Answer:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

General Reaction.

Example.

Mechanism. Acid catalysis is required during ester hydrolysis due to water being a weak nucleophile. Protonation of the ester carbonyl increases the partial positive charge on the carbonyl carbon increasing its electrophilicity.

What occurs when a solid substance dissolves into a liquid? 1 It stays solid and sinks to the bottom of the liquid substance. 2

katrin [286]

Explanation:

When a solid substance is dissolved in a liquid such as water, the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules in the solid substance are overcome and they exist as ions in the solution. Hence the answer is 2.

He rate constant of a reaction is 4.55 × 10−5 l/mol·s at 195°c and 8.75 × 10−3 l/mol·s at 258°c. what is the activation energy o

Xelga [282]

Answer : The activation energy of the reaction is, $17.285\times 10^4kJ/mole$

Solution :

The relation between the rate constant the activation energy is,

$\log \frac{K_2}{K_1}=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}\times [\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]$

where,

$K_1$ = initial rate constant = $4.55\times 10^{-5}L/mole\text{ s}$

$K_2$ = final rate constant = $8.75\times 10^{-3}L/mole\text{ s}$

$T_1$ = initial temperature = $195^oC=273+195=468K$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $258^oC=273+258=531K$

R = gas constant = 8.314 kJ/moleK

Ea = activation energy

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the activation energy.

$\log \frac{8.75\times 10^{-3}L/mole\text{ s}}{4.55\times 10^{-5}L/mole\text{ s}}=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times (8.314kJ/moleK)}\times [\frac{1}{468K}-\frac{1}{531K}]$

$Ea=17.285\times 10^4kJ/mole$

Therefore, the activation energy of the reaction is, $17.285\times 10^4kJ/mole$
