Answer:
False
Explanation:
Reaction rates is a field under chemical kinetics that deals with the measure of speed of a chemical reaction. It is the change in the concentration of a reactant or product per unit time.
Activation Energy is a theory been put forward to explain why different chemical reactions proceed at different rates.
Activation Energy theory postulates that for a reactant to transform into a product , the colliding particles or molecules of the reactant must possess a certain amount of energy so as to overcome the reaction barrier.
An important factor which may influence the attainment of activation energy by colliding particles of reactants is the temperature at which the reaction is carried out. The higher the temperature, the greater is the fraction of the reactant particles which possess the activation energy and thus the faster the reaction becomes. SO , in essence increasing the temperature of a reaction system do not decreases the activation energy of the reaction but rather also increases the activation energy of the reaction.

The standard entropy of a substance refers to its entropy at:__________.
a. absolute zero and 1 bar
b. 0°C and 1 bar
c. 25 °C and 1 bar
d. 25 °C and 0 bar
Answer:
b. 0°C and 1 bar
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the STP conditions are standard temperature and pressure sets of conditions for experimental measurements to be established to allow comparisons to be made between different sets of data, it means that a specific pressure and temperature is assigned to analyze the properties of a substance. Such conditions are strictly 0°C and 1 bar because a large number of physical, chemical and thermodynamic properties are measured at them, therefore the standard entropy of a substance refers to its entropy at: b. 0°C and 1 bar.

A man weighs 185 lb. What is his mass in grams?
Please show work.
Thank you
Answer:
83914.52 grams
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of a man is 185 lb
We need to find his weight in grams
For this, we must know the relation between lb and grams.
We know that,
1 lb = 453.592 grams
To find the mass of man in grams, the step is :
185 lb = (453.592 × 185) grams
= 83914.52 grams
So, the mass of a man is 83914.52 grams.

Using the data: C2H4(g), = +51.9 kJ mol-1, S° = 219.8 J mol-1 K-1 CO2(g), = ‑394 kJ mol-1, S° = 213.6 J mol-1 K-1 H2O(l), = ‑286.0 kJ mol-1, S° = 69.96 J mol-1 K-1 O2(g), = 0.00 kJ mol-1, S° = 205 J mol-1 K-1 calculate the maximum amount of work that can be obtained, at 25.0 °C, from the process: C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l)
Answer:
The correct answer is 1332 KJ.
Explanation:
Based on the given information,
ΔH°f of C2H4 is 51.9 KJ/mol, ΔH°O2 is 0.0 KJ/mol, ΔH°f of CO2 is -394 KJ/mol, and ΔH°f of H2O is -286 KJ/mol.
Now the balanced equation is:
C2H4 (g) + 3O2 (g) ⇔ 2CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l)
ΔH°rxn = 2 × ΔH°f CO2 + 2 × ΔH°fH2O - 1 × ΔH°fC2H4 - 3×ΔH°fO2
ΔH°rxn = 2 (-394) + 2(-286) - 1(51.9) - 3(0)
ΔH°rxn = -1411.9 KJ
Now, the given ΔS°f of C2H4 is 219.8 J/mol.K, ΔS°f of O2 is 205 J/mol.K, ΔS°f of CO2 is 213.6 J/mol.K, and ΔS°f of H2O is 69.96 J/mol.K.
Now based on the balanced chemical reaction,
ΔS°rxn = 2 × ΔS°fCO2 + 2 ΔS°fH2O - 1 × ΔS°f C2H4 - 3 ΔS°fO2
ΔS°rxn = 2 (213.6) + 2(69.96) - 1(219.8) -3(205)
ΔS°rxn = -267.68 J/K or -0.26768 KJ/K
T = 25 °C or 298 K
Now putting the values of ΔH, ΔS and T in the equation ΔG = ΔH-TΔS, we get
ΔG = -1411.9 - 298.0 × (-0.2677)
ΔG = -1332 KJ.
Thus, the maximum work, which can obtained is 1332 kJ.

