Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of reaction but can be recovered unchanged at the end of the reaction. Catalysts

can be classified as either homogeneous (same state as reactants) or heterogeneous (different state than reactants).
Platinum is used to catalyze the hydrogenation of ethylene:
H2(g)+CH2CH2(g)−⟶Pt(s)CH3CH3(g)
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) catalyze the conversion of ozone (O3) to oxygen gas (O2):
2O3(g)−⟶CFC(g)3O2(g)
Magnesium catalyzes the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide to produce water and oxygen:
2H2O2(aq)−⟶Mg(s)2H2O(l)+O2(g)
What type of catalysts are platinum, CFCs, and magnesium under these conditions?

Answer:

-  Platinum acts as a heterogeneous catalyst in the hydrogenation of ethylene.

- CFCs act as homogeneous catalysts in the conversion of ozone to oxygen gas.

- Magnesium acts as a heterogeneous catalyst in the disproportionantion of hydrogen peroxide.

Explanation:

Hello,

For the given reactions, considering the definition of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalyst, we can identify that is each catalyst behave as follows:

-  Platinum acts as a heterogeneous catalyst in the hydrogenation of ethylene as all the reactants are gaseous but it remains solid.

- CFCs act as homogeneous catalysts in the conversion of ozone to oxygen gas as it remains gaseous as well as both ozone and oxygen.

- Magnesium acts as a heterogeneous catalyst in the disproportionantion of hydrogen peroxide as it is solid whereas the other species are aqueous, liquid and gaseous

Best regards.

A 25 gram(m) metal ball is heated to 200C(delta T) with 2330 Joules(q) of energy. What is the specific heat of the metal?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 0.466 \frac{J}{g*C}

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

The equation that allows calculating heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case:

  • Q= 2330 J
  • c= ?
  • m= 25 g
  • ΔT= 200 °C

Replacing:

2330 J= c*25 g* 200 °C

Solving:

c=\frac{2330 J}{25 g* 200 C}

c=0.466 \frac{J}{g*C}

<u><em>The specific heat of the metal is 0.466 </em></u>\frac{J}{g*C}<u><em></em></u>

andre [41]

Answer:

Energy transfers from the metal to the water and calorimeter until they are all at room temperature.

Explanation:

CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;

A metal sample is heated and placed into the water in a calorimeter at room temperature. Which statement best describes how the calorimeter can be used to determine the specific heat capacity of the metal sample?

Energy transfers to the metal from the water and calorimeter until they are all at room temperature

. Energy transfers from the metal to the water and calorimeter until they are all at room temperature.

Energy transfers to the metal from the water and calorimeter until they all reach a single temperature.

Energy transfers from the metal to the water and calorimeter until they all reach a single temperature.

EXPLANATION;

Using calorimeter to determine the specific heat capacity of the metal sample can be associated to the theory of conservation of energy because heat which is a form of energy is been transfer of heat between the metal to the water and the calorimeter, this process will proceed till single temperature is attained.

The change in the amount of temperature of the water in the calorimeter is measured in order to get the difference in heat change of the calorimeter water.

CHANGE IN HEAT CAN BE CALCULATED USING THE FORMULA.

Q = cmΔT where Q is the change in heat , c is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature

How many molecules are in 3.6 grams of NaCl?
raketka [301]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{None}}

Explanation:

There are no molecules in NaCl, because it consists only of ions.

However, we can calculate the number of formula units (FU) of NaCl.

Step 1. Calculate the moles of NaCl

\text{No. of moles}=\text{3.6 g NaCl}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol NaCl}}{\text{63.54 g NaCl}} = \text{0.0567 mol NaCl}

Step 2. Convert moles to formula units

\text{FU} = \text{0.0567 mol NaCl} \times \dfrac{6.022 \times 10^{23}\text{ FU NaCl}}{\text{1 mol NaCl}}\\\\= 3.4 \times 10^{22} \text{ FU NaCl}

There are \boxed{3.4 \times 10^{22} \text{ FU NaCl}} in 3.6 g of NaCl.
