Answer:

Solution temperature.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, considering this question about chemical kinetics, it will be possible for us to analyze two perspectives:

1. Molecular: here, we infer that the solution temperature will provide more energy to the molecules in order to undergo more effective crashes which will make more products and therefore, increase the rate constant.

2. Mathematical: by means of the Arrhenius equation, it will be possible to tell that the increase in the temperature of the system, the negative of the exponent present in such equation will increase and therefore turn the rate constant bigger.

In such way, we infer the answer is solution temperature.

Regards!

A 0.885 M solution of KBr whose initial volume is 82.5 mL has more water added until its concentration is 0.500 M. What is the n

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

$V_2=146mL$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the equation for the calculation of dilutions is:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

Whereas M is the molarity and V the volume, because the final concentration is lower than the initial. Thus, since we are asked to calculate the final volume, we solve for V2 as follows:

$V_2=\frac{M_1V_1}{M_2}=\frac{0.885M*82.5mL}{0.500M}\\\\V_2=146mL$

Best regards!

The vapor above a mixture of pentane and hexane at room temperature contains 35.5% pentane by mass. What is the mass percent com

FrozenT [24]

The mass percent of Pentane in solution is 16.49%

The mass percent of Hexane in solution is 83.51%

<u>Explanation</u>:

Take 1 kg basis for the vapor: 35.5 mass% pentane = 355 g pentane with 645 g hexane.

Convert these values to mol% using their molecular weights:

Pentane: Mp = 72.15 g/mol -> 355g/72.15 g/mol = 4.92mol

Hexane: Mh = 86.18 g/mol -> 645g/86.18 g/mol = 7.48mol

Pentane mol%: yp = 4.92/(4.92+7.48) = 39.68%

Hexane mol%: yh = 100 - 39.68 = 60.32%

Pp-vap = 425 torr = 0.555atm

Ph-vap = 151 torr = 0.199atm

From Raoult's law we know:

Pp = xp $\times$ Pp - vap = yp $\times$ Pt (1)

Ph = xh $\times$ Ph - vap = yh $\times$ Pt (2)

Since it is a binary mixture we can write xh = (1 - xp) and yh = (1 - yp), therefore (2) becomes:

(1 - xp) $\times$ Ph - vap = (1 - yp) $\times$ Pt (3)

Substituting (1) into (3) we get:

(1-xp) $\times$ Ph - vap = (1 - yp) $\times$ xp $\times$ Pp - vap / yp (4)

Rearrange for xp:

xp = Ph - vap / (Pp - vap/yp - Pp - vap + Ph - vap) (5)

Subbing in the values we find:

Pentane mol% in solution: xp = 19.08%

Hexane mol% in solution: xh = 80.92%

Now for converting these mol% to mass%, take 1 mol basis for the solution and multiplying it by molar mass:

mp = 0.1908 mol $\times$ 72.15 g/mol

= 13.766 g

mh = 0.8092 mol $\times$ 86.18 g/mol

= 69.737 g

Mass% of Pentane solution = 13.766/(13.766+69.737)

= 16.49%

Mass% of Hexane solution = 83.51%
