Answer

Accordingly the order of electronegativity of the given elements would be: Fluorine > Chlorine > Bromine > Iodine. ( Fluorine has the highest electronegativity.)

A _____ change occurs when a substance changes phase.<br> physical<br> chemical<br> nuclear

Tasya [4]

A physical change occurs when a substance changes phase.

For example, boiling pure water (H₂O) is physical change of substance (from liquid to gaseous state). In physical change, the bonds between oxygen and hydrogen can not be separated.

Sublimation of iodine (from solid to gas state) is also physical change.

Physical property can be observed and measured without any changes in molecular composition. The same substance is present before and after the change.

The following data was collected for the formation of ammonia (NH3) based on the following overall reaction: N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3 N2

notsponge [240]

Answer : The unit for the rate constant in the rate law for the formation of ammonia is, $M^{-2}min^{-1}$

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[N_2]^a[H_2]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to $N_2$

b = order with respect to $H_2$

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$0.0021=k(0.10)^a(0.10)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$0.0084=k(0.10)^a(0.20)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

$0.0672=k(0.20)^a(0.40)^b$ ....(3)

Dividing 2 by 1, we get:

$\frac{0.0084}{0.0021}=\frac{k(0.10)^a(0.20)^b}{k(0.10)^a(0.10)^b}\\\\4=2^b\\b=2$

Dividing 3 by 1 and also put value of b, we get:

$\frac{0.0672}{0.0021}=\frac{k(0.20)^a(0.40)^2}{k(0.10)^a(0.10)^2}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[N_2]^a[H_2]^b$

$\text{Rate}=k[N_2]^1[H_2]^2$

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

$0.0021=k(0.10)^1(0.10)^2$

$k=2.1M^{-2}min^{-1}$

The value of the rate constant 'k' for this reaction is $2.1M^{-2}min^{-1}$

That means, the unit for the rate constant in the rate law for the formation of ammonia is, $M^{-2}min^{-1}$

Which of the substances in the chart has the least density?

3241004551 [841]

Answer:
Option-D (Piece of Wood) is the correct answer.

Explanation:
Density is related to mass and volume as,

Density = Mass / Volume
For Wood,
Density = 42.5 / 50

Density = 0.85

You can calculate remaining densities by yourself. Among all the density of Piece of Wood is the least.

Write the balanced chemical equations for the decomposition of solid calcium hydroxide into solid calcium (ii) oxide (lime) and

Lesechka [4]

Calcium oxide (CaO) or lime in solid form can be prepared from the decomposition of calcium hydroxide {Ca $(OH)_{2}$ in to lime (CaO) and water ( $H_{2}O$ at high temperature. The reaction is an endothermic reaction. That is heat is absorbed in this reaction process. One mole of calcium hydroxide decomposed into one mole of calcium oxide and one mole of water. The balanced reaction can be shown as-CaC $O_{3}$ (solid) → CaO (solid) + $H_{2}O$ (liquid). The heat of the reaction is (+) 63.7 kJ/mole of CaO.