Answer:
6.5 mg/L.
Explanation:
Step one: write out and Balance the chemical reaction in the Question above:
NiCl2 + 2AgNO3 =====> 2AgCl + Ni(NO3)2.
Step two: Calculate or determine the number of moles of AgCl.
So, we are given that the mass of AgCl = 3.6 mg = 3.6 × 10^-3 g. Therefore, the number of moles of AgCl can be calculated as below:
Number of moles AgCl = mass/molar mass = 3.6 × 10^-3 g / 143.32. = 2.5118 × 10^-5 moles.
Step three: Calculate or determine the number of moles of NiCl2.
Thus, the number of moles of NiCl2 = 2.5118 × 10^-5/ 2 = 1.2559 × 10^-5 moles.
Step four: detemine the mass of NiCl2.
Therefore, the mass of NiCl2 = number of moles × molar mass = 1.2559 × 10^-5 moles × 129.6 = 1.6 × 10^-3 g.
Step five: finally, determine the concentration of NiCl2.
1000/ 250 × 1.6 × 10^-3 g. = 6.5 mg/L.
What is the value of the equilibrium constant, K, for a reaction for which ∆G° is equal to –5.20 kJ at 50°C?
Answer:
6.93
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Standard Gibbs free energy (∆G°): -5.20 kJTemperature (T): 50°CEquilibrium constant (K): ?Step 2: Convert the temperature to the Kelvin scale
We will use the following expression.
K = °C + 273.15
K = 50°C + 273.15
K = 323 K
Step 3: Calculate K
We will use the following expression.
∆G° = -R × T × ln K
-5.20 × 10³ J = -(8.314 J/mol.K) × 323 K × ln K
K = 6.93
Of the following two gases, which would you predict to diffuse more rapidly? PLZZ HELPP PLZ PLZ PLZ
Answer:
CO2 will diffuse more rapidly.
Explanation:
From Graham's law of diffusion, we understood that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its density as shown below:
Rate (R) & 1/√Density (d)
R & 1/√d
But, the density of a gas is directly proportional to the relative molecular mass (M) of the gas.
Thus, we can say that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. This can be represented mathematically as:
Rate (R) & 1/√Molar mass (M)
R & 1/√M
From the above illustration, we can say that the lighter the gas, the faster the rate of diffusion and the heavier the gas, the slower the rate of diffusion.
Now, to answer the question given above,let us determine the molar mass of Cl2 and CO2.
This is illustrated below:
Molar mass of Cl2 = 2 x 35.5 = 71 g/mol
Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 12 + 32 = 44 g/mol
Summary
Gas >>>>>> Molar mass
Cl2 >>>>>> 71 g/mol
CO2 >>>>> 44 g/mol
From the illustration above, we can see that CO2 is lighter than Cl2.
Therefore, CO2 will diffuse more rapidly.

