Answer:

answer 1

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy establishes that the masses are not destroyed, they can only be transformed.

Therefore the mass of carbon in the reactants (CO2 and H2O) must be in the products (glucose and oxygen)

so the correct statement is the first

The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products

Explanation:

The expression that best describes this reaction is that the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

During the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide combines with water using solar energy to produce glucose and oxygen.

It can expressed as depicted below:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

To validate our choice;

This is a balanced chemical equation:

6 moles of carbon is found on the reactant side and also, 6 mole of carbon on the product side.

But Glucose is not found on both sides of the expression

Consider the following reaction between mercury(II) chloride and oxalate ion:

siniylev [52]

Answer : The reaction rate will be, $1.9\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$2HgCl_2(aq)+C_2O_2^{4-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cl^-(aq)+2CO_2(g)+HgCl_2(s)$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[HgCl_2]^a[C_2O_2^{4-}]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to $HgCl_2$

b = order with respect to $C_2O_2^{4-}$

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$3.2\times 10^{-5}=k(0.164)^a(0.15)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$2.9\times 10^{-4}=k(0.164)^a(0.45)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

$1.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.082)^a(0.45)^b$ ....(3)

Expression for rate law for fourth observation:

$4.8\times 10^{-5}=k(0.246)^a(0.15)^b$ ....(4)

Dividing 1 from 2, we get:

$\frac{2.9\times 10^{-4}}{3.2\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{k(0.164)^a(0.45)^b}{k(0.164)^a(0.15)^b}\\\\9=3^b\\(3)^2=3^b\\b=2$

Dividing 3 from 2, we get:

$\frac{2.9\times 10^{-4}}{1.4\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{k(0.164)^a(0.45)^b}{k(0.082)^a(0.45)^b}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[HgCl_2]^1[C_2O_2^{4-}]^2$

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

Putting values in above rate law, we get:

$3.2\times 10^{-5}=k(0.164)^1(0.15)^2$

$k=8.7\times 10^{-3}M^{-2}s^{-1}$

Now we have to determine the reaction rate when the concentration of $HgCl_2$ is 0.135 M and that of $C_2O_2^{-4}$ is 0.40 M.

$\text{Rate}=k[HgCl_2]^1[C_2O_2^{4-}]^2$

$\text{Rate}=(8.7\times 10^{-3})\times (0.135)^1\times (0.40)^2$

$\text{Rate}=1.9\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Therefore, the reaction rate will be, $1.9\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Question 3 0

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Option D. KBr < KCl < NaCl

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of each sample.

This can be obtained as follow:

For NaCl:

Mass = 1 g

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mole of NaCl =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of NaCl = 1/58.5

Mole of NaCl = 0.0171 mole

For Kbr:

Mass = 1 g

Molar mass of KBr = 39 + 80 = 119 g/mol

Mole of KBr =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of KBr = 1/119

Mole of KBr = 0.0084 mole

For KCl:

Mass = 1 g

Molar mass of KCl = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5 g/mol

Mole of KCl =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of KCl = 1/74.5

Mole of KCl = 0.0134 mole

Summary

Sample >>>>>>>> Number of mole

NaCl >>>>>>>>>> 0.0171

KBr >>>>>>>>>>> 0.0084

KCl >>>>>>>>>>> 0.0134

Arranging the number of mole of the sampl in increasing order, we have:

KBr < KCl < NaCl
