Copper roofs on houses form patina (copper carbonates) over the course of years due to the reaction with oxygen, carbon dioxide

and water in the air. Which of the following statements is incorrect for this process?
A) The reaction has a low activation energy.
B) The reaction has a low reaction rate.
C) The formation of patina would occur faster during the summer than the winter.
D) The formation of patina would occur slower at higher altitudes due to lower concentration of reactant. E) Adding a catalyst would increase the rate of patina formation.

Answer:

The answer is "Choice A".

Explanation:

In this question, the choice A is wrong because when the copper panels on houses produce a patina (copper oxide) through occur as a consequence of reactions from oxygen and water in the air, these reaction does not have low activation energy because lower activation energy that is stored in a faster response rate.

Answer:

During the process of reaching thermal equilibrium heat is transferred between the object. heat is always transferred from the object at the higher temperature to the object with lower temperature. For a gas, the heat transfer is related to a change in temperature.

Saponification is a chemical reaction _____. A. due to the presence of a strong organic acid. B. that results in an alcohol and
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

that results in an alcohol and a carboxylic acid.

Explanation:

Saponification is a chemical reaction process of alkaline hydrolysis of esters(R'COOR group) by which soap is obtained.

For Example, when a base such as sodium hydroxide [NaOH]  is used to hydrolyze an ester, the products are a carboxylate salt and an alcohol. Because soaps are prepared by the alkaline hydrolysis of fats and oils.

In a saponification reaction, alkaline hydrolysis of fats and oils with sodium hydroxide  yields propane-1,2,3-triol and the corresponding sodium salts of the component fatty acids.

i.e  Fat or oil + caustic alkali ⇒ Soap + propane-1,2,3-triol

As a specific example, ethyl acetate and NaOH react to form sodium acetate and ethanol:

The energy of a photon needed to cause ejection of an electron from a photoemissive metal is expressed as the sum of the binding
slega [8]

Answer:

Binding\ energy=43.43\times 10^{-20}\ J

Explanation:

Using the expression for the photoelectric effect as:

E=h\nu_0+\frac {1}{2}\times m\times v^2

Also, E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

\nu_0=\frac {c}{\lambda_0}

Applying the equation as:

\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}=\frac {hc}{\lambda_0}+\frac {1}{2}\times m\times v^2

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda is the wavelength of the light being bombarded

Given, \lambda=4.00\times 10^{-7}\ m

\frac {hc}{\lambda_0} is the binding energy or threshold energy

\frac {1}{2}\times m\times v^2 is the kinetic energy of the electron emitted.  = 6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J

Thus, applying values as:

\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}=Binding\ Energy+Kinetic\ Energy

\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{4.00\times 10^{-7}}\ J=Binding\ Energy+6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J

\frac{19.878}{10^{19}\times \:4}\ J=Binding\ Energy+6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J

49.69\times 10^{-20}\ J=Binding\ Energy+6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J

Binding\ energy=43.43\times 10^{-20}\ J
