Ethyl chloride vapor decomposes by the first-order reaction:

Chemistry

ExtremeBDS [4]2 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

(a)  The given data is as follows.

            Frequency factor A = 1.60 \times 10^{14} s^{-1}

           Activation energy (E_{a}) = 249 kJ/mol

           Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

            Temperature (T) = 876 K

Hence, calculate the specific rate constant as follows.

                  K = Ae^{\frac{-E_{a}}{RT}}

                      = 1.60 \times 10^{14} s^{-1} e^{\frac{249000 J/mol}{8.314 J/mol K \times 876 K}}

                      = 1.60 \times 10^{14} s^{-1} \times 1.034

                      = 1.128 \times 10^{29}

Hence, the value of specific rate constant K is 1.6544 \times 10^{14}.

(b)  It is given that time is 20 minutes. As there are 60 seconds present in 1 min. Therefore, seconds present in 20 minutes are as follows.

            20 min \times \frac{60 sec}{1 min}

            = 1200 sec

Hence, for the first order reaction the fraction remaining is as follows.

                \frac{C}{C_{o}} = e^{-kt}

                              = e^{-1.6544 \times 10^{14} \times 1200 sec}

                              = 0

Hence, fraction decomposed = 1 - 0 = 1

Therefore, the fraction of the ethyl chloride that decomposes in 20 minutes at this temperature is 1.

A metal pellet with a mass of 100.0 g, originally at 116°C, is dropped into a cup of water, initially at
Alina [70]

Answer:

C, 42g

Explanation:

In thermal equilibrium, both bodies (metal pellet and water) both have the same final temperature (46.3°C).

Assuming no heat is lost to surroundings,

the energy lost from metal pellet = energy gained for water

Since E = mc∆T

(energy = mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change)

mc∆T (metal pellet) = mc∆T (water)

100 x 0.568 x (116-46.3) = m 4.184 (46.3 - 23.8)

3958.96 = 94.14m

m = 42g

The cylinder of aluminum in class was approximately 13mm in circumference and 42mm in length. What would be it's approximate mas
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Mass, m = 1.51 grams

Explanation:

It is given that,

The circumference of Aluminium cylinder, C = 13 mm = 1.3 cm

Length of the cylinder, h = 4.2 cm

We know that the density of the Aluminium is 2.7 g/cm³

Circumference, C = 2πr

r=\dfrac{C}{2\pi}\\\\r=\dfrac{1.3}{2\pi}\\\\r=0.206\ cm

Density is equal to mass per unit volume.

d=\dfrac{m}{V}

m is mass of the cylinder

V is the volume of the cylinder

V=\pi r^2h\\\\V=\dfrac{22}{7}\times0.206^2\times 4.2\\\\V=0.5601\ cm^3

So,

m=d\times V\\\\m=2.7\times 0.5601\\\\m=1.51\ g

So, the mass of the cylinder is 1.51 grams.

This is a bit long right now.

(n l m s) these are the numbers.

n=2, second orbital level.
l is the type of orbit: l=1 elongated, l=0 spherical
m=0, magnetic number: 0
s=spin, both have spin positive

You need still to round it up. Srry!
