Answer:
A. 3.2grams
Explanation:
First we need to get the chemical equation for this reaction:
CO + H₂ → CH₃OH
We then need to balance the equation:
CO + <u>2</u>H₂ → CH₃OH
Our next step is to first convert our given into moles. We do this by figuring out first how many grams of each substance there are in 1 mole by adding up the atomic mass of each element in each substance.
Carbon(1) Oxygen(1)
CO = 12.011(1) + 15.999(1) = 28.01 g/mole
Hydrogen(2)
H₂ = 1.008(2) = 2.016g/mole
We can then use this to determine how many moles of each reactant we have given the mass.
So here we have our new given:
0.1 moles of CO
0.496 moles of H₂
We then need to determine how much product we produce with our given.
According to our chemical equation we can assume that:
For every 1 mole of CO we can produce 1 mole of CH₃OH
Fore every 2 moles of H₂ we can produce 1 mole of CH₃OH
Using this ratio we can determine how much product each reactant will produce by using the ratios:
Now notice that they are not equal. The reactant that produces the least amount of product will be our limiting reactant. The limiting reactant determines the amount of product that is produced, because once it is completely used up, the reaction stops. So in this case, the amount of CH₃OH that is produced is 0.10 moles.
Now we need to figure out how many this is in grams. To do that we need to find out how many grams of CH₃OH there are in 1 mole of CH₃OH.
Carbon (1) Hydrogen(4) Oxygen(1)
CH₃OH = 12.001(1) + 1.008(4) + 15.999(1)
= 12.001 + 4.032 + 15.999 = 32.032g/mole
We then use this for converting:
So the reaction will produce 3.2032g of CH₃OH or 3.2g of CH₃OH
Answer :
The order of reaction is, 0 (zero order reaction).
The value of rate constant is,
Explanation :
Half life : It is defined as the time in which the concentration of a reactant is reduced to half of its original value.
The general expression of half-life for nth order is:
or,
or,
.............(1)
where,
= half-life of the reaction
n = order of reaction
[A] = concentration
As we are given:
Initial concentration of A = 0.229 M
Final concentration of A = 0.639 M
Initial half-life of the reaction = 29.5 s
Final half-life of the reaction = 82.3 s
Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:
Thus, the order of reaction is, 0 (zero order reaction).
Now we have to determine the rate constant.
To calculate the rate constant for zero order the expression will be:
When,
= 29.5 s
= 0.229 M
Thus, the value of rate constant is,
