How would adding the catalyst nitrogen monoxide (NO) affect this reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
RSB [31]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: A) NO increases the rate at which SO_3 molecules are formed.

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more reactant molecules can cross the energy barrier by undergoing collisions and convert to products.

2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)

Thus NO will increase the rate of reaction by lowering the activation energy and thus the colllisions among SO_2 and O_2 molecules will incraese which in turn will lead to formatioon of more SO_3 molecules.

Explain why copper 2 oxide is a base although it does not turn litmus paper to blue​
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Copper II oxide is a base but not an alkali. An alkali is a soluble base. Since Copper II oxide is not soluble in water then it is not an alkali.

Let us recall that the change of colour of litmus with an alkali requires the presence of water. In the absence of water, solid Copper II oxide does not turn red litmus paper blue.

The ability to turn red litmus paper blue is commonly observed with alkalis and Copper II oxide is not an alkali.

Also recall that since Copper II oxide is not soluble, hydroxide ions are absent hence Copper II oxide does not turn red litmus paper blue.

1. A gas has a volume of 140L at 37 ºC and 620 kpa pressure. Calculate its volume at STP.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

1. Volume as STP = 755 L

2. Outside temperature = 255 K

3. Percentage yield = 70.5%

Explanation:

1. At STP, pressure  = 101.3 kpa, temperature  = 0°C or 273.15 K

Using the general gas equation :

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1 = 620 kpa

V1 = 140 L

T1 = 37°C or (273.15 + 37) K = 310.15 K

P2 = 101.3 kpa

V2 = ?

T2 = 273.15 K

V2 = P1V1T2/P2T1

V2 = 620 × 140 × 273.15 / 101.3 × 310.15

V2 = 755 L

2. Using Charles' gas law:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1 = 2.5 L

T1 = 290 K

V2 = 2.2 L

T2 = ?

T2 = V2T1/VI

T2 = 2.2 × 290 / 2.5

T2 = 255 K

3. Equation of reaction : 2 Al + 3 CuSO4 ---> Al2 (SO4)3 + 3 Cu

From equation of the reaction,  2 moles of Al produces 3 moles of Cu

Molar mass of Al = 27 g; Molar mass of Cu = 63.5 g

2 moles of Al = 2 × 27 g = 54 g; 3 moles of Cu = 3× 63.5 = 190.5 g

54 g of Al produces 190.5 g of Cu

1.87 g of Al will produce 190.5/54 × 1.87 g of Cu = 6.60 g of Cu

Percentage yield = actual yield /theoretical yield × 100%

Percentage yield = 4.65/6.60 × 100%

Percentage yield = 70.5%

In general, what is the effect of increased temperature on the solubility of a gas?
Alecsey [184]
The physical explanation is that increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules. Hence, their random motion breaks more intermolecular bonds and the gas is less dissolved in the solvent. In contrast, solid solutes in water have increased solubility with increased temperatures.

What would be the greatest difference in using an open ceramic coffee mug rather than an insulated mug with a lid as a calorimet
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Hi. Increased evaporation would be the greatest difference.

Explanation:

Have you ever had a drink in a mug with a lid? When you would remove the lid, all of the liquid on the lid is the liquid that would evaporate if there was no lid.
