The decomposition time : 7.69 min ≈ 7.7 min

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

rate constant : 0.029/min

a concentration of  0.050 mol L  to a concentration of 0.040 mol L

Required

the decomposition time

Solution

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time

For first-order reaction :

[A]=[Ao]e^(-kt)

or

ln[A]=-kt+ln(A0)

Input the value :

ln(0.040)=-(0.029)t+ln(0.050)

-3.219 = -0.029t -2.996

-0.223 =-0.029t

t=7.69 minutes

Write a chemical equation for the reaction that occurs in the following cell: Cu|Cu2+(aq)||Ag+(aq)|Ag Express your answer as a b
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cell reaction properly written is shown below:

              Cu|Cu²⁺_{aq} || Ag⁺_{aq} | Ag

From this cell reaction, to get the net ionic equation, we have to split the reaction into their proper oxidation and reduction halves. This way, we can know that is happening at the electrodes and derive the overall net equation.

  Oxidation half:

                  Cu_{s}  ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻

At the anode, oxidation occurs.

  Reduction half:

                  Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ ⇄ Ag_{s}

At the cathode, reduction occurs.

To derive the overall reaction, we must balance the atoms and charges:

             Cu_{s}  ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻

              Ag⁺_{aq} + e⁻ ⇄ Ag_{s}

  we multiply the second reaction by 2 to balance up:

         2Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag_{s}

The net reaction equation:

Cu_{s} + 2Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ + 2Ag_{s}

We then cancel out the electrons from both sides since they appear on both the reactant and product side:

  Cu_{s} + 2Ag⁺_{aq} ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2Ag_{s}

The molar mass of oxygen gas (O2) is 32.00 g/mol. The molar mass of C3H8 is 44.1 g/mol.
alexira [117]
<span>the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
 C</span>₃H₈ + 5O₂ ---> 3CO₂ + 4H₂<span>O
                   
stoichiometry of </span> C₃H₈ to O₂ is 1:5
   
number of moles of  C₃H₈ reacted - 0.025 g / 44.1 g/mol = 0.000567 mol according to molar ratio of 1:5
number of O₂ moles required are 5 times the amount of  C₃H₈ moles reacted therefore number of O₂ moles required - 0.000567 x 5 = 0.00284 mol .
mass of O₂ required - 0.00284 mol x 32.00 g/mol = 0.091 mol .
 answer is 0.091 mol

The diagram illustrates the water cycle.
MissTica

Answer:

Precipitation

Explanation:

In the water cycle, water experiences different phase changes from one state to another in nature.

The cycling affords water to in solid, liquid and the vapor form.

From the cycle show, W represents precipitation.

  • During precipitation, water in the atmosphere begins to fall.
  • U is evaporation
  • X is transpiration.
  • V is the condensation.
