Explanation:
Because when you move the decimal point once, it it equal to 10 and to convert in the metric system, you must multiply or divide by 10. For example, when converting 4 centimeters to millimeters, you can multiply by 10 to get 40 millimeters or you can move the decimal point to the right and add another 0 to get 40.
Activation energy is defined as the least amount of energy that is needed to be available in a chemical system with potential reactants in order to result a chemical reaction. Therefore, the correct answer would be the first option: the heat released in a reaction.
To determine which order of the reaction it is, first we need to calculate the rate of change of moles.
the data is as follows
time 0 40 80 120 160
moles 0.100 0.067 0.045 0.030 0.020
Q1)
for the first 40 s change of moles ;
= -d[A] / t
= - (0.067-0.100)/40s
= 8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
for the next 40 s
= -(0.045-0.067)/40
= 5.5 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
the 40 s after that
= -(0.030-0.045)/40 s
= 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s
k - rate constant
and A is the only reactant that affects the rate of the reaction
rate = k [A]ᵇ
8.25 × 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.100 mol]ᵇ ----1
5.5 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.067 mol]ᵇ -----2
divide the 2nd equation by the 1st equation
1.5 = [1.49]ᵇ
b is almost equal to 1
Therefore this is a first order reaction
Q2)
to find out the rate constant(k), we have to first state the equation for a first order reaction.
rate = k[A]ᵇ
As A is the only reactant thats considered for the rate equation.
Since this is a first order reaction,
b = 1
therefore the reaction is
rate = k[A]
substituting the values,
8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s = k [0.100 mol]
k = 8.25 x 10⁻⁴ mol/s /0.100mol
= 8.25 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹
If you are referring to to the molecule, CO, it contains two atoms , C1+O1
Answer:
This question is incomplete, here's the complete question:
<em><u>"Suppose 0.0842g of potassium sulfate is dissolved in 50.mL of a 52.0mM aqueous solution of sodium chromate. Calculate the final molarity of potassium cation in the solution. You can assume the volume of the solution doesn't change when the potassium sulfate is dissolved in it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits."</u></em>
Explanation:
Reaction :-
K2SO4 + Na2CrO4 ------> K2CrO4 + Na2SO4
Mass of K2SO4 = 0.0842 g, Molar mass of K2SO4 = 174.26 g/mol
Number of moles of K2SO4 = 0.0842 g / 174.26 g/mol = 0.000483 mol
Concentration of Na2CrO4 = 52.0 mM = 52.0 * 10^-3 M = 0.052 mol/L
Volume of Na2CrO4 solution = 50.0 ml = 50 L / 1000 = 0.05 L
Number of moles of Na2CrO4 = 0.05 L * 0.052 mol/L = 0.0026 mol
Since number of moles of K2SO4 is smaller than number of moles Na2CrO4, so 0.000483 mol of K2SO4 will react with 0.000483 mol of Na2CrO4 will produce 0.000483 mol of K2CrO4.
0.000483 mol of K2CrO4 will dissociate into 2* 0.000483 mol of K^+
Final concentration of potassium cation
= (2*0.000483 mol) / 0.05 L = 0.02 mol/L = 0.02 M
