djyliett [7]

b

Explanation:

February 7, 1863, was the day John Newlands published a paper outlining what would be known as “The Law of Octaves”. Newlands discovered if he ordered the known elements by increasing atomic weight, the chemical properties of the elements would be similar for every eighth group

He rate constant of a reaction is 4.55 × 10−5 l/mol·s at 195°c and 8.75 × 10−3 l/mol·s at 258°c. what is the activation energy o
Xelga [282]

Answer : The activation energy of the reaction is, 17.285\times 10^4kJ/mole

Solution :  

The relation between the rate constant the activation energy is,  

\log \frac{K_2}{K_1}=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}\times [\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

K_1 = initial rate constant = 4.55\times 10^{-5}L/mole\text{ s}

K_2 = final rate constant = 8.75\times 10^{-3}L/mole\text{ s}

T_1 = initial temperature = 195^oC=273+195=468K

T_2 = final temperature = 258^oC=273+258=531K

R = gas constant = 8.314 kJ/moleK

Ea = activation energy

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the activation energy.

\log \frac{8.75\times 10^{-3}L/mole\text{ s}}{4.55\times 10^{-5}L/mole\text{ s}}=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times (8.314kJ/moleK)}\times [\frac{1}{468K}-\frac{1}{531K}]

Ea=17.285\times 10^4kJ/mole

Therefore, the activation energy of the reaction is, 17.285\times 10^4kJ/mole

Which hold more heat for longer period of time ? <br><br> A. Air <br> B. Water
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

water

Explanation:

The heat capacity of a material, along with its total mass and its temperature, tell us how much thermal energy is stored in a material. ... <u>The result is that the temperature of the water cube is much more stable than the air — the water changes much more slowly; it holds onto its temperature longer.</u>

A reaction mixture initially contains 0.86 atm NO and 0.86 atm SO3. Determine the equilibrium pressure of NO2 if Kp for the reac
dlinn [17]

Explanation:

Reaction equation for this reaction is as follows.

     NO(g) + SO_{3}(g) \rightarrow NO_{2}(g) + SO_{2}(g)

It is given that K_{p} = 0.0118.

According to the ICE table,

              NO(g) + SO_{3}(g) \rightarrow NO_{2}(g) + SO_{2}(g)

Initial:           0.86      0.86               0            0

Change:          -x          -x                 +x           +x

Equilibrium:  0.86 - x   0.86 - x         x           x

Hence, value of K_{p} will be calculated as follows.

           K_{p} = \frac{P_{NO_{2}} \times P_{SO_{3}}}{P_{NO} \times P_{SO_{3}}}

         0.0118 = \frac{x \times x}{(0.86 - x)^{2}}

             x = 0.084 atm

Thus, we can conclude that P_{NO_{2}} is 0.084 atm.
