Answer:
(a) -0.00017 M/s;
(b) 0.00034 M/s
Explanation:
(a) Rate of a reaction is defined as change in molarity in a unit time, that is:
Given the following reaction:
We may write the rate expression in terms of reactants firstly. Since reactants are decreasing in molarity, we're adding a negative sign. Similarly, if we wish to look at the overall reaction rate, we need to divide by stoichiometric coefficients:
Reaction rate is also equal to the rate of formation of products divided by their coefficients:
Let's find the rate of disappearance of the reactant firstly. This would be found dividing the change in molarity by the change in time:
(b) Using the relationship derived previously, we know that:
Rate of appearance of nitrogen dioxide is given by:
Which is obtained from the equation:
If we multiply both sides by 4, that is:
This yields:
[tex]r_{NO_2} = \frac{\Delta [NO_2]}{\Delta t} = -2\frac{\Delta [N_2O_5]}{ \Delta t} = -2\cdot (-0.00017 M/s) = 0.00034 M/s[tex]
Water will have higher surface tension.
Explanation:
There are strong hydrogen bonds and strong intermolecular forces present in water. Water is polar in nature that is why surface tension is present in it. The force of attraction between the particles is the main factor for surface tension.
The cohesion force in the liquid causes surface tension.
Since the other substance is acetone which does not form strong intermolecular forces hence it has low value of surface tension. They have low cohesive forces and get stick to the surface and are spilled instead of attaining minimal volume.

The Role of Science in Society. ... Scientists attempt to achieve their goals by either providing information (i.e., educating policy makers about science) or by championing particular policy outcomes (e.g., by using persuasive arguments, political pressure, or positive incentives to achieve particular policy goals).
