Answer:
Electrons are trapped inside the atom because of the attraction forces with positively charged protons that are found in the nucleus.
Rate law for the given 2nd order reaction is:
Rate = k[a]2
Given data:
rate constant k = 0.150 m-1s-1
initial concentration, [a] = 0.250 M
reaction time, t = 5.00 min = 5.00 min * 60 s/s = 300 s
To determine:
Concentration at time t = 300 s i.e. ![[a]_{t}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ba%5D_%7Bt%7D)
Calculations:
The second order rate equation is:
![1/[a]_{t} = kt +1/[a]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%2F%5Ba%5D_%7Bt%7D%20%3D%20kt%20%2B1%2F%5Ba%5D)
substituting for k,t and [a] we get:
1/[a]t = 0.150 M-1s-1 * 300 s + 1/[0.250]M
1/[a]t = 49 M-1
[a]t = 1/49 M-1 = 0.0204 M
Hence the concentration of 'a' after t = 5min is 0.020 M
Since 1 mole of any element contains 6.0221023 atoms, a mole of carbon and a mole of oxygen will have the same number of atoms.
<h3>Is a mole of oxygen equivalent to a mole of carbon?</h3>
Answer and justification The molar mass of carbon differs from the molar mass of oxygen, hence this assertion is untrue. As a result, one mole of oxygen and one mole of carbon cannot have the same mass.
<h3>What kind of link unites carbon and oxygen?</h3>
A polar covalent link between carbon and oxygen is known as a carbon-oxygen bond. With six valence electrons, oxygen likes to either share two of them in a bond with carbon, leaving the remaining four unoccupied.
