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

Which element in each of the following sets would you expect to have the lowest IE₃?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

(a) AL

(b) Sc

(c)Al

Explanation:

Ionization Energy is the energy required to remove electrons from the outer most orbitals of atom.

The higher the electron is on energy level the farther its from nucleus and more loosely bonded thus need lesser energy.

By looking at electron configuration we can figure out which electron will need more energy.

<h3>(a)Na, Mg, Al</h3>

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s², 3d¹

Na₁₁ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s¹

Mg₁₂ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

Al₁₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 2p¹

Al will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

<h3>(b) K, Ca, Sc</h3>

K₁₉⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s²

Ca₂₀⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s²

Sc₂₁⇒1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶,4s², 3d¹

Sc will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

<h3>(c) Li, Al, B</h3>

Li₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s¹

Al₁₃ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 2p¹

B₅ ⇒ 1s², 2s², 2p¹

Al will have lowest IE₃ as its third electron will be in highest energy level and more loosely bonded to nucleus.

What is the concentration, in m/v percent, of a solution prepared from 50 g NaCl and 2.5 L of solution?
Serjik [45]
When we convert the given mass in grams and volume in liters to m/v percent, we recall that m/v percent is expressed as grams/100 milliliters. In this case the expression becomes (50 grams/ 2500 L)*(0.1L/100ml), that is equal to 0.002 grams/ 100 mL. Hence the the concentration is equal to 0.2 m/v percent.

Is 2OH−+Ca2+−&gt;2Ca(OH)2 balanced
wariber [46]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No.  There is 1 atom of Ca on the left and 2 Ca's on the right  and 2 OH's on the left and 4 on the right.

The balanced equation is:

4OH-  +  2Ca2+ ---->  2Ca(OH)2.

Match the following chemical reactions:
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Synthesis - 4

reversible- 2

exchange- 1

decomposition-3

Explanation:

In synthesis reaction two or more components combines to form a single product. example 2H2+O2⇒2H2O

In reversible reaction two reactants combine to form two products . The products then reacts and forms back the reactants. example N2 +3H2 ⇒2NH3

In exchange reaction there is an alternation of ions of reactants to form new products. AB+CD ⇒AC + BD

In decomposition reaction, molecules of a compound break down by the action of heat or light or catalyst. example CaCO3 ⇒CaO +CO2
