How do some insects take advantage of the surface tension of water?

Answers

Answer 1
Some insects can walk on water due to the structure of their feet and their weight in combination with the surface tension of water. Water molecules attract each other, so they form a force to stay together call surface tension.

At 298 K, the rate constant for a reaction is 0.0346 s-1. What is the rate constant at 350K if the Ea = 50.2kJ/mol

Answers

Answer:

0.702 /s

Explanation:

Rate constant at [tex][298 \mathrm{~K}, \mathrm{~K}_{1}=3.46 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}[/tex]

Rate constant at [tex]350 \mathrm{~K}, \mathrm{~K}_{2}=?[/tex]

[tex]T_{1}=298 \mathrm{~K}[/tex]

[tex]T_{2}=350 \mathrm{~K}[/tex]

Activation energy, [tex]\mathrm{Ea}=50.2 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol}[/tex]

Use the following equation to calculate [tex]K_{2}$ at $350 \mathrm{~K}[/tex]

Use the following equation to calculate [tex]K_{2}$ at $350 \mathrm{~K}[/tex]

[tex]\ln \frac{\mathrm{K}_{2}}{\mathrm{~K}_{1}}=\frac{\mathrm{Ea}}{\mathrm{R}}\left[\frac{1}{\mathrm{~T}_{1}}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{~T}_{2}}\right][/tex]

Therefore,

 [tex]\ln \left(\frac{K_{2}}{3.46 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}}\right) &=\frac{50.2 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol}}{8.314 \mathrm{JK}^{-1} \mathrm{~mole}^{-1}}\left[\frac{1}{298 \mathrm{~K}}-\frac{1}{350 \mathrm{~K}}\right][/tex]

[tex]\ln \left(\frac{K_{2}}{3.46 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}}\right) &=\frac{50.2 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol}}{8.314 \mathrm{JK}^{-1} \mathrm{~mole}^{-1}}\left[\frac{52 \mathrm{~K}}{298 \mathrm{~K} \times 350 \mathrm{~K}}\right][/tex]

[tex]\frac{K_{2}}{3.46 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}} &=\mathrm{e}^{3.01}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{K_{2}}{3.46 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}} &=20.3[/tex]

[tex]K_{2} &=20.3 \times 3.46 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]&=0.702 \mathrm{~s}^{-1}[/tex]

hence, the rate constant at [tex]350 \mathrm{~K} [/tex] is 0.702[tex]\mathrm{~s}^{-1}[/tex]

A gas diffuses 1/7 times faster than hydrogen gas (H2).

What is the molar mass of the gas?

100.10 g/mol
98.78 g/mol
86.68 g/mol
79.98 g/mol

Answers

Answer: The molar mass of the gas is 9.878 g/mol.

Explanation:

According to Graham's law, the rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to square root of molar mass of gas.

[tex]Rate = \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}}[/tex]

where,

M = molar mass of gas

As given gas diffuses 1/7 times faster than hydrogen gas. So, its molar mass is calculated as follows.

[tex]\frac{R_{1}}{R_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{2}}{M_{1}}}\\[/tex]

where,

[tex]M_{1}[/tex] = molar mass of hydrogen gas

[tex]M_{2}[/tex] = molar mass of another given gas

[tex]R_{1}[/tex] = rate of diffusion of hydrogen

[tex]R_{2}[/tex] = rate of diffusion of another given gas = [tex]\frac{1}{7}R_{1}[/tex]

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]\frac{R_{1}}{R_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{2}}{M_{1}}}\\\frac{R_{1}}{\frac{1}{7}R_{1}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{2}}{2}}\\7 \times 1.414 = M_{2}\\M_{2} = 9.878 g/mol[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the molar mass of the gas is 9.878 g/mol.

A gas with a volume of 250 mL at a temperature of 293K is heated to 324K. What is the new volume of the gas?

Answers

V2 = 276 ml

Explanation:

Given:

V1 = 250 ml V2 = ?

T1 = 293K. T2 = 324K

Here, we use Charles's law:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Solving for P2, we get

V2 = (T2/T1)V1

= (324K/293K)(250 ml)

= 276 ml

Imagine you had HCl with a concentration of exactly 0.10 mol/dm3. If 0.023 dm3 of a sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq), could exactly neutralize 0.040 dm3 of the HCl solution, what is the concentration of the NaOH (aq)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the amount of sodium hydroxide in moles

Volume of sodium hydroxide solution = 25.0 ÷ 1,000 = 0.0250 dm3

Rearrange:

Concentration in mol/dm3 =

Amount of solutein mol = concentration in mol/dm3 × volume in dm3

Amount of sodium hydroxide = 0.100 × 0.0250

= 0.00250 mol

Step 2: Find the amount of hydrochloric acid in moles

The balanced equation is: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

So the mole ratio NaOH:HCl is 1:1

Therefore 0.00250 mol of NaOH reacts with 0.00250 mol of HCl

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid in mol/dm3

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 20.00 ÷ 1000 = 0.0200 dm3

Concentration in mol/dm3 =

Concentration in mol/dm3 =

= 0.125 mol/dm3

Step 4: Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid in g/dm3

Relative formula mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5

Mass = relative formula mass × amount

Mass of HCl = 36.5 × 0.125

= 4.56 g

So concentration = 4.56 g/dm3

What is a chemical change?

Chemical changes are defined as changes which occur when a substance combines with another substance to form a new substance.Alternatively, when a substance breaks down or decomposes to give new substances it is also considered to be a chemical change.

There are several characteristics of chemical changes like change in color, change in state , change in odor and change in composition . During chemical change there is also formation of precipitate an insoluble mass of substance or even evolution of gases.

There are three types of chemical changes:

1) inorganic changes

2)organic changes

3) biochemical changes

During chemical changes atoms are rearranged and changes are accompanied by an energy change as new substances are formed.

What is the specific heat capacity of silver metal if 110.00 g of the metal

Answers

Answer:

"0.24 J/g.k" is the appropriate solution.

Explanation:

Mass of substance,

m = 110.00 g

Heat,

q = 396 J

Change in temperature,

ΔT = 15.0°C  

Now,

The specific heat will be:

⇒  [tex]q=ms \Delta T[/tex]

On putting the given values, we get

⇒  [tex]396=110.00\times s\times 15.0[/tex]

⇒  [tex]396=s\times 1650[/tex]

⇒      [tex]s=\frac{396}{1650}[/tex]

The ionization energies required to remove successive electrons from one mole of calcium atoms are 590 kJ/mol, 1145 kJ/mol, 4912 kJ/mol, and 6474 kJ/mol. The most common ion of calcium is probably

Answers

Answer:

Ca^2+

Explanation:

As we know, more energy is required to remove an electron from a positively charged ion than is required to remove an electron from a neutral atom. Hence, the second ionization energy of calcium is greater than its first ionization energy.

However, the third and fourth ionization energies of calcium are much higher than the second ionization energy because they involve removal of electrons from an inner filed shell. This process requires a lot of energy and is often not feasible.

Hence, the most common ion of calcium must be Ca^2+ where only two electrons are removed from calcium.
