Answer : The order of reaction with respect to A is, first order reaction.

The order of reaction with respect to B is, zero order reaction.

The overall order of reaction is, first order reaction.

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$A+B\rightarrow Products$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$3.20\times 10^{-1}=k(1.50)^a(1.50)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$3.20\times 10^{-1}=k(1.50)^a(2.50)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

$6.40\times 10^{-1}=k(3.00)^a(1.50)^b$ ....(3)

Dividing 1 from 2, we get:

$\frac{3.20\times 10^{-1}}{3.20\times 10^{-1}}=\frac{k(1.50)^a(2.50)^b}{k(1.50)^a(1.50)^b}\\\\1=1.66^b\\b=0$

Dividing 1 from 3, we get:

$\frac{6.40\times 10^{-1}}{3.20\times 10^{-1}}=\frac{k(3.00)^a(1.50)^b}{k(1.50)^a(1.50)^b}\\\\2=2^a\\a=1$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[A]^1[B]^0$

$\text{Rate}=k[A]$

Thus,

The order of reaction with respect to A is, first order reaction.

The order of reaction with respect to B is, zero order reaction.

The overall order of reaction is, first order reaction.

What is the theoretical yield of aluminum oxide if 3.00 mol of aluminum metal is exposed to 2.55 mol of oxygen?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Theoretical yield of Al₂O₃: 1.50 mol.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

$2 \; \text{Al} + \dfrac{3}{2} \; \text{O}_2 \to {\bf 1} \; \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3$ ;

$4 \; \text{Al} + 3 \; \text{O}_2 \to 2 \; \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3 \; \textit{Balanced}$ .

How many moles of aluminum oxide formula units will be produced <em>if</em> aluminum is the limiting reactant?

Aluminum reacts to aluminum oxide at a two-to-one ratio.

$3.00 \times \dfrac{1}{2} = 1.50 \; \text{mol}$ .

As a result, 3.00 moles of aluminum will give rise to 1.50 moles of aluminum oxide.

How many moles of aluminum oxide formula units will be produced <em>if</em> oxygen is the limiting reactant?

Oxygen reacts to produce aluminum oxide at a three-to-two ratio.

$2.55 \times \dfrac{2}{3} = 1.70 \; \text{mol}$

As a result, 2.55 moles of oxygen will give rise to 1.70 moles of aluminum oxide.

How many moles of aluminum oxide formula units will be produced?

Aluminum is the limiting reactant. Only 1.50 moles of aluminum oxide formula units will be produced. 1.70 moles isn't feasible since aluminum would run out by the time 1.50 moles was produced.

ΔG o for the reaction H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g) is 2.60 kJ/mol at 25°C. Calculate ΔG o , and predict the direction in which the rea

kondaur [170]

Answer:

The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g) ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

Temperature = 25°C = 25+273 = 298 Kelvin

The initial pressures are:

pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate ΔG

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q

with ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

with R = 8.3145 J/K*mol

with T = 298 Kelvin

Q = the reaction quotient → has the same expression as equilibrium constant → in this case Kp = [p(HI)]²/ [p(H2)] [p(I2)]

with pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

Q = (3.10²)/(1.5*1.75)

Q = 3.661

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q

ΔG = 2600 J/mol + 8.3145 J/K*mol * 298 K * ln(3.661)

ΔG =5815.43 J/mol = 5.815 kJ/mol

To be spontaneous, ΔG should be <0.

ΔG >>0 so the reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Good morning, I have a question..

matrenka [14]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 5.24 mL</h3>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

$volume = \frac{mass}{density} \\$

From the question

mass = 152 g

density = 29 g/cm³

We have

$volume = \frac{152}{29} \\ = 5.24137931...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Describe what happens in a condensation reactions

dlinn [17]

A condensation reaction is described to be a reaction wherein two molecules form an even larger product and consequently produces a smaller molecule as a by-product. For example, when two amino acids are combined, a dipeptide bond is formed. As a result, 1 molecule of water is produced as a by-product.
