In order to determine the oil content of different types of potato crisps (chips), a student weighed 5.00g of crushed crisps and

mixed them with 20.0cm3 of non-polar solvent.
She assumed all the oil in the crisps dissolved in the solvent.
The student then filtered the mixture to remove any solids, and gently heated the solution on a hot plate to evaporate the solvent.
She measured the mass of the oil that remained from each type of crisps
Suggest why a non-polar solvent was needed.

An exponent of "2" means that if we double the concentration of the reactant the rate doubles as well Exponents in rate laws are
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

- False.

- False.

- True.

- True.

Explanation:

Hello, for each statement we state:

- An exponent of "2" means that if we double the concentration of the reactant the rate doubles as well.

FALSE because considering a rate law like:

-r=kC^2

The exponent of "2" powers the concentration to the second power, not doubles the rate law, thus, if C is 3, for k=1, r will be -9. On the other hand if the rate is like:

-r=kC

The rate will be -3, that is why the rate is not doubled when the "2" in concentration is present.

- Exponents in rate laws are based on the coefficients from the balanced equation.

FALSE because for nonelemental chemical reactions, the exponents do not match with each species' stoichiometric coefficients in the rate law.

- The rate constant, k, takes into account the effect of activation energy and temperature on the reaction.

TRUE, since the Arrhenius equation allows us to prove the effect of the activation energy and the temperature:

k=Aexp(-\frac{Ea}{RT})

- Differential rate laws allow us to compare concentration and time.

TRUE as they are given like:

\frac{1}{\nu _A} \frac{dC_A}{dt} =\frac{1}{\nu _B} \frac{dC_B}{dt} =...

Best regards.

Which of these pairs of elements have the same number of valence electrons?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Both carbon and lead belong to Group IV elements, and thus they have the same number of valence electrons. 
<span>In each of the other options, the two elements belong to different groups, and thus they do NOT have the same number of valence electrons.</span>
