hich of the following changes always leads to an increase in the rate constant for a reaction: Decreasing the temperature Decrea
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Only one—(i), or (ii), or (iii)—increases the reaction rate.

Explanation:

<em>Which of the following changes always leads to an increase in the rate constant for a reaction?</em>

  • <em>Decreasing the temperature. </em>NO. A lower temperature leads to a slower reaction because the molecules have less energy to react.
  • <em>Decreasing the activation energy</em>. YES. According to the Arrhenius equation, the lower the activation energy, the higher the rate constant.
  • <em>Making the value of ΔE more negative</em>. NO. A more negative ΔE means a reaction is more spontaneous but not faster.

Which of these have the same number of particles as 1 mole of water H2O
Fed [463]

Answer:

It is equal to Avogadro's number (NA), namely 6.022 x1023. If we have one mole of water, then we know that it will have a mass of 2 grams (for 2 moles of H atoms) + 16 grams (for one mole O atom) = 18 grams.

Explanation:

The question is not very much clear.

If you are asking for molecules then 1 mole water= 6.023 * 10^23

If you are asking for atoms then 1 mole water= 6.023 * 10^23 * 3

If you are asking for particles then,

So, in your example you would have one mole of water molecules. If you dissociated those water molecules, than you would end up with 2 moles of hydrogen atoms, and one mole of oxygen atoms.

I hope that was helpful!

H=1 proton,1 electron

O=8 protons,8 neutrons and 8 electrons

total particles in one H2O molecule-28

total no. of particles in 1 mole of water- 6.023 * 10^23 * 28

What is the amount of energy for a photon that has a 125 cm wavelength
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

1.59 x 10⁻²⁵ J.

Explanation:

  • The energy of a photon is calculated Planck - Einstein's equation:

E = h ν , where

E is the energy of the photon,

h is  Planck's constant <em>(h = 6.626  x 10 ⁻³⁴ J.s)</em>

ν  is the frequency of the photon

  • There is a relation between the frequency (ν ) and wave length (λ).

λ.ν = c,

where c is the speed of light in vacuum (c = 3 .0 x 10 ⁸ m/s).

λ = 125 cm = 1.25 m.

<em>Now, E = h.c/λ.</em>

∴ E = h.c/λ = (6.626  x 10 ⁻³⁴ J.s) (3 .0 x 10 ⁸ m/s) / (1.25 m) = 1.59 x 10⁻²⁵ J.

Why do you think it is advantageous to use inert electrodes in the electrolysis process? ​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The advantage of this technique is that purified water as well as deposited metals can be re-used. It is necessary to use an inert electrode, such as platinum, because there is no metal present to conduct the electrons from the anode to the cathode.

A 3.8-mol sample of KClO3 was decomposed according to the equation. How many moles of O2 are formed assuming 100% yield?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

5.7 moles of O2

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced decomposition equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2KClO3 —> 2KCl + 3O2

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of KClO3 decomposed to produce 3 moles of O2.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of O2 produced by the reaction of 3.8 moles of KClO3.

Since 100% yield of O2 is obtained, it means that both the actual yield and theoretical yield of O2 are the same. Thus, we can obtain the number of mole of O2 produced as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of KClO3 decomposed to produce 3 moles of O2.

Therefore, 3.8 moles of KClO3 will decompose to produce = (3.8 × 3)/2 = 5.7 moles of O2.

Thus, 5.7 moles of O2 were obtained from the reaction.
