Answer:

k = 1.3 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the integrated rate law is

Ln [A]t/[A]₀ = - kt

where [A] are the concentrations of acetaldehyde in this case, t is the time and k is the rate constant.

We are given the half life for the concentration of acetaldehyde to fall to one half its original value, thus

Ln [A]t/[A]₀ = Ln 1/2[A]₀/[A]₀= Ln 1/2 = - kt

- 0.693 = - k(530s) ⇒ k = 1.3 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

joja [24]

Answer:

This question is incomplete and unclear; the complete question including the missing part is:

Emelie is working on a science project. Her task is to answer the question:

"Does Rogooti (a hair cream sold on TV) affect the speed of hair growth

(in length)". Her family is willing to volunteer for the experiment. Identify the control group (CG) and the independent and dependent variables.

ANSWER:

Independent variable: Rogooti hair cream

Dependent variable: Speed of hair growth/length

Control group: Family members that do not use the Rogooti hair cream

Explanation:

In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that the experimenter changes or manipulates in order to bring about a measurable response. In this case, the ROGOOTI HAIR CREAM is the independent variable.

Dependent variable refers to the variable that is measured or the variable that responds to the change made to the independent variable. In this case, the dependent variable is SPEED AT WHICH HAIR GROWS (IN LENGTH).

Control group in an experiment is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment. In this case, the experimental treatment is the Rogooti hair cream, hence, the control group will be the VOLUNTEER FAMILY MEMBERS THAT DOES NOT RECEIVE THE ROGOOTI HAIR CREAM ON THEIR HAIR.

ipn [44]

Answer:

relative rate of diffusion is 1.05

Explanation:

According to Graham's law of difussion:

Rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of molecular weight of a molecule.

For two given molecules:

\frac{(rate)_{1}}{(rate)_{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{M_{2}} }{\sqrt{M_{1}}}

The given molecules are

Water = 18.01

Heavy water =20.03

Thus the relative rate of diffusion will be:

\frac{(rate)_{water}}{(rate)_{heavywater}}=\sqrt{ \frac{20.03}{18.01}}=1.05

A certain radioactive nuclide has a half life of 1.00 hour(s). Calculate the rate constant for this nuclide. s-1 Calculate the d
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

k= 1.925×10^-4 s^-1

1.2 ×10^20 atoms/s

Explanation:

From the information provided;

t1/2=Half life= 1.00 hour or 3600 seconds

Then;

t1/2= 0.693/k

Where k= rate constant

k= 0.693/t1/2 = 0.693/3600

k= 1.925×10^-4 s^-1

Since 1 mole of the nuclide contains 6.02×10^23 atoms

Rate of decay= rate constant × number of atoms

Rate of decay = 1.925×10^-4 s^-1 ×6.02×10^23 atoms

Rate of decay= 1.2 ×10^20 atoms/s

When hydrogen chloride ionizes in water, which reactant is the proton donor? chlorine which reactant is the proton acceptor? hyd
AlladinOne [14]
Let's write the reaction first.

HCl + H₂O ---> H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻

These reaction has two reactants, either the proton donor or the proton acceptor. Water is amphoteric, meaning it can act as an acid or base. Since HCl is an acid, then water in this reaction acts as a base. 

1. The proton donor is HCl because it donates H+ to water which yields a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺.
2. The proton acceptor is water.
