~<u>My Answer</u><u>~</u>:

Water is the enabler of fast oxidation of iron so freshwater will also cause rust. However, salt water is a very good conductor (lots of dissociated ions) and so there are a number of electrolysis reactions that tremendously accelerate corrosion in salt water.

What are the missing coefficients for the skeleton equation below? Cr(s)+Fe(NO3)2(aq)>Fe(s)+Cr(NO3)3(aq)

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

2 Cr(s) + 3 Fe(NO3)2(aq) = 3 Fe(s) + 2 Cr(NO3)3(aq)

Explanation:

I balanced this chemical equation so that both sides are equal, meaning that the mass of reactants is equal to mass of products.

In the titration of 50. 0 mL of 0. 400 M HCOOH with 0. 150 M LiOH, how many mL of LiOH are required to reach the equivalence poi

mart [117]

The volume of the 0.15 M LiOH solution required to react with 50 mL of 0.4 M HCOOH to the equivalence point is 133.3 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

HCOOH + LiOH —> HCOOLi + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid, HCOOH (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base, LiOH (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of LiOH </h3>

Molarity of acid, HCOOH (Ma) = 0.4 M
Volume of acid, HCOOH (Va) = 50 mL
Molarity of base, LiOH (Mb) = 0.15 M

Volume of base, LiOH (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.4 × 50) / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

20 / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

Cross multiply

0.15 × Vb = 20

Divide both side by 0.15

Vb = 20 / 0.15

Vb = 133.3 mL

Thus, the volume of the LiOH solution needed is 133.3 mL

The decomposition of acetaldehyde is a second order reaction with a rate constant of 4.71 10−8 L/mol/s. What is the instantaneou

pochemuha

Answer: Rate of decomposition of acetaldehyde in a solution is $1.45\times 10^{-14}mol/Ls$

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

For a reaction : $A\rightarrow products$

$Rate=k[A]^x$

k= rate constant

x = order of the reaction = 2

$Rate=4.71\times 10^{-8}L/mol/s\times {5.55\times 10^{-4}M}^2$

$Rate=1.45\times 10^{-14}$

Thus rate of decomposition of acetaldehyde in a solution is $1.45\times 10^{-14}mol/Ls$
