QveST [7]2 years ago

The catalyst is defined as a chemical substance that helps increase the rate of the chemical reaction without being changed or affected by the reaction itself (the catalyst is not involved in the reaction, it only aids with increasing its speed).

Based on the above definition, adding a catalyst to the reaction:
H2 + I2 .........> 2HI
will increase the rate of the reaction. This means that the reaction will proceed faster and the product (HI) will be formed faster that the case where the catalyst is not added.

Hope this helps :)

A catalyst is a chemical substance that hastens the chemical reaction. This does not participates in the creating the product(s) but allows it to be formed easily. With this, it is now known that the rate of the reaction becomes relatively higher compared to the uncatalyzed reactions.

Therefore, the answer to this item is the rate of the reaction becomes faster.

Suppose that a sample of gas occupies 187 mL
drek231 [11]

Answer:

V2 = 90.7 mL

Explanation:

pressure and volume are inversely proportional, if the pressure is increased, the volume will decrease. In an isothermal process:

p1V1 = p2V2

V2 = p1V1/p2 = (277 torr×187 mL)/571 torr

V2 = 90.7 mL

Analysis of a gaseous chlorofluorocarbon, CClxFy, shows that it contains 11.79% C and 69.57% Cl. In another experiment, you find
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_{4}F_2

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 11.79

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

<u>% moles of C = 11.79 / 12.0107 = 0.9816</u>

% of Cl = 69.57

Molar mass of Cl = 35.453 g/mol

<u>% moles of Cl = 69.57 / 35.453 = 1.9623</u>

Given that the gaseous chlorofluorocarbon only contains chlorine, flourine and carbon. So,

% of F = 100% - % of C - % of C = 100 - 11.79 - 69.57 = 18.64

Molar mass of F = 18.998 g/mol

<u>% moles of F = 18.64 / 18.998 = 0.9812</u>

Taking the simplest ratio for C, Cl and F as:

0.9816 : 1.9623 : 0.9812

= 1 : 2 : 1

The empirical formula is = CCl_2F

Also, Given that:

Pressure = 21.3 mm Hg

Also, P (mm Hg) = P (atm) / 760

Pressure = 21.3 / 760 = 0.02803 atm

Temperature = 25 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (25 + 273.15) K = 298.15 K  

Volume = 458 mL  = 0.458 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.02803 atm × 0.458 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 298.15 K  

⇒n = 0.00052445 moles

Given that :  

Amount  = 0.107 g  

Molar mass = ?

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

0.00052445= \frac{0.107\ g}{Molar\ mass}

Molar\ mass= 204.0233\ g/mol

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 1×12.0107 + 2×35.453 + 1×18.998 = 101.9147 g/mol

Molar mass = 204.0233 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

204.0233 = n × 101.9147

⇒ n = 2

<u>The molecular formula = C_2Cl_{4}F_2</u>

How does the concentration of reactants affect the rate <br>of Chemical reaction? explain in short​
Neporo4naja [7]
Higher concentration of reactants equals faster rate of reaction. Reactions occur when particles collide effectively, and by increasing the concentration of reactants, you increase the number of effective collisions, thereby making the reaction occur faster.

If the pressure changes from 1 atm to 3 atm, what does the volume of 30 L change to
DiKsa [7]

Answer: 10L

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial pressure P1 = 1 atm

New pressure P2 = 3 atm

Initial volume V2 = 30 L

New volume V2 = ?

Since pressure and volume are involved, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

1 atm x 30L = 3 atm x V2

30 atm L = 3 atm x V2

V2 = (30 atm L / 3 atm)

V2 = 10L

Thus, volume changed to 10 liters
