What is the difference between random decay and theoretical?

Chemistry
1 answer:
denis-greek [22]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Spontaneous and random. Decay is called spontaneous because the occur on their own and are unaffected by external factors like temperature, pressure, and many more. Decay is called random because we cannot determine the rate at which it decays but can only determine the probability of the decay.Oct 21, 2015

Which choice(s) correctly rank(s) the bonds in terms of increasing polarity?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

(II) only correctly rank the bonds in terms of increasing polarity.

Explanation:

Bond polarity is proportional to difference in electronegativity between bonded atoms.

Atoms    Electronegativity          Bond        Electronegativity difference

Cl                          3.0                       Cl-F                      1.0

Br                          2.8                       Br-Cl                     0.2

F                            4.0                       Cl-Cl                      0

H                            2.1                       H-C                       0.4

C                            2.5                       H-N                       0.9

N                             3.0                      H-O                       1.4

O                             3.5                      Br-F                       1.2

I                               2.7                      I-F                         1.3

Si                             1.9                      Cl-F                       1.0  

P                              2.2                      Si-Cl                      1.1

                                                          Si-P                        0.3

                                                          Si-C                        0.6

                                                           Si-F                        2.1

So, clearly, order of increasing polarity : O-H > N-H > C-H

So, (II) only correctly rank the bonds in terms of increasing polarity

As an EPA scientist studying catalytic converters and urban smog, you want to find Kc for the following reaction: 2NO2(g) ⇋ N2(g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Kc = 4.774 * 10¹³

Explanation:

the desired reaction is

2 NO₂(g) ⇋ N₂(g) + 2 O₂(g)

Kc =[N₂]*[O₂]² /[NO₂]²

Since

1/2 N₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g) ⇋ NO(g)

Kc₁= [NO]/(√[N₂]√[O₂]) →  Kc₁²= [NO]²/([N₂][O₂])

and

2 NO₂(g) ⇋ 2 NO(g) + O₂(g)

Kc₂= [NO]²*[O₂]/[NO₂]² →  1/Kc₂= [NO₂]²/([NO]²[O₂])

then

Kc₁²* (1/Kc₂) = [NO]²/([N₂]*[O₂]) *[NO₂]²/([NO]²[O₂])  = [NO₂]²/([N₂]*[O₂]²) = 1/Kc

Kc₁² /Kc₂ = 1/Kc

Kc= Kc₂/Kc₁² =1.1*10⁻⁵/(4.8*10⁻¹⁰)² = 4.774 * 10¹³
