Hypochlorous acid decays in the presence of ultraviolet radiation. Assume that degradation occurs accord- ing to first-order kin

etics and the rate of degradation was measured to be 0.12 day−1 (at a particular sun- light intensity and temperature). Given this, how long does it take for the concentration of hypochlorous acid to reach nondetectable levels (0.05 mg · L−1) if the initial concentration were 3.65 mg · L−1?

Answer:

35.75 days

Explanation:

From the given information:

For first-order kinetics, the rate law can be expressed as:

\mathsf{In \dfrac{C}{C_o} = -kt}

Given that:

the rate degradation constant = 0.12 / day

current concentration C = 0.05 mg/L

initial concentration C₀ = 3.65 mg/L

\mathsf{In( \dfrac{0.05}{3.65})= -(0.12) t}

㏑(0.01369863014) = -(0.12) t

-4.29 = -(0.12)

t = -4.29/-0.12

t = 35.75 days

What is the ph of a solution made by mixing 25.00 ml of 0.100 m hcl with 40.00 ml of 0.100 m koh? assume that the volumes of the
Digiron [165]
<span>Answer: The HCl and KOH will react until one or the other is gone. As you have a larger volume of an equal concentration of HCl, the KOH will go first. moles HCl = 0.04000 L * 0.100 M = 0.00400 moles moles KOH = 0.02500 L * 0.100 M = 0.00250 moles moles HCl left = 0.00400 - 0.00250 = 0.00150 moles Your total volume is now 65.00 mL, so the [HCl] = 0.00150 moles / 0.06500 L = 0.0231 M = [H+] pH = -log [H+] = -log (0.0231) = 1.64</span>

If you start with 0.020 g of Mg, how many moles of H2 will you make if the reaction is complete?
irina [24]

If one starts with 0.020 g of Mg, 0.0008 moles of H2 would be made if the reaction is complete.

Going by the balanced equation of reaction in the image, 1 mole of Mg will produce 1 mole of H2 in a complete reaction.

If 0.020 g of Mg is started with:

mole of Mg = mass/molar mass

                        = 0.020/24.3

                            = 0.0008 moles

Since the mole of Mg to H2 is 1:1, thus, 0.0008 moles of H2 will also be made from the reaction.

Why do the two electrons spend their time equally between both hydrogen atoms? In other words, why can’t one hydrogen just take

Because it is a covalent bond meaning that they share the electrons to achieve full valence.
