Hello!

Some <em>benefits</em> of using nitrous oxide in a vehicle are as follows:

* N2O produces a larger combustion and thus fuels the car for longer periods of time.

* N2O is comparatively inexpensive for what its worth.

* N2O, under certain circumstances, is safer than other alternative sources of fuel because it's not flammable.

Some <em>disadvantages</em> of using nitrous oxide in a vehicle are as follows:

* Since N2O is a gas, it takes up a lot of empty space and can't be stored in large amounts.

* It can occasionally blow up, even though it almost never does.

I hope I helped! :-)

How do seismologists, or scientists who study earthquakes, know that the largest known earthquake to hit the region occurred aro

denis23 [38]

Answer:

By looking at the amount of time between the P and S wave on a seismographs recorded on a seismograph, scientists can tell how far away the earthquake was from that location. However, they can't tell in what direction from the seismograph the earthquake was, only how far away it was.

A second-order reaction has a rate law: rate = k[a]2, where k = 0.150 m−1s−1. If the initial concentration of a is 0.250 m, what

Cerrena [4.2K]

Rate law for the given 2nd order reaction is:

Rate = k[a]2

Given data:

rate constant k = 0.150 m-1s-1

initial concentration, [a] = 0.250 M

reaction time, t = 5.00 min = 5.00 min * 60 s/s = 300 s

To determine:

Concentration at time t = 300 s i.e. $[a]_{t}$

Calculations:

The second order rate equation is:

$1/[a]_{t} = kt +1/[a]$

substituting for k,t and [a] we get:

1/[a]t = 0.150 M-1s-1 * 300 s + 1/[0.250]M

1/[a]t = 49 M-1

[a]t = 1/49 M-1 = 0.0204 M

Hence the concentration of 'a' after t = 5min is 0.020 M
