Suggest why sodium wasn’t produced until the early 19th century.

Chemistry

Answer:

The reason is that sodium attaches itself very strongly to other elements. Its compounds are very difficult to break apartand also because it is so reactive.

Given the equation representing a reversible reaction:
tester [92]

Answer:

- Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and hydronium ion (H₃O⁺)

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, based on the acid-base theory which states that acids are known as H⁺ donors, if we consider the direct reaction:

CH_3COOH(aq) + H_2O \rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)

It is clear that the acetic acid is the first H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into the acetate ion. Moreover, if we consider the inverse reaction:

CH_3COO^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(aq) + H_2O

It is also clear that the hydronium ion is the second H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into water.

Best regards.

The rate constant for the second-order reaction: 2NOBr(g) → 2NO(g) + Br2(g) is 0.80/(M · s) at 10°C. Starting with a concentrati
a_sh-v [17]

Answer : The concentration of NOBr after 95 s is, 0.013 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)

where,

k = rate constant = 0.80M^{-1}s^{-1}

t = time taken  = 95 s

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

[A]_o = Initial concentration = 0.86 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

0.80=\frac{1}{95}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.86)}\right)

[A] = 0.013 M

Hence, the concentration of NOBr after 95 s is, 0.013 M

Identify the element: 6 energy level, metallic, 82 election
Lady bird [3.3K]

<u>Answer</u>:-

Name of element = Lead

Symbol ♾ of Lead = Pb

Atomic no. = 82

Atomic mass = 207.2 amu

No. of protons = 82

No. of electrons = 82

Yes, lead(Pb) is a metallic element and certainly it has 6 electron shells which means 6 energy level.

If you find anything unclear you can ask me...

A sample of iron with a mass of 200g releases 9840 cal when it freezes at it’s freezing point. What is the molar heat of fusion
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:-

2747.7 Cal mol -1

Explanation:-

Molar heat of Fusion is defined as the amount of heat necessary to melt (or freeze) 1 mole of a substance at its melting point.

Atomic mass of Iron = 55.845 g mol-1

Mass of Iron = 200 g

Number of moles of Iron = 200 g / (55.845 g mol-)

= 3.581 moles

Heat released = 9840 Cal

Molar heat of Fusion = Heat released / Number of moles

= 9840 Cal / 3.581 moles

= 2747.7 Cal mol -1
