Answer:

27.4 g/mol

Explanation:

Assuming the compound is a gas and that it behaves ideally, we can solve this problem by using the PV=nRT formula, where:

P = 1.22 atm

V = 245 mL ⇒ 245 mL / 1000 = 0.245 L

n = ?

R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹

T = 298 K

Inputting the data:

1.22 atm * 0.245 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 298 K

Solving for n:

n = 0.0122 mol

With the calculated number of moles and given mass, we calculate the molar mass:

0.334 g / 0.0122 mol = 27.4 g/mol

In the activity series, any metal on the list can be oxidized by the ions of elements_______it.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Below

Nitric acid

Lead

Sodium nitrate

Explanation:

The activity series is an arrangement of metals in order of decreasing reactivity. Metals that are higher up in the series displace metals that are lower in the series from dilute solutions. Hence, when the ion of a metal that is lower in the series reacts with a metal that is higher up in the series, the latter is oxidized.

Dilute acids dissolve metals above hydrogen in the activity series such as as zinc and lead. Platinum is much lower than sodium in the activity series hence platinum does not react with sodium nitrate.

An excited ozone molecule, O3*, in the atmosphere can undergo one of the following reactions,O3* → O3 (1) fluorescenceO3* → O +

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The simplified expression for the fraction is $\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cM} }{k_1 +k_2 + k_3 }$

Explanation:

From the given information:

O3* → O3 (1) fluorescence

O + O2 (2) decomposition

O3* + M → O3 + M (3) deactivation

The rate of fluorescence = rate of constant (k₁) × Concentration of reactant (cO)

The rate of decomposition is = k₂ × cO

The rate of deactivation = k₃ × cO × cM

where cM is the concentration of the inert molecule

The fraction (X) of ozone molecules undergoing deactivation in terms of the rate constants can be expressed by using the formula:

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ \text {rate of deactivation} }{ \text {(rate of fluorescence) +(rate of decomposition) + (rate of deactivation) } } }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cO \times cM} }{ {(k_1 \times cO) +(k_2 \times cO) + (k_3 \times cO \times cM) } }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cO \times cM} }{cO (k_1 +k_2 + k_3 \times cM) }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cM} }{k_1 +k_2 + k_3 }$ since cM is the concentration of the inert molecule
