Answer:

rate = k[A][B] where k = k₂K

Explanation:

Your mechanism is a slow step with a prior equilibrium:

\begin{array}{rrcl}\text{Step 1}:& \text{A + B} & \xrightarrow [k_{-1}]{k_{1}} & \text{C}\\\text{Step 2}: & \text{C + A} & \xrightarrow [ ]{k_{2}} & \text{D}\\\text{Overall}: & \text{2A + B} & \longrightarrow \, & \text{D}\\\end{array}

(The arrow in Step 1 should be equilibrium arrows).

1. Write the rate equations:

-\dfrac{\text{d[A]}}{\text{d}t} = -\dfrac{\text{d[B]}}{\text{d}t} = -k_{1}[\text{A}][\text{B}] + k_{1}[\text{C}]\\\\\dfrac{\text{d[C]}}{\text{d}t} = k_{1}[\text{A}][\text{B}] - k_{2}[\text{C}]\\\\\dfrac{\text{d[D]}}{\text{d}t} = k_{2}[\text{C}]

2. Derive the rate law

Assume k₋₁ ≫ k₂.  

Then, in effect, we have an equilibrium that is only slightly disturbed by C slowly reacting to form D.  

In an equilibrium, the forward and reverse rates are equal:

k₁[A][B] = k₋₁[C]

[C] = (k₁/k₋₁)[A][B] = K[A][B] (K is the equilibrium constant)

rate = d[D]/dt = k₂[C] = k₂K[A][B] = k[A][B]

The rate law is  

rate = k[A][B] where k = k₂K

When the concentrations of CO2 and H2CO3 are both horizontal lines then the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.

<h3>What is rate of reaction?</h3>

The term rate of reaction refers to how fast or slow a reaction proceeds. Recall that the rate  of reaction is measured from the rate of disappearance of reactants or the rate of appearance of products.

When the [CO2] and [H2CO3 ] are both horizontal lines, the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.

Let us recall that the reaction is reversible hence addition of H2CO3  will increase the concentration of H2CO3, the reverse reaction would be favored.

How many moles of aluminum oxide al2o3 are in a sample with a mass of 204.0
erik [133]

Answer:

2 moles

Explanation:

Let us first start by calculating the molecular mass of Al₂O₃.

The mass of a mole of any compound is called it's molar mass. 1 molar mass 6.02 X 10²³, or Avogadro's number, of compound entities.

Say, 1 mole of Al₂O₃ has 6.02 X 10²³ of Al₂O₃ molecules/atoms. It also has 2*6.02 X 10²³ number of Al atoms and 3*6.02 X 10²³ number of O atoms.

Molecular mass of Al : 26.981539 u

Molecular mass of O: 15.999 u

Therefore, molecular mass of Al₂O₃ is:

= (2*26.981539) + (3*15.999) u

= 101.960078 u

This can be approximated to 102 u.

1mole weighs 102 u

So, 2moles will weigh 2*102 = 204 u

The combustion of butane produces heat according to the equation 2C4H10(g) + 13O2(g) → 8CO2(g) + 10H2O(l), ΔH°rxn= –5,314 kJ/mol
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

665 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.

2 C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂(g) → 8 CO₂(g) + 10 H₂O(l), ΔH°rxn= –5,314 kJ/mol

According to this equation, 5,314 kJ are released per 8 moles of CO₂. The moles produced when 1.00 × 10⁴ kJ are released are:

-1.00 × 10⁴ kJ × (8 mol CO₂/-5,314 kJ) = 15.1 mol CO₂

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 15.1 moles is:

15.1 mol × 44.01 g/mol = 665 g

Calculate the electrical energy per gram of anode material for the following reaction at 298 K:
solmaris [256]

43.8 kJ

<h3>Explanation</h3>

There are two electrodes in a voltaic cell. Which one is the anode?

The lithium atom used to have no oxygen atoms when it was on the reactant side. It gains two oxygen atoms after the reaction. It has gained more oxygen atoms than the manganese atom. Gaining oxygen is oxidation. As a result, lithium is being oxidized.

Oxidation takes place at the anode of a cell. Therefore, the anode of this cell is made of lithium.

Lithium has an atomic mass of 6.94. Each gram of Li would contain 1/6.94 = 0.144 moles of Li atoms. Each Li atom loses one electron in this cell. Therefore, the number of electron transferred, <em>n</em>, equals 0.144 moles for each gram of the anode.

Let w_\text{max} represents the electrical energy produced.

w_\text{max} = n \cdot F \cdot E_\text{cell}, where

  • <em>n</em> is the <em>number of moles</em> electrons transferred,
  • <em>F</em> is the Faraday's constant,
  • <em>E</em>_\text{cell} is the cell potential,

<em>n </em>= 0.144 mol, as shown above, and

<em>F </em>= 96.486 kJ / (\text{V} \cdot \text{mol} \; \text{e}^{-}).

Therefore,

w_\text{max} = n \cdot F \cdot E\\\phantom{w_\text{max}} = 0.144 \times 96.486 \times 3.15 \\\phantom{w_\text{max}} = 43.8 \; \text{kJ}.
