Answer:

D. Lowering activation energy for the reaction

Explanation:

Catalysts increase the rate of a reaction without being used up. They do this by lowering the activation energy needed. With a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases.

Hope this helped :)

If you added 45,000 calories to water that was at 25 degrees C, and the ending temperature was 35 degrees C, how much water did

user100 [1]

Answer:

4.5 L water we have in litres (L).

Explanation:

$Q=m\times c \times \Delta T$

where

$\Delta T$ = Final T - Initial T

Q is the heat energy in calories

c is the specific heat capacity (for water 1.0 cal/(g℃))

m is the mass of water

Plugging in the values

$\\$45000 \mathrm{cal}=m \times 1.0 \frac{\mathrm{cal}}{\mathrm{g}^{\circ} \mathrm{C}} \times\left(35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}-25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$\\\\$45000 \mathrm{cal}=m \times 1.0 \frac{\mathrm{cal}}{\mathrm{g}^{\circ} \mathrm{C}} \times 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$\\\\$m=\frac{45000 \mathrm{cal}}{1.0 \frac{\mathrm{cal}}{\mathrm{g}^{\circ} \mathrm{C}} \times 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}$\\\\$m=4500 \mathrm{g}$\\\\Density of water $=\frac{\text { mass }}{\text { volume }}$$

So,

Volume of water = mass/density

$\\\\=\frac{4500 \mathrm{g}}{\frac{1.09}{\mathrm{mL}}}=4500 \mathrm{mL}$$$

What would you need to do to calculate the molality of 10 g of NaCl in 2 kg of

jasenka [17]

Answer:

O B. Convert the 10 g of NaCl to moles of NaCl.

Explanation:

The formula for finding the molality is m=moles of solute/kg of solvent. The solute for this question is NaCl and the solvent is water.

(10g NaCl)(1 mol NaCl/58.44g NaCl)=0.1711 mol NaCl

58.44 is the molar mass of NaCl

m=0.1711 mol NaCl/2 kg H2O

m=0.085557837

A substance has a solubility of 350 ppm.how many grams of the substance are present in 1.0l of a saturated solution

sergeinik [125]

Since the given solubility is 350 ppm, convert it first with fraction of solubility. by dividing the solubility with 10^6
S = 350 / 10^6
s = 3.5 x 10^-4
the multiply it to the total solution to calculate the amount of substance present
m = ( 3.5 x 10^-4 ) ( 1.01 )
m = 3.535 x 10^-4 g of the substance present
