At 25 oC, hydrogen iodide breaks down very slowly to hydrogen gas and iodine vapor with a rate constant of 2.4 x 10-21L/mol.s. I

f 0.0100 mol of HI(g) is placed into a 1.0 L container at 25 oC, how long will it take for the concentration of HI to reach 0.00900 mol/L?

Answer:

\large \boxed{4.6 \times 10^{21}\text{ s}}

Explanation:

Whenever a question asks you, "What is the concentration after a given time?" or something like that, you must use the appropriate integrated rate law expression.

The reaction is 2nd order, because the units of k are L·mol⁻¹s⁻¹.

The integrated rate law for a second-order reaction is  

\dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}} =\dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}_{0}}+ kt

Data:

   k = 2.4 × 10⁻²¹ L·mol⁻¹s⁻¹

[A]₀ = 0.0100     mol·L⁻¹

[A] = 0.009 00 mol·L⁻¹

Calculation :

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}} & = & \dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}_{0}}+ kt\\\\\dfrac{1}{0.00900 }& = & \dfrac{1}{0.0100} + 2.4 \times 10^{-21} \, t\\\\111.1&=& 100.0 + 2.4 \times 10^{-21} \, t\\\\11.1& = & 2.4 \times 10^{-21} \, t\\t & = & \dfrac{11.1}{ 2.4 \times 10^{-21}}\\\\& = & \mathbf{4.6 \times 10^{21}}\textbf{ s}\\\end{array}\\\text{It will take $\large \boxed{\mathbf{4.6 \times 10^{21}}\textbf{ s}}$ for the HI to decompose}

Give two reasons why the flame test is sometimes invalid
zlopas [31]
The two reason behind the invalidity of flame test are false positive and false negative.
while performing the flame test you must have to be accurate otherwise you will get false results may be positive for some element or may be negative in case the element is present. The main reason to get the false positive and false negative is the presence and contamination of sodium.

Where is almost all the mass of an atom​
VashaNatasha [74]
The nucleus!! This is made up of protons and neutrons that each weigh about 1 amu.

Electrons are not found in the nucleus and weigh almost nothing so chemistry in school doesn’t bother with them :)

How might you explain the difference between the pH values of the 0.01 M HCl (pH = 1.1) and the 0.01 M HC2H3O2 (pH = 3.6)?
JulsSmile [24]
The difference is due to the degree of dissociation of the substances. HCl dissociates completely into ions when added to water, while this is not the case for HC₂H₃O₂; therefore, HCl has a lower pH.
