<span>Explanation:
</span><span />

<span>1) A first order reaction is that whose rate is proportional to the concenration of the reactant:
</span><span />

<span>r = k [N]
</span><span />

<span>r = - d[N]/dt =

3) Half life => N = No / 2, t = t'
</span><span />

<span>=> No - No/ 2 = kt' => No /2 = kt' => t' = (No/2) / k
</span><span />

<span>3) Plug in the data given: No = 0.884M, and k = 5.42x10⁻²M/s

Answer:

The half-life (in seconds) of a zero-order reaction is 8.15 seconds.

Explanation:

Initial concentration of the of the reactant = [A_o]=0.884 M

The value of rate constant = k=5.42\times 10^{-2} M/s

The half life for zero order reaction is given as:

t-{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{[A_o]}{2k}=\frac{0.884 M}{2\times 5.42\times 10^{-2} M/s}=8.15 s

The half-life (in seconds) of a zero-order reaction is 8.15 seconds.

What is the significance of "Er" in the diagram?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The significance of "Er" in the diagram is :

B.) Threshold energy for reaction

Explanation:

Threshold energy : It is total amount of energy required by the reactant molecule to reach the transition state .

Activation energy : It is the excess energy absorbed by the molecules to reach the transition state.

<u>Activation Energy = Threshold Energy - Average Kinetic Energy</u>

<u>This means Activation energy decreases on increasing kinetic energy</u>

On increasing Temperature average kinetic energy of the molecule increases which reduces the activation energy and the reaction occur faster in that case.

Catalyst also reduces the Activation energy.

<u>Er = Threshshold energy for reaction at 30 degree</u>

<u>Ea = Activation Energy</u>

<u>The given figure shows that the threshold energy decreases on increasing the temperature</u>

<u>Only the molecule having energy greater than Er can react to form product</u>

How many grams of water can be produce from the complete reaction of excess nitric acid and 33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide
Mariulka [41]

Mass of water produced : 0.146 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide

Required

mass of water

Solution

Reaction

HNO₃ (aq) + LiOH (aq) → H₂O (l) + LiNO₃ (aq)

mol LiOH :

= M x V

= 0.245 x 33.2 ml

= 8.134 mmol

From the equation, the mol ratio of HNO₃ : H₂O = 1 : 1, so mol H₂O = 8.134 mmol

mass H₂O :

= mol x MW

= 8.134 x 10⁻³ mol x 18 g/mol

= 0.146 g
