Explain the relationship between the roman numeral and the charge used in naming ionic compounds.

1 answer:

3 0

The Roman numerals are used to show the oxidation number of some transition metals because some elements have more than one possible oxidation state. So basically it's there to indicate the charge of the element.

The gas-phase reaction follows an elementary rate law and is to be carried out first in a PFR and then in a separate experiment

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The activation energy is $=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Explanation:

The gas phase reaction is as follows.

$A \rightarrow B+C$

The rate law of the reaction is as follows.

$-r_{A}=kC_{A}$

The reaction is carried out first in the plug flow reactor with feed as pure reactant.

From the given,

Volume "V" = $10dm^{3}$

Temperature "T" = 300 K

Volumetric flow rate of the reaction $v_{o}=5dm^{3}s$

Conversion of the reaction "X" = 0.8

The rate constant of the reaction can be calculate by the following formua.

$V= \frac{v_{0}}{k}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]$

Rearrange the formula is as follows.

$k= \frac{v_{0}}{V}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]............(1)$

The feed has Pure A, mole fraction of A in feed $y_{A_{o}}$ is 1.

$\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta$

$\delta$ = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacte.

$=1(2-1)=1$

Substitute the all given values in equation (1)

$k=\frac{5m^{3}/s}{10dm^{3}}[(1+1)ln \frac{1}{1-0.8}-1 \times 0.8] = 1.2s^{-1}$

Therefore, the rate constant in case of the plug flow reacor at 300K is $1.2s^{-1}$

The rate constant in case of the CSTR can be calculated by using the formula.

$\frac{V}{v_{0}}= \frac{X(1+\epsilon X)}{k(1-X)}.............(2)$

The feed has 50% A and 50% inerts.

Hence, the mole fraction of A in feed $y_{A_{o}}$ is 0.5

$\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta$

$\delta$ = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacted.

$=0.5(2-1)=0.5$

Substitute the all values in formula (2)

$\frac{10dm^{3}}{5dm^{3}}=\frac{0.8(1+0.5(0.8))}{k(1-0.8)}=2.8s^{-1}$

Therefore, the rate constant in case of CSTR comes out to be $2.8s^{-1}$

The activation energy of the reaction can be calculated by using formula

$k(T_{2})=k(T_{1})exp[\frac{E}{R}(\frac{1}{T_{1}}-\frac{1}{T_{2}})]$

In the above reaction rate constant at the two different temperatures.

Rearrange the above formula is as follows.

$E= R \times(\frac{T_{1}T_{2}}{T_{1}-T_{2}})ln\frac{k(T_{2})}{k(T_{1})}$

Substitute the all values.

$=1.987cal/molK(\frac{300K \times320K}{320K \times300K})ln \frac{2.8}{1.2}=8.081 \times10^{3}cal\,mol^{-1}$

$=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Therefore, the activation energy is $=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Which is made by weathering? A. sediments B. minerals C. ash D. magma

rusak2 [61]

The answer is A cause the water breaks down the rocks into small pieces which are called sediments. These things later on turn into rocks with pressure and heat
