The activation energy Ea can be related to rate constant (k) at temperature (T) through the equation:
ln(k2/k1) = Ea/R[1/T1 - 1/T2]
where :
k1 is the rate constant at temperature T1
k2 is the rate constant at temperature T2
R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K-mol
Given data:
k1 = 0.543 s-1; T1 = 25 C = 25+273 = 298 K
k2 = 6.47 s-1; T = 47 C = 47+273 = 320 K
ln(6.47/0.543) = Ea/8.314 [1/298 - 1/320]
2.478 = 2.774 *10^-5 Ea
Ea = 0.8934*10^5 J = 89.3 kJ
The balanced chemical reaction for the complete combustion of C4H10 is shown below:
C4H10 + (3/2)O2 --> 4CO2 + 5H2O
The enthalpy of formation are listed below:
C4H10: -2876.9 kJ/mol
O2: none (because it is pure substance)
CO2: -393.5 kJ/mol
H2O: -285.8 kJ/mol
The enthalpy of combustion is computed by subtracting the total enthalpy formation of the reactants from that of the products.
ΔHc = (4)(-393.5 kJ/mol) + (5)(-285.8 kJ/mol) - (-2876.9 kJ/mol)
= -<em>126.1 kJ</em>
Thus, the enthalpy of combustion of the carbon is -126.1 kJ.
Hey there Abigaildonaimor,
A cyclist rode at an average speed of 10mph for 15 miles. How long was the ride?
Answer:
Time = Distance / Rate
= 15 miles / 10mph
= 1.5 hours
Hope this helps :D

Answer:
it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s)
Explanation:
So, from the question/problem above we are given the following ionic or REDOX equations of reactions;
Cu2+ + 2e- <--------------------------------------------------------------> Cu (s) Eo= 0.339 V
Sn2+ + 2e- <---------------------------------------------------------------> Sn (s) Eo= -0.141 V
In order to convert 99.99% Cu2 into Cu(s), the equation of reaction given below is needed:
Cu²⁺ + Sn ----------------------------------------------------------------------------> Cu + Sn²⁺.
Therefore, E°[overall] = 0.339 - [-0.141] = 0.48 V.
Therefore, the change in Gibbs' free energy, ΔG° = - nFE°. Where E° = O.48V, n= 2 and F = 96500 C.
Thus, ΔG° = - 92640.
This is less than zero[0]. Therefore, it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) because the reaction is a spontaneous reaction.
