Answer: The activation energy Ea for this reaction is 22689.8 J/mol

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius equation with change in temperature, the formula is as follows.

ln \frac{k_{2}}{k_{1}} = \frac{-E_{a}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_{2}} - \frac{1}{T_{1}}]

k_1 = rate constant at temperature T_1 = 2.3\times 10^8

k_2 = rate constant at temperature T_2 = 4.8\times 10^8

E_a= activation energy = ?

R= gas constant = 8.314 J/kmol

T_1 = temperature = 280.0^0C=(273+280)=553K

T_2 = temperature = 376.0^0C=(273+376)=649K

Putting in the values ::

ln \frac{4.8\times 10^8}{2.3\times 10^8} = \frac{-E_{a}}{8.314}[\frac{1}{649} - \frac{1}{553}]

E_a=22689.8J/mol

The activation energy Ea for this reaction is 22689.8 J/mol

How would I go about solving this problem?
kherson [118]
The first thing you need to do with problem of this kind is to write the chemical equation. This would help you in calculations later. First, convert how many moles are there in 1.75g of carbon dioxide. Then, from the chemical equation you will know how many moles of sodium bicarbonate formed with 1 mole of carbon dioxide. Then convert the moles of sodium bicarbonate to grams using the molecular weight of the compound. You now have your answer.

14. Which group of diamagnetic transition metals exhibits trends in density and melting points that don't match the same trends
inn [45]

Answer:

Group 12

Explanation:

Group 12 transition metals are diamagnetic. They behave properties that distinguish them. They naturally have twelve electrons hence their outermost shell is fully filled.

Transition metals have high densities which increases down the group. However, the increase in density of transition elements of group 12 varies with temperature at a rate that is quite different from other transition elements. Hence the differences in the value of melting points and density changes by only a very small amount as you come down group 12 compared to other groups of transition elements.

In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.

Liquid hexane
maks197457 [2]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of H_2O produced is 2.52 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.  The equation used is:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

  • <u>For hexane:</u>

Given mass of hexane = 1.72 g

Molar mass of hexane = 86.18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of hexane}=\frac{1.72g}{86.18g/mol}=0.020mol

  • <u>For oxygen gas:</u>

Given mass of oxygen gas = 8.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas= 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{8.0g}{32g/mol}=0.25mol

The chemical equation for the combustion of hexane follows:

2C_6H_{14}+19O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+14H_2O

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane reacts with 19 moles of oxygen gas

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will react with = \frac{19}{2}\times 0.020=0.19mol of oxygen gas

As the given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hexane is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane produces 14 moles of H_2O

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will produce = \frac{14}{2}\times 0.020=0.14mol of H_2O

We know, molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.14mol\times 18g/mol)=2.52g

Hence, the mass of H_2O produced is 2.52 g
