Answer:

mass is the amount of substance contained in matter while volume is the space occupied by matter

in other words , mass talks about how heavy a body is while volume deals with the space covered by a 3- dimensional body. note : A 2- dimensional body can't occupy volume

Consider the reaction

SOVA2 [1]

Answer :

(a) The average rate will be:

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=9.36\times 10^{-5}M/s$

(b) The average rate will be:

$\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=1.87\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

The given rate of reaction is,

$5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)\rightarrow 3Br_2(aq)+3H_2O(l)$

The expression for rate of reaction :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }Br^-=-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }BrO_3^-=-\frac{d[BrO_3^-]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }H^+=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }Br_2=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}$

Thus, the rate of reaction will be:

$\text{Rate of reaction}=-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=-\frac{d[BrO_3^-]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}$

Part (a) :

Given:

$\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

As,

$-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

and,

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}$

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\times 1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=9.36\times 10^{-5}M/s$

Part (b) :

Given:

$\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

As,

$-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}$

and,

$-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}$

$\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=\frac{6}{5}\times 1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

$\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=1.87\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Which statement describes the relationship between the scientific method in the scientific process

Oksana_A [137]

Answer: The methodology is the science that addresses these issues.

Explanation:

There are several steps to exploring to obtain valid scientific results. The scientific method is one of those elements. The scientific method involves specific steps that need to be taken to begin the scientific process adequately. By the scientific method, we also mean the hypothesis or assumption that needs to be put in the paper to try to defend it later and in fact. By scientific process, we suggest the following steps we take after evaluating a hypothesis. The scientific method is the very making of a particular scientific work, that is, its central part.
