What is k in the rate law equation?

Chemistry
2 answers:
REY [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B. A rate constant

Explanation:

The mathematical expression of rate law is given below,

Rate = K[A]m[B]n

This rate law show the relationship between the rate of chemical reaction and concentration of reactants.

In given equation [A] and [B] are molar concentration of reactants while K represent rate constant.

The value of K is specific for particular reaction at particular temperature,

m and n are represent exponents and determine experimentally. The value of K is not depend upon the concentrations of reactant but depend upon the surface area and temperature

When the concentration of A in the reaction A ..... B was changed from 1.20 M to 0.60 M, the half-life increased from 2.0 min to
Reika [66]

Answer:

2

0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

Explanation:

Half-life

{t_{1/2}}A=2\ \text{min}

{t_{1/2}}B=4\ \text{min}

Concentration

{[A]_0}_A=1.2\ \text{M}

{[A]_0}_B=0.6\ \text{M}

We have the relation

t_{1/2}\propto \dfrac{1}{[A]_0^{n-1}}

So

\dfrac{{t_{1/2}}_A}{{t_{1/2}}_B}=\left(\dfrac{{[A]_0}_B}{{[A]_0}_A}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{4}=\left(\dfrac{0.6}{1.2}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}

Comparing the exponents we get

1=n-1\\\Rightarrow n=2

The order of the reaction is 2.

t_{1/2}=\dfrac{1}{k[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{t_{1/2}[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2\times 1.2^{2-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

The rate constant is 0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

How do CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword as CFC's were made for the advantages but soon or later it came as a disadvantage for environment.

CFC's was discovered with many advantages such as they are stable, non-corrosive, and replacement of harmful ammonia used in refrigerators  and air conditioning systems. But soon it is also discovered that CFC's are destroying  the upper atmosphere layer called ozone, which is a very big disadvantage for us. CFCs are major contributor  to global warming after carbon dioxide.

Hence, it proves that CFC’s shows how technological advancement can be “double-edged” sword.

A container holds 40.0 mL of nitrogen at 30° C and at a constant pressure.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 46.60 mL.

Explanation:

To find the volume of the gas at its new increased temperature we need to use Charl Law that shows the direct relationship between Volume and Temperature while Pressure remains constant.

V1 = 40 ml

T1  = 30 degree C + 273 = 303 K

V2  = ?

T2  = 80 degree C + 273 = 353 K

Charl Equation is:

V 1/T 1  =  V 2/ T 2

(V1) * (T2)/ T1= V2

placing value:

40*353/303 = V2

= 14120/303

Vf = 46.60 mL

Decide whether a chemical reaction happens in either of the following situations. If a reaction does happen, write the chemical
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

1) Yes

2) No

Explanation:

A strip of solid magnesium metal is put into a beaker of 0.053M ZnSO4 solution-YES

A chemical reaction occurs

Mg(s) + ZnSO4(aq) ----------> MgSO4(aq) +Zn(s)

This reaction is possible because magnesium is far higher than zinc in the activity series of metals hence magnesium can displace zinc from a solution of a zinc salt.

A strip of solid zinc metal is put into a beaker of 0.058M MgBr2 solution. NO

A chemical reaction does not occur because magnesium is higher than zinc in the activity series hence zinc cannot displace magnesium from a solution of its salt.
