Answer:
using a more concentrated potassium hydroxide
Explanation:
<em>The option that would likely increase the rate of reaction would be to use a more concentrated potassium hydroxide.</em>
<u>The concentration of reactants is one of the factors that affect the rate of reaction. The more the concentration of the reactants, the faster the rate of reaction. </u>
Granted that there are enough of the other reactants, increasing the concentration of one of the reactants will lead to an increased rate of reaction.
Hence, using a more concentrated potassium hydroxide which happens to be one of the reactants would likely increase the rate of reaction.
Hi. I can't help you if you don't have an equation. Please provide one.
Answer:
Explanation:
This question seeks to test the knowledge of separation techniques.
From the narration in the question, the first separation to be done is the removal of Iron fillings by the use of magnet (magnetic separation). Since Iron is magnetic, the iron fillings will be attracted by the magnet hence removing the iron fillings from the mixture.
The second constituent to be removed will be the copper pieces by the use of a sieve (sieving). Copper pieces have relatively larger sizes than sand and common salt, hence a sieve (which separates particles based on size) can be used to remove the copper pieces from the mixture.
What will be left in the mixture after the processes above will be salt and water. This mixture will have to be dissolved in water; the salt will dissolve in water while the sand will not. After which, filtration will be done to remove the sand which will be collected on the filter paper as filtride and the salt solution will pass through the filter paper as filtrate.
The salt solution can then be evaporated to dryness to retrieve the solid salt from the solution.
The amount of salt in the mixture can then be measured using a weighing balance.
Some of safety measures to be taken during the course of this experiment includes performing the experiment in an airtight and controlled environment. Lab coat and hand gloves should be worn during the course of the experiment. The evaporation to dryness should not be done close to an inflammable material/substance
The answer is 185.87g to 2 decimal places.
We substitute the enthalpies for the reactants in the equation:
101 + 142.3 = ΔH + 247.5
ΔH = -4.2 kJ/mol
