Answer : The value of rate constant is, 0.0327s^{-1}

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = ?

t = time passed by the sample  = 4.84 s

a = initial concentration = 4.17 M

a - x = concentration after time 4.84 s = 3.56 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

k=\frac{2.303}{4.84}\log\frac{4.17}{3.56}

k=0.0327s^{-1}

Therefore, the value of rate constant is, 0.0327s^{-1}

If an atom has 30 electrons and 35 neutrons, what is its approximate atomic mass? what is the name of this element?
Murljashka [212]
30 electrons = atomic number
Look at your periodic table. You will see zinc has a atomic number (the top number) of 30.

When you add 30 and 35 you get 65. The is the atoms ATOMIC MASS. So looking at zinc on the periodic table, look at its bottom number, which is its atomic mass. It will be 65.

This means the name of the element is ZINC.

Hope this helped!

For each of the following sets of elements, circle the element expected to be most electronegative and draw a box which is expec
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: The element expected to be most electronegative is Ca.

The element expected to be least electronegative is K.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.

Down the group:

The size of an atom increases as we move down the group because a new shell is added and electron gets added up.

As, the size of an element increases, the valence electrons gets away from the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons decreases

Hence, electronegativity decreases moving from top to bottom down a group

Across a period:

The size of an atom decreases as we move across the period because the electrons get added to the same shell and the nuclear charge keeps on increasing. Thus the electrons get more tightly held by the nucleus.

As, the size of an element decreases, the valence electrons come near to the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons increases.

Hence, electronegativity increases moving across left to right in a period.

Thus as K, Sc and Ca are arranged across a period, the electronegativity order is K< Sc < Ca.

The average mass of a kernel of popcorn is 0.125 g if one pound equals 16 oz, and 1 oz equals 28.3 g then how many kernels of po
Nikitich [7]
I won't give the answer, but here's the process: You have the weight of the object (0.500 lbs), and you want to convert that into the number of kernels. You are given the fact that 1 pound = 16 oz, and 1 oz=28.3 grams. So it should be apparent that you need to convert pounds to ounces first and then convert ounces to grams. Now that you the grams, you can easily figure out how many kernels there are because .125 grams equals the weight of one kernel.

The pH of a solution can be calculated using which formula?
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The formula for calculating pH is pH=−log[H_3O+ ]

pH is the negative logarithm (to base 10) of hydronium ion concentration

The pH Formula can also be expressed as

PH= - log[H+ ]
