural processes, or to provide some service to society such as heating, refrigeration, lighting or performing mechanical work to operate machines. For example, to heat a home, the furnace burns fuel, whose chemical potential energy is converted into thermal energy, which is then transferred to the home's air to raise its temperature.

A reaction between substances Y and Z is

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer : The value of activation energy for this reaction is 108.318 kJ/mol

Explanation :

The Arrhenius equation is written as:

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

Taking logarithm on both the sides, we get:

$\ln k=-\frac{Ea}{RT}+\ln A$ ............(1)

where,

k = rate constant = $2.95\times 10^{-3}L/mol.s$

Ea = activation energy = ?

T = temperature = 435 K

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K.mole

A = pre-exponential factor = $3.00\times 10^{+10}L/mol.s$

Now we have to calculate the value of rate constant by putting the given values in equation 1, we get:

$\ln (2.95\times 10^{-3}L/mol.s)=-\frac{Ea}{8.314J/K.mol\times 435K}+\ln (3.00\times 10^{10}L/mol.s)$

$Ea=108318.365J/mol=108.318kJ/mol$

Therefore, the value of activation energy for this reaction is 108.318 kJ/mol

Two samples of sodium chloride with different masses were decomposed into their constituent elements. One sample produced 1.731.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter c) 6.09 g of sodium and 9.38 g of chlorine.

Explanation:

This problem is solve using rule of three

We know that the proportion Sodium to Chloride is 1 to 1 in sodium chloride, so we have to look for this proportion in the options

AM Sodium = 23 g

AM Chlorine = 35.5 g

Sodium Chlorine

23 g ---------------- 1 mol 35.5 g -------------- 1 mol

1713.73g ------------- x 2666.6 g ------------- x

x = 1713.73/23 = 74.51 x = 2666.6/35.5 = 75.12

These values are very similar, we have to look for the proportion in the options

a) 6.09g of sodium = 0.26 mol

4,87 g of chlorine = 0.14 mol These numbers are not very similar

b) We have 0.26 mol of Na

0.037 mol of Cl This is not the answer

c) We have 0.26 mol of Na

0.26 mol of Cl These numbers are the same, the proportion is 1:1, this is the answer

d) We have 0.26 mol of Na

0.36 mol of Cl This is not the answer
