Please mark me brainliest. the answer is

Explanation:

The problem is that the desalination of water requires a lot of energy. Salt dissolves very easily in water, forming strong chemical bonds, and those bonds are difficult to break. Energy and the technology to desalinate water are both expensive, and this means that desalinating water can be pretty costly.

(will give brainliest) show your work. How many grams of Copper(I) nitrate, CuNO3 are required to produce 88.0 grams of aluminum

ValentinkaMS [17]

Based on the stoichiometry of the reaction, 156.114 g of CuNO3 are required to produce 88.0 grams of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3.

<h3>What is stoichiometry of a reaction?</h3>

The stoichiometry of a reaction is the molar ratio in which reactants combine to form products.

The stoichiometry of the reaction shows that 6 moles of copper (i) nitrate produces 2 moles of aluminium nitrate.

molar mass of Copper(I) nitrate, CuNO3 = 126 g

molar mass of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3 = 213 g

88.0 g of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3 = 88.0/213 moles = 0.413 moles

0.413 moles of Al(NO3)3 will be produced by 0.413 ×6/3 = 1.239 moles of CuNO3

Mass of 1.239 moles of CuNO3 = 1.239 × 126 = 156.114 g of CuNO3

Therefore, 156.114 g of CuNO3 are required to produce 88.0 grams of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3.

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

The frequency factors for these two reactions are very close to each other in value. Assuming that they are the same, compute the ratio of the reaction rate constants for these two reactions at 25°C.

$\frac{K_1}{K_2}=?$

Activation energy of the reaction 1 , $Ea_1$ = 14.0 kJ/mol

Activation energy of the reaction 2, $Ea_1$ = 11.9 kJ/mol

Answer:

0.4284 is the ratio of the rate constants.

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius equation,

$K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}$

The expression used with catalyst and without catalyst is,

$\frac{K_2}{K_1}=\frac{A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_2}{RT}}}{A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_1}{RT}}}$

$\frac{K_2}{K_1}=e^{\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}}$

where,

$K_2$ = rate constant reaction -1

$K_1$ = rate constant reaction -2

Activation energy of the reaction 1 , $Ea_1$ = 14.0 kJ/mol = 14,000 J

Activation energy of the reaction 2, $Ea_1$ = 11.9 kJ/mol = 11,900 J

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/ mol K

T = temperature = $25^oC=273+25=298 K$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$\frac{K_1}{K_2}=e^{\frac{11,900- 14,000Jl}{8.314 J/mol K\times 298 K}}=2.3340$

0.4284 is the ratio of the rate constants.
