Answer:

t = 21.5 min.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the kinetics of a first-order reaction is:

\frac{[A]}{[A]_0}=exp(-kt)

Thus, since we are given the 11.7 min for a 58.6-% consumption, we can compute the rate constant, k:

ln(1-0.586)=-kt\\\\k=\frac{ln(0.414)}{-t}=\frac{-0.882}{11.7min}=0.0754min^{-1}

Now, for the second problem, as the new consumption is 80.2%, we can compute the required time as shown below:

ln(1-0.802)=-kt\\\\t=\frac{ln(198)}{k} \\\\t=\frac{-1.62}{0.0754min^{-1}}\\\\t=21.5min

Best regards!

Explain the difference between qualitative and quantitative properties.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Qualitative properties are properties that are observed and can generally not be measured with a numerical result. They are contrasted to quantitative properties which have numerical characteristics.

Which of the following solutions is more concentrated?<br> 0.50M KCl or 5.0% (w/v) KCl
HACTEHA [7]

.50 M KCl because 5% is the same as .05, which makes the .50M more concentrated.

Hi guys, my question is:
guapka [62]

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Explanation:

A) The rate law can only be on the reactant side and you can only determine it after you get the net ionic equation because of spectators cancelling out. So in this case the rate law is k=[CH3Br]^1 [OH-]^1. The powers are there because the rxn is first order.  

B) Since the rxn is first order anything you do to it will be the exact same "counter rxn" per say so since you are decreasing the OH- by 5 the rate will decease by 5

C) The rate will increase by 4 since you are doubling both you have to multiply them both.

26 Which process occurs in an operating voltaic cell?(1) Electrical energy is converted to chemical energy.
tia_tia [17]

Answer is: (2) Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy.

An electrochemical cell (voltaic or galvanic cell) is generating electrical energy from chemical reactions.

In galvanic cell, specie (for example zinc and zinc cations) from one half-cell, lose electrons (oxidation) and species from the other half-cell (for example copper and copper cations) gain electrons (reduction).

Oxidation on the zinc anode: Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.

Reduction on the copper cathode: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s).
