Balanced chemical equation: BaCl2(aq)+Na2SO4(aq)⟶BaSO4(s)+2NaCl(aq)
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Part 1)  85.3 grams NaCl

Part 2)  8.79 x 10²³ formula units NaCl

Explanation:

<u>(Part 1)</u>

To find the mass of NaCl, you need to multiply the given value (1.46 moles) by the molar mass of NaCl. This measurement is the atomic masses of the elements times each of their quantities combined. In this case, there is only one mole of each element in the molecule. Moles should be located in the denominator of the conversion to allow for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given value.

Molar Mass (NaCl): 22.99 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol
Molar Mass (NaCl): 58.44 g/mol

1.46 moles NaCl            58.44 g
---------------------------  x  ----------------  =  85.3 grams NaCl
                                        1 mole

<u>(Part 2)</u>

I do not know which other question the second part is referring to, so I will just use the moles given in the first part. To find the formula units, you need to multiply the given value (1.46 moles NaCl) by Avogadro's Number. This conversion represents the number of formula units found in 1 mole of the sample. The moles should be in the denominator of the conversion to allow for the cancellation of units.

Avogadro's Number:

1 mole = 6.022 x 10²³ formula units

1.46 moles NaCl         6.022 x 10²³ units
------------------------  x  -----------------------------  =  8.79 x 10²³ formula units NaCl
                                          1 mole

A voltaic cell consists of a Pb/Pb2+ half-cell and a Cu/Cu2+ half-cell at 25 ?C. The initial concentrations of Pb2+ and Cu2+ are
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

a) Ecell = 0.5123 V

b) Ecell =  0.4695 V

c) [Pb2 +] = 4.75 M

Explanation:

a)

The reaction at the cathode is represented as follows:

Cu2 + + 2e- -> Cu (s) Eocathode = 0.34 V

The reaction at the anode is equal to:

Pb (s) -> Pb2 + + 2e- Eoanode = -0.13 V

The number of moles of the electrons that are involved is equal to n = 2

Standard cell potential equals Eo = Eocathode - Eoanode = 0.34 V- (-0.13 V) = 0.47 V

 The initial cell potential can be calculated with the following formula:

Ecell = Eocell - - 0.0592 / n) log ([(Pb2 +)] / [(Cu2 +)]) = 0.47 - (0.0592 / 2) log (0.052 / 1.4) = 0.5123 V

b)

The reaction in the cell is equal to:

Cu2 + + Pb (s) -> Cu (s) + Pb2 +

The concentration of Cu2 that gives the exercise is equal 0.2 M

Therefore, the change in concentration for Cu2 + is equal to:

Cu2 + = 1.4 M - 0.2 M = 1.2 M

We use the formula from part a)

Ecell = Eocell - (0.0592 / n) log ([(Pb2 +)] / [(Cu2 +)]) = 0.47 - (0.0592 / 2) log (1,252 / 1.2) = 0.4695 V

c)

To find the concentration of Pb2 + when there is a potential change in the cell of 0.37 V, we must clear the concentration of Pb2 + from the following formula:

Eccell = Echocell - (0.0592 / n) log (([Pb2 +]) / ([Cu2 +]))

0.0296 log ([Pb2 +] / [Cu2 +]) = (Eocélula - Ecélula / 0.0296)

Clearing Pb2 +:

[Pb2 +] = 4.75 M

The activation energy of a certain uncatalyzed biochemical reaction is 50.0 kJ/mol. In the presence of a catalyst at 37°C, the r
rodikova [14]

Answer:

E₁ ≅ 28.96 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Given that:

The activation energy of a certain uncatalyzed biochemical reaction is 50.0 kJ/mol,

Let the activation energy for a catalyzed biochemical reaction = E₁

E₁ = ??? (unknown)

Let the activation energy for an uncatalyzed biochemical reaction = E₂

E₂ = 50.0 kJ/mol

    = 50,000 J/mol

Temperature (T) = 37°C

= (37+273.15)K

= 310.15K

Rate constant (R) = 8.314 J/mol/k

Also, let the constant rate for the catalyzed biochemical reaction = K₁

let the constant rate for the uncatalyzed biochemical reaction = K₂

If the  rate constant for the reaction increases by a factor of 3.50 × 10³ as compared with the uncatalyzed reaction, That implies that:

K₁ = 3.50 × 10³

K₂ = 1

Now, to calculate the activation energy for the catalyzed reaction going by the following above parameter;

we can use the formula for Arrhenius equation;

K=Ae^{\frac{-E}{RT}}

If K_1=Ae^{\frac{-E_1}{RT}} -------equation 1     &

K_2=Ae^{\frac{-E_2}{RT}} -------equation 2

\frac{K_1}{K_2} = e^{\frac{-E_1-E_2}{RT}

E_1= E_2-RT*In(\frac{K_1}{K_2})

E_1= 50,000-8.314*310.15*In(\frac{3.50*10^3}{1})

E_1 = 28957.39292  J/mol

E₁ ≅ 28.96 kJ/mol

∴ the activation energy for a catalyzed biochemical reaction (E₁) = 28.96 kJ/mol