Answer:
3.0x10⁻²M
Explanation:
Silver sulfate, Ag₂SO₄, has a product constant solubility equilbrium of:
Ag₂SO₄(s) ⇄ 2Ag⁺ + SO₄²⁻
When an excess of silver sulfate is added, some Ag₂SO₄ will react producing Ag⁺ and SO₄²⁻ until reach the equilbrium determined for the formula:
ksp = 1.4x10⁻⁵ = [Ag⁺]² [SO₄²⁻]
Assuming the Ag₂SO₄ that react until reach equilibrium is X, we can replace in Ksp expression:
1.4x10⁻⁵ = [Ag⁺]² [SO₄²⁻]
1.4x10⁻⁵ = [2X]² [X]
1.4x10⁻⁵ = 4X³
3.5x10⁻⁶ = X³
0.015 = X
As [Ag⁺] is 2X:
[Ag⁺] = 0.030 = 3.0x10⁻²M
The answer is:
3.0x10⁻²MThe decomposition of ethylene oxide(CH₂)₂O(g) → CH₄(g) + CO(g)is a first order reaction with a half-life of 58.0 min at 652 K. The activation energy of the reaction is 218 kJ/mol. Calculate the half-life at 629 K.
Answer:
Half-life at 629K = 252.4min
Explanation:
Using Arrhenius equation:
[tex]ln\frac{K_1}{K_2} = \frac{Ea}{R} (\frac{1}{T_2} -\frac{1}{T_1})[/tex]
And as Half-life in a first order reaction is:
[tex]t_{1/2}=\frac{ln2}{K}[/tex]
We can convert the half-life of 58.0min to know K₁ adn replacing in Arrhenius equation find half-life at 629K:
[tex]58.0min=\frac{ln2}{K}[/tex]
K = 0.01195min⁻¹ = K₁
[tex]ln\frac{0.01195min^{-1}}{K_2} = \frac{218kJ/mol}{8.314x10^{-3}kJ/molK} (\frac{1}{629K} -\frac{1}{652K})[/tex]
[tex]ln\frac{0.01195min^{-1}}{K_2} =1.47[/tex]
[tex]\frac{0.01195min^{-1}}{K_2} =4.35[/tex]
K₂ = 2.75x10⁻³ min⁻¹
And, replacing again in Half-life expression:
[tex]t_{1/2}=\frac{ln2}{2.75x10^{-3}min^{-1}}[/tex]
Half-life at 629K = 252.4minThe half-life of the first-order reaction of ethylene oxide decomposition at 629 K is 251.1 min when the half-life at 652 K is 58.0 min and the activation energy is 218 kJ/mol.
The activation energy of a reaction is related to its rate constant as follows:
[tex] k = Ae^{-\frac{E_{a}}{RT}} [/tex] (1)
Where:
k: is the rate constant A: is the pre-exponential factor[tex]E_{a}[/tex]: is the activation energy of the reaction = 218 kJ/mol R: is the gas constant = 8.314 J/(K*mol)T: is the temperature
We can find the rate constant of the first-order reaction at 652 K with the half-life as follows:
[tex]k_{652} = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}_{(652)}}[/tex] (2)
Where [tex]t_{1/2}_{(652)}[/tex] is the half-life at 652 K= 58.0 min
Hence, the rate constant at 652 K is:
[tex] k_{652} = \frac{ln(2)}{58.0 min} = 0.012 min^{-1} [/tex]
Now, from equation (1) we can find the pre-exponential factor (A):
[tex]A = \frac{k_{652}}{e^{(-\frac{E_{a}}{RT_{1}})}} = \frac{0.012 \:min{-1}}{e^{(-\frac{218\cdot 10^{3} \:J/mol}{8.314 \:J/(K*mol)*652 \:K})}} = 3.51 \cdot 10^{15} min^{-1}[/tex]
With the pre-exponential factor we can calculate the rate constant at 629 K (eq 1):
[tex]k_{629} = 3.51 \cdot 10^{15} min^{-1}*e^{(-\frac{218 \cdot 10^{3} J/mol}{8.314 J/(K*mol)*629 K})} = 2.76 \cdot 10^{-3} min^{-1}[/tex]
Finally, the half-life at 629 K is (eq 2):
[tex] t_{1/2}_{629} = \frac{ln(2)}{2.76\cdot 10^{-3} min^{-1}} = 251.1 min [/tex]
Therefore, the half-life at 629 K is 251.1 min.

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Which of the following is most likely a heavier stable nucleus? (select all that apply) Select all that apply: A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.05 A nucleus with a A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.49 The nucleus of Sb-123 A nucleus with a mass of 187 and an atomic number of 75
Answer:
A nucleus with a A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.49
A nucleus with a mass of 187 and an atomic number of 75
Explanation:
The stability of a nucleus depends on the number of neutrons and protons present in the nucleus. For many low atomic number elements, the number of protons and number of neutrons are equal. This implies that the neutron/proton ratio = 1
Elements with higher atomic number tend to be more stable if they have a slight excess of neutrons as this reduces the repulsion between protons.
Generally, the belt of stability for chemical elements lie between and N/P ratio of 1 to an N/P ratio of 1.5.
Two options selected have an N/P ratio of 1.49 hence they are heavy stable elements.
Answer:
-A nucleus with a neutron:proton ratio of 1.49
-The nucleus of Sb-123
-A nucleus with a mass of 187 and an atomic number of 75

