Explanation:

Silver and Gold belong to a special group of metals known as the native metals. They are found naturally on their own and not in combined form in rocks.

  • These metals are found uncombined because they are unreactive.
  • They prefer to alloy with themselves.
  • Calcium and magnesium on the other hand are reactive metals.
  • The unreactivity of these metals makes them uncombined in nature.

The rate constant for a certain reaction is k = 4.70×10−3 s−1 . If the initial reactant concentration was 0.700 M, what will the
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Therefore the concentration of the reactant after 4.00 minutes will be 0.686M.

Explanation:

The unit of k is s⁻¹.

The order of the reaction = first order.

First order reaction: A first order reaction is  a reaction in which the rate of reaction depends only the value of the concentration of the reactant.

-\frac{d[A]}{dt} =kt

[A] = the concentration of the reactant at time t

k= rate constant

t= time

Here k= 4.70×10⁻³ s⁻¹

t= 4.00

[A₀] = initial concentration of reactant = 0.700 M

-\frac{d[A]}{dt} =kt

\Rightarrow -\frac{d[A]}{[A]}=kdt

Integrating both sides

\Rightarrow\int -\frac{d[A]}{[A]}=\int kdt

⇒ -ln[A] = kt +c

When t=0 , [A] =[A₀]

-ln[A₀]  = k.0 + c

⇒c= -ln[A₀]  

Therefore

-ln[A] = kt - ln[A₀]

Putting the value of k, [A₀] and t

- ln[A] =4.70×10⁻³×4 -ln (0.70)

⇒-ln[A]=  0.375

⇒[A] = 0.686

Therefore the concentration of the reactant after 4.00 minutes will be 0.686M.

Answer the question briefly: How can atom collapse and why are atoms stable?
kykrilka [37]

The nuclei of atoms become unstable when the repelling forces of the protons cannot be balanced by the number of neutrons in the nucleus. It then re-arranges itself randomly to a more stable configuration by emitting any of a series of particles. During radioactive decay, an atom does not collapse.

Since an atom is mostly empty space - that is it’s nucleus is relatively distant from the electron shells so, in the presence of extreme forces such as gravity inthe collapse of a large star, the inward pressures on the atom overcome the natural balance of the atomic structure and the ‘empty space’ disappears as nuclei are mashed together by the intense pressures and a neutron star is formed. Under even more external pressure, even the neutron star can collapse to form a black hole.
