Answer:

0.290 atm is the pressure of the system after 7.7min

Explanation:

The general first-order rate constant is:

ln [A] = -kt + ln [A]₀

<em>Where [A] is concentration of A in time t,</em>

<em>K is rate constant, 3.2x10⁻⁴s⁻¹</em>

<em>[A]₀ is initial concentration = 0.336atm.</em>

<em />

7.7 min are:

7.7min * (60s / 1min) = 462s

Solving:

ln [A] = -kt + ln [A]₀

ln [A] = -<em>3.2x10⁻⁴s⁻¹*462s</em> + ln [0.336atm]

ln [A] = -1.238

[A] =

<h3>0.290 atm is the pressure of the system after 7.7min</h3>

Which of the following statements concerning hydrocarbons is/are correct?
Alona [7]

Answer:

1.  Saturated hydrocarbons may be cyclic or acyclic molecules.

2.  An unsaturated hydrocarbon molecule contains at least one double bond.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, hydrocarbons are defined as the simplest organic compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen only, for that reason we can immediately discard the third statement as ethylenediamine is classified as an amine (organic chain containing NH groups).

Next, as saturated hydrocarbons only show single carbon-to-carbon bonds and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds, they may be cyclic (ring-like-shaped) or acyclic (not forming rings), so first statement is true

Finally, since we can find saturated hydrocarbons which have single carbon-to-carbon and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds only and unsaturated hydrocarbons which could have double or triple bonds between carbons and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds, the presence of at least one double bond makes the hydrocarbon unsaturated.

Therefore, first and second statements are correct.

Best regards.

In a favorable reaction, the free energy of the products is ________ the free energy of the reactants. In a favorable reaction,
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

In a favorable reaction, the free energy of the products is less than the free energy of the reactants.

Explanation:

The free energy of a system is the amount of a system's internal energy that is available to perform work. The different forms of free energy include Gibbs free energy and Helmholtz free energy.

In a system at constant temperature and pressure, the energy that can be converted into work or the amount of usable energy in that system is known as Gibbs free energy. In a system at constant temperature and volume, the energy that can be converted into work is known as Helmholtz free energy.

The change in free energy of a system is the maximum usable energy that is released or absorbed by a system when it goes from the initial state (i.e., all reactants) to the final state (i.e., all products).

In a chemical reaction, some bonds in the reactants are broken by absorbing energy and new bonds are formed in the products by releasing energy. As the reaction proceeds, the free energy of reactants is much greater than the products. As the products are formed, the concentration of reactants decreases and the difference in their free energy also decreases. This chemical reaction will occur until chemical equilibrium is achieved i.e., the free energy of the products and reactants is equal and the difference in their free energy is zero.

A pan containing 40 grams of water was allowed to cool from a temperature of 91.0C. If the amount of heat repressed is 1,300 jou
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

83°C

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question:

M = 40g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 91°C

T2 =?

Q = 1300J

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/CM

ΔT = 1300/(4.2x40)

ΔT = 8°C

But ΔT = T1 — T2 (since the reaction involves cooling)

ΔT = T1 — T2

8 = 91 — T2

Collect like terms

8 — 91 = —T2

— 83 = —T2

Multiply through by —1

T2 = 83°C

The final temperature is 83°C

How much silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S

Explanation:

The compound Ag2S shows that two atoms of Silver Ag, combined with an atom of Sulphur S to form Ag2S. We can as well say the combination ration of Silver to Sulphur is 2:1

•Now we need to calculate the molecular weight of this compound by summing up the molar masses of each element in the compound.

•Molar mass of Silver Ag= 107.9g/mol

•Molar mass of Sulphur S= 32g/mol

•Molecular weight of Ag2S= (2×107.9g/mol) + 32g/mol

•Molecular weight of Ag2S= 215.8g/mol + 32g/mol= 247.8g/mol

•From our calculations, we know that 215.8g/mol of Ag is present in 247.8g/mol of Ag2S

If 247.8g Ag2S produced 215.8g Ag

125g Ag2S will produce xg Ag

cross multiplying we have

xg= 215.8g × 125g / 247.8g

xg= 26975g/247.8

xg= 108.85g

Therefore, 108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S

A sample of 0.300 mg pure chromium was added to excess hydrochloric acid to form a 10.0 mL aqueous solution of a chromium (III)
DerKrebs [107]

extinction coefficient (ε) = 347 L·mol⁻¹·cm⁻¹

Explanation:

The chemical reaction between chromium (Cr) and hydrochloric acid (HCl):

2 Cr + 6 HCl → 2 CrCl₃ + 3 H₂

number of moles = mass / molar weight

number of moles of Cr = 0.3 × 10⁻³ (g) / 52 (g/mole)

number of moles of Cr = 5.77 × 10⁻⁶ moles

From the chemical reaction we see that 2 moles of Cr will produce 2 moles of CrCl₃ so 5.77 × 10⁻⁶ moles of Cr will produce 5.77 × 10⁻⁶ moles of CrCl₃.

molar concentration = number of moles / volume (L)

molar concentration of CrCl₃ = 5.77 × 10⁻⁶ / 10 × 10⁻³

molar concentration of CrCl₃ = 5.77 × 10⁻⁴ moles / L

Now we need to transform percent transmittance (%T) in absorbance (A) using the following formula:

A = 2 - log (%T)

A = 2 - log (62.5)

A = 2 - 1.8

A = 0.2

We know that absorbance (A) is defined in respect with extinction coefficient (ε), cell length (l) and concentration (c):

A = εlc

ε = A / lc

ε = 0.2 / (1 × 5.77 × 10⁻⁴)

ε = 0.0347 × 10⁴

ε = 347 L·mol⁻¹·cm⁻¹