Answer:
[tex]Speed = 3.30 \frac{km}{hr}[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Distance = 1 mile
Time = 8.92 minutes
Required
Calculate Speed in km/hr
Speed is calculated as thus;
[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]
Substitute 1 mile for distance and 8.92 minutes for time
[tex]Speed = \frac{1\ mile}{8.92\ minutes}[/tex]
Convert Miles to Kilometres
If
[tex]1\ mile = 1609\ m[/tex];
Then
[tex]1\ mile = \frac{1609\ km}{1000}[/tex]
[tex]1\ mile = 1.609\ km[/tex] --- (1)
Convert minutes to hour
[tex]1\ minutes = 0.0167\ hour[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 8.92
[tex]8.92 * 1\ minutes = 0.0167\ hour * 8.92[/tex]
[tex]8.92 \ minutes = 0.148964\ hour[/tex] ---- (2)
By substituting (1) and (2) in [tex]Speed = \frac{1\ mile}{8.92\ minutes}[/tex], we have

Chlorine has an electronegativity value of 3.0. Given the electronegativity of N, O, and P (3.0, 3.5, and 2.1, respectively), which of the following molecules has nonpolar bonds?a. NCl3b. Cl2Oc. PCl3d. All of thesee. None of these
Answer:
a. NCl3
Explanation:
All the elements stated are non metals. Generally the bond between non metals is a covalent bond. However depending on how the electrons are shared, this bond can either be polar or non polar.
A non polar covalent bond is formed when the electrons are shared equally between the atoms.
A way to determine if a bond is non polar or polar covalent is by comparing the electronegativity values.
If the electronegativity difference is less than 0.5, it is regarded as a non polar covalent bond.
Going back to the question;
Between N and Cl; the electronegativity difference is 3.0 - 3.0 = 0
Between Cl and O; the electronegativity difference is 3.5 - 3.0 = 0.5
Between Cl and P; the electronegativity difference is 3.5 - 2.1 = 1.4
From these we can tell that the correct option is option A.

What volume (in mL) needs to be added to 69.6 mL of 0.0887 M MgF2 solution to make a 0.0224 M MgF2 solution
Answer:
The correct answer is 206 ml.
Explanation:
Based on the given information, the molarity or M₁ of MgF₂ solution is 0.0887 M, the molarity or M₂ of the final solution given is 0.0224 M. The initial volume of V₁ of the solution is 69.6 ml, for finding the final volume of V₂ of the solution, the formula to be used is,
M₁V₁ = M₂V₂
Now putting the values in the formula we get,
0.0887 × 69.6 = 0.0224 M × V₂
V₂ = 0.0887 × 69.6 / 0.0224
V₂ = 275.6 ml
Therefore, the volume in ml added to the initial volume of 69.6 ml to make the molarity of the solution 0.0224 will be,
= 275.6 ml - 69.6 ml = 206 ml

As you can see, Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is a solid product -(s)-, that means when the reaction occurs the precipitate produced is the solid,
Ca₃(PO₄)₂b. As 3 moles of calcium nitrate produce 1 mole of calcium phosphate and there are 0.030 moles of calcium nitrate
0.030 moles Ca(NO₃)₂ × (1 mol Ca₃(PO₄)₂ / 3 moles Ca(NO₃)₂) =
0.010 moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ can we expect to be producedc. As molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is 310.18g/mol, the mass of 0.010 moles (The expected mass) is;
0.010 moles Ca₃(PO₄)₂ × (310.18g / mol) =
3.1g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂d. The percent yield is defined as 100 times the ratio between the obtained yield (That is 2.9g of precipitate, Ca₃(PO₄)₂) and the expected yield, 3.1g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂:
[tex]\frac{2.9g}{3.1g} *100[/tex]
Percent yield = 93.5%(a) The product in solid state would be the precipitate. Hence, the precipitate would be Ca3(PO4)2
(b) From the balanced equation of the reaction: 3 moles of Ca(NO3)2 is required for 1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2
If there are just 0.030 moles of Ca(NO3)2, then"
3 moles = 1
0.030 moles = 1 x 0.030/3
= 0.01 moles of Ca3(PO4)2
In other words, 0.01 moles of the precipitate would be expected to be produced from 0.030 moles of calcium nitrate.
(c) 0.01 moles solid (Ca3(PO4)2) is expected. Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 expected:
mass = mole x molar mass
molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = 310.18 g/mol
mass of Ca3(PO4)2 expected to be produced = 0.01 x 310.18
= 3.1018 g
Hence, 3.1018g of solid is expected to be produced.
(d) Percentage yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100
= 2.9/3.1018 x 100
= 93.5%
