Answer:
0.278 m/s
Explanation:
We can answer the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before the collision must be equal to the total momentum after the collision.
So we can write:
where
m = 0.200 kg is the mass of the koala bear
u = 0.750 m/s is the initial velocity of the koala bear
M = 0.350 kg is the mass of the other clay model
v is their final combined velocity
Solving the equation for v, we get
Answer: a) The rate constant, k, for this reaction is
b) No does not depend on concentration.
Explanation:
Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.
Given: Order with respect to = 1
Thus rate law is:
a)
k= rate constant
The rate constant, k, for this reaction is
b) Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant
t = age of sample
a = let initial amount of the reactant
a - x = amount left after decay process
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Thus does not depend on concentration.
