Why did we have you determine the reaction rate using reactant consumed per unit of time instead of product formed per unit of t

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:Rate of reaction can be determined in terms of concentration of reactants consumed or concentration of product formed per unit time

Explanation: For the reaction below

A ===>B

The reactant is A while the product given is B.

Reaction rate = Δ[B]/Δt = -Δ[A]/Δt

The concentration of A will decrease with time while the concentration of B will increases with time.

The negative sign in -Δ[A]/Δt is to convert the expression to positive since the change will always be negative (decreases)

A mouse is placed in a sealed chamber with air at 769.0 torr. This chamber is equipped with enough solid KOH to absorb any CO2 a

svlad2 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Initial pressure of air = 769.0 torr

Final pressure of air = 717.1 torr

Pressure of oxygen = Pressure decreased = Initial pressure - Final pressure = (769.0 - 717.1) torr = 51.9 torr

To calculate the amount of oxygen gas consumed, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 51.9 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 2.20 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 292 K

R = Gas constant = $62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of oxygen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$51.9torr\times 2.20L=n\times 62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 292K\\\\n=\frac{51.9\times 2.20}{62.364\times 292}=0.0063mol$

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of oxygen gas = 0.0063 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0063mol=\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen gas}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of oxygen gas}=(0.0063mol\times 32g/mol)=0.202g$

Hence, the amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

Alum is a compound used in a variety of applications including cosmetics, water purification, and as a food additive. It can be

mylen [45]

yield = 52.23 %

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

2 Al (s) + 2 KOH (aq) + 4 H₂SO₄ (aq) + 10 H₂O → 2 KAl(SO₄)₂·12 (H₂O) (s) + 3 H₂ (g)

mass of aluminium = mass of bottle with aluminium pieces - bottle mass

mass of aluminium = 10.8955 - 9.8981 = 0.9974 g

mass of alum = mass of bottle with final product - bottle mass

mass of alum = 19.0414 - 9.8981 = 9.1433 g

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of aluminium = 0.9974 / 27 = 0.03694 moles

number of moles of alum (practical) = 9.1433 / 474 = 0.01929 moles

To calculate the theoretical quantity of alum that should be obtained from 0.03694 moles of aluminium we devise the following reasoning:

if 2 moles of aluminium produce 2 moles of alum

then 0.03694 moles of aluminium produce X moles of alum

X = (0.03694 × 2) / 2 = 0.03694 moles of alum (theoretical)

yield = (practical quantity / theoretical quantity) × 100

yield = (0.01929 / 0.03694) × 100

yield = 52.23 %

Which of the following does NOT involve a change of state? a. pouring water into a vacuum-insulated bottle b. sublimation of dry

Elena L [17]

<h2> The correct option is (a).</h2>

Explanation:

There is no change of state in pouring water into a vacuum insulated bottle as the vacuum created inside the bottle only reduces the time limit for the transfer of heat by conduction and convection.
It helps the content filled in the bottle to be hot and cool for a longer time.

Hence, option (a) is correct.

Rest of the options (b), (c), (d), (e) is not correct because of the following reasons:

In the sublimation of dry ice, the dry ice (solid-state) is changed to the vapour form.
In the freezing of water, the liquid state is changed to solid-state.
During the vaporization of alcohol, the liquid state is changed to the vapour form.
During the melting of ice, the solid-state is changed to the liquid state.
