15.9 KJ/mol Explanation: Given data: Temperature = T1 = 307 K, Temperature = T2 = 343 K, Gas constant R = 8.314 J/(mol • K), rate constant = k2/K1 = 89. To determine: Activation energy (in kJ/mol) = Ea =? Formula: The Arrhenius equation establishes the relationship between temperature and reaction rates. Here, in this equation, k = the rate constant, Ea = the activation energy, R = the Universal Gas Constant, T = the temperature. Solution: ln 89 = Ea / 8.314 J/mol.K * (0.0325 - 0.00291). then ln 89 = Ea / 8.314 J/mol.K * (2.95 x 10^2). Resulting in 4.488 = Ea / 8.314 J/mol.K * (2.95 x 10^2). Therefore, Ea = 4.488 * (2.95 x 10^2) / 8.314 J/mol.K which simplifies to Ea = 0.1324 / 8.314. Thus, Ea = 0.0159 and finally, Ea = 1.59 x 10^2 J/mol or 15.9 KJ/mol.

The percentage of calcium carbonate that reacted is 2.5%. The reaction in question allows us to determine the equilibrium Kp: Kp = the partial pressure of carbon dioxide, since the other components are solids. We'll apply the ICE table to the provided equilibrium. At the start, we have 0.2 for calcium carbonate with no initial moles of other substances. As the reaction progresses, we set the changes to be -x for calcium carbonate, +x for carbon dioxide, and +x for the other product, leading us to an equilibrium of 0.2-x for calcium carbonate while both other products are at x. Using Kp = Kc(RT)ⁿ, where n represents the mole difference of gaseous products and reactants, we find n to equal 1 for this reaction. With R as the gas constant (8.314 J/mol K) and the temperature at 800 °C (1073 K), we substitute the values accordingly. Upon calculation, we find x = 0.005, which indicates the amount of calcium carbonate that dissociated or reacted, leading us to the reacted percentage.

VMariaS [2998]

Answer: Yes, there is sufficient sodium carbonate available.

Explanation:

In this scenario, according to the specified reaction:

Using stoichiometry, one can figure out the grams of sodium carbonate required to neutralize 1,665 g of sulfuric acid as outlined below:

H_2SO_4(aq) + Na_2CO_3(s) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq) + CO_2(g) + H_2O(l)

Hence, the amount on hand is 2.0 kg, which leaves 0.2 kg as surplus, therefore:

A. Yes, there is sufficient sodium carbonate available.

1,665gH_2SO_4*\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{98.08gH_2SO_4}*\frac{1molNa_2CO_3}{1molH_2SO_4} *\frac{105.99gNa_2CO_3}{1molNa_2CO_3}*\frac{1kgNa_2CO_3}{1000gNa_2CO_3}\\m_{Na_2CO_3}=1.80gNa_2CO_3Best regards.

Determine how many grams of silver would be produced, if 12.83 x 10^23 atoms of copper react with an excess of silver nitrate. G
Anarel [2989]
1) The chemical equation is

Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu (NO3)2 + 2Ag

2) Molar ratios are as follows:

1 mol Cu: 2 moles AgNO3: 1 mol Cu (NO3)2: 2 mol Ag

3) Converting 12.83 * 10^23 atoms of Cu to moles gives:

12.83 * 10^23 atoms / (6.02 * 10^23 atoms / mol) = 2.131 mol Cu

4) Using the ratios:

2.131 mol Cu * 2 mol Ag / 1 mol Cu = 4.262 mol Ag

5) To convert 4.262 mol of silver to grams, use the atomic weight of silver:

mass = moles × atomic mass = 4.262 mol * 107.9 g / mol = 459.9 grams

Answer: 459.9 g
