Answer:
Zn(s) + Fe(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Fe(s)
Explanation:
When metal zinc is added to an iron (II) nitrate solution, we can see the following redox reaction:
Zn(s) + Fe(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Fe(s)
Zinc is oxidized since its oxidation number increases from 0 to +2.
Iron is reduced since its oxidation number decreases from +2 to 0.
Answer:
51.79g Li₃P.
Explanation:
Li has a molar mass of 6.94 g (since there are 3, you multiply it 3 times) and P has a molar mass of 30.97 g. 6.94(3) + 30.97 = 51.79g.
To determine which order of the reaction it is, first we need to calculate the rate of change of moles.
the data is as follows
time 0 40 80 120 160
moles 0.100 0.067 0.045 0.030 0.020
Q1)
for the first 40 s change of moles ;
= -d[A] / t
= - (0.067-0.100)/40s
= 8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
for the next 40 s
= -(0.045-0.067)/40
= 5.5 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
the 40 s after that
= -(0.030-0.045)/40 s
= 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
k - rate constant
and A is the only reactant that affects the rate of the reaction
rate = k [A]ᵇ
8.25 × 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.100 mol]ᵇ ----1
5.5 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.067 mol]ᵇ -----2
divide the 2nd equation by the 1st equation
1.5 = [1.49]ᵇ
b is almost equal to 1
Therefore this is a first order reaction
Q2)
to find out the rate constant(k), we have to first state the equation for a first order reaction.
rate = k[A]ᵇ
As A is the only reactant thats considered for the rate equation.
Since this is a first order reaction,
b = 1
therefore the reaction is
rate = k[A]
substituting the values,
8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.100 mol]
k = 8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s /0.100mol
= 8.25 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity can be calculated using the following equation: q = mc∆T In the equation q represents the amount of heat energy gained or lost (in joules ), m is the mass of the substance (in grams), c is the specific heat capacity of the substance (in J/g °C), and ∆T is the temperature change of the substance
Answer:
If temperature increases, as it does in most reactions, a chemical change is likely to be occurring. This is different from the physical temperature change. During a physical temperature change, one substance, such as water is being heated.
