The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

A common "rule of thumb" for many reactions around room temperature is that the rate will double for each ten degree increase in temperature. Does the reaction you have studied seem to obey this rule? (Hint: Use your activation energy to calculate the ratio of rate constants at 300 and 310 Kelvin.)

Solutions :

If we consider the activation energy to be constant for the increase in 10 K temperature. (i.e. 300 K → 310 K), then the rate of the reaction will increase. This happens because of the change in the rate constant that leads to the change in overall rate of reaction.

Let's take :

$T_1=300 \ K$

$T_2=310 \ K$

The rate constant = $K_1 \text{ and } K_2$ respectively.

The activation energy and the Arhenius factor is same.

So by the arhenius equation,

$K_1 = Ae^{-\frac{E_a}{RT_1}}$  and $K_2 = Ae^{-\frac{E_a}{RT_2}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{K_1}{K_2}= \frac{e^{-\frac{E_a}{RT_1}}}{e^{-\frac{E_a}{RT_2}}} $

$\Rightarrow \frac{K_1}{K_2}=  e^{-\frac{E_a}{R}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}\right)}$

$\Rightarrow \ln \frac{K_1}{K_2}= - \frac{E_a}{R} \left(\frac{1}{T_1} -\frac{1}{T_2} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \ln \frac{K_2}{K_1}=  \frac{E_a}{R} \left(\frac{1}{T_1} -\frac{1}{T_2} \right)$

Given, $E_a = 0.269$ J/mol

           R = 8.314 J/mol/K

$\Rightarrow \ln \frac{K_2}{K_1}=  \frac{0.269}{8.314} \left(\frac{1}{300} -\frac{1}{310} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \ln \frac{K_2}{K_1}=  \frac{0.269}{8.314} \times \frac{10}{300 \times 310}$

$\Rightarrow \ln \frac{K_2}{K_1}=  3.479 \times 10^{-6}$

$\Rightarrow  \frac{K_2}{K_1}=  e^{3.479 \times 10^{-6}}$

$\Rightarrow  \frac{K_2}{K_1}=  1$

∴ $K_2=K_1$

So, no this reaction does not seem to follow the thumb rule as its activation energy is very low.

If 0.959J of heat is added to 0.88g of water, how much will its temperature increase
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

0.260 Celsius

Explanation:

q =c x m x (T2-T1)

c - specific heat of water 4.186 J/g.C

T2-T1 = q /(c x m) = 0.959 /(4.186 x 0.88) = 0.959/3.68 =0.260 C

It is best to dispense chemicals from large stock bottles into smaller containers for use at your lab station because smaller co
Orlov [11]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Dispensing chemical from large stock bottles into smaller container makes sure that students only takes the quantity they need which reduces wastage. Also in situation where the students did not finish the reagent or chemical it is easier for student to pour back into smaller bottle than the entire reagent bottle which can contaminate the whole solution. Small bottles prevent or reduces the risk of spillage because it is easier to handle and pour.
