What is the agent that causes frost wedging?

Chemistry
1 answer:
LuckyWell [14K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Freeze wedging is caused by the repeated freeze-thaw. Frost wedging occurs as the result of 9% expansion of water when it is converted to ice. Cracks filled with water are forced further apart when it freezes.

The maximum amount of product that can be produced from a given amount of reactant is known as ______________________.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Theoretical yield

Explanation:

Theoretical yield is the quantity of a product obtain considering that all the reactants will be converted into products. The theoretical yield considers that the reaction is 100% effective, but this is not true most of the chemical reactions have a yield of 80 % or lower.

How many atoms are in 1.75 mol CHCL3
vaieri [72.5K]

1 mol = 6.022 x 10²³ atoms

In order to find how many atoms, dimly multiply the amount of moles you have by 6.022 x 10²³ or Avogadro's number.

So you have 1.75 mol CHC1₃ x (6.022x10²³) = 1.05385 x 10²⁴ atoms of CHCl₃

But now you have to round because of the rules of significant figures so you get 1.05 x 10²⁴ atoms of CHCl₃

reaction is found to have a rate constant of 12.5 s-1 at 25.0 Celsius. When you heat the reaction up by ten degrees Celsius, the
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer : The activation energy for the reaction is, 52.9 kJ/mol

Explanation :

According to the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

or,

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

T_1 = initial temperature = 25.0^oC=273+25.0=298.0K

T_2 = final temperature = 25.0^oC+10=35.0^oC=273+35.0=308.0K

K_1 = rate constant at 25.0^oC = 12.5s^{-1}

K_2 = rate constant at 35.0^oC = 2\times K_1=2\times 12.5s^{-1}=25.0s^{-1}

Ea = activation energy for the reaction = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

\log (\frac{25.0s^{-1}}{12.5s^{-1}})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{298.0K}-\frac{1}{308.0K}]

Ea=52903.05J/mole=52.9kJ/mol

Therefore, the activation energy for the reaction is, 52.9 kJ/mol
