Why does every chemical reaction require a certain amount of activation energy?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a chemical reaction to take place.

When a chemical reaction occurs then bonds between the reactants break and bonds between the products are formed. This leads to the formation of an activated complex which is also known as transition state.

So, in order to form the activated complex a minimum amount of energy is necessary and this energy is known as activation energy.

Calculate the molecular weight of a dibasic acid.0.56gm of which is required 250ml of N/20 sodium hydroxide solution for neutralization.​

Answers

Answer: The molecular weight of the dibasic acid is 89.6 g/mol

Explanation:

Normality is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of gram equivalents present per liter of solution. The units of normality are eq/L. The formula used to calculate normality:

[tex]\text{Normality}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Equivalent mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (mL)}}[/tex]      ....(1)

We are given:

Normality of solution = [tex]\frac{1}{20}=0.05N[/tex]

Given mass of solute = 0.56 g

Volume of solution = 250 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

[tex]0.05=\frac{0.56\times 1000}{\text{Equivalent mass of solute}\times 250}\\\\\text{Equivalent mass of solute}=\frac{0.56\times 1000}{0.05\times 250}=44.8g/eq[/tex]

Equivalent weight of an acid is calculated by using the equation:

[tex]\text{Equivalent weight}=\frac{\text{Molar mass}}{\text{Basicity}}[/tex]   .....(2)

Equivalent weight of acid = 44.8 g/eq

Basicity of an acid = 2 eq/mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

[tex]44.8g/eq=\frac{\text{Molar mass}}{2eq/mol}\\\\\text{Molar mass}=(44.8g/eq\times 2eq/mol)=89.6g/mol[/tex]

Hence, the molecular weight of the dibasic acid is 89.6 g/mol

i. Q = mcΔT; identify c. (1 point)
ii. Q = mLvapor; identify Lvapor. (1 point)
iii. Q = mLfusion; identify Lfusion. (1 point)

Answers

Answer:

(i) specific heat

(ii) latent heat of vaporization

(iii) latent heat of fusion

Explanation:

i. Q = mcΔT; identify c.

Here, Q is heat, m is the mass, c is the specific heat and ΔT is the change in temperature.

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of substance of mass 1 kg by 1 degree C is known as the specific heat.  

ii. Q = mLvapor; identify Lvapor

Here, Q is the heat, m is the mass and L is the latent heat of vaporization.

The amount of heat required to convert the 1 kg liquid into 1 kg vapor at constant temperature.  

iii. Q = mLfusion; identify Lfusion

Here, Q is the heat, m is the mass and L is the latent heat of fusion.  

Here, Q is the heat, m is the mass and L is the latent heat of vaporization.

The amount of heat required to convert the 1 kg solid  into 1 kg liquid at constant temperature.  

(i) c is the molar heat capacity of the substance.

(ii) Lvapor is the latent heat of evaporation of the substance

(iii) Lfusion is the latent heat of fusion of the substance

All the 3 equations fall under Calorimetry.

In all the equation Q is the amount of heat required.

(i) First equation represents the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance of mass m.

                          Q = mcΔT

       here c is the molar heat capacity of the substance and ΔT is the chnage in temperature.

(ii) Second equation represents the amount of heat required to convert a substance of mass m from liquid phase to vapour phase.

                          Q = mLvapor

        here Lvapor is the latent heat of evaporation of the substance

during evaporation no change in temperature occurs.      

(iii) Third equation represents the amount of heat required to convert a substance of mass m from solid phase to liquid phase.

                          Q = mLfusion

        here Lfusion is the latent heat of fusion or melting of the substance

during fusion no change in temperature occurs.

An enclosed vessel contains 2.5g of 9b nitrogen and 13.3g of chlorine at s.T.P. Of What will be the partial pressure of the Il nitrogen if the temperature is raised to b 180C

Answers

Answer:

0.535 atm

Explanation:

Since the volume of the tank is constant, we use Gay- Lussac's law to find the pressure at 180°C.

So, P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂ where P₁ = pressure at S.T.P = 1 atm, T₁ = temperature at S.T.P = 273.15 K, P₂ = pressure of gas at 180 °C and T₂ = 180 °C = 273.15 + 180 K = 453.15 K

So, P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

P₂ = P₁T₂/T₁

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

P₂ = P₁T₂/T₁

P₂ = 1 atm × 453.15 K/273.15 K

P₂ = 1 atm × 1.66

P₂ = 1.66 atm

We now need to find the total number of moles of each gas present

number of moles of nitrogen = mass of nitrogen, m/molar mass of nitrogen molecule M

n = m/M

m = 2.5 g and M = 2 × atomic mass of nitrogen (since it is diatomic) = 2 × 14 g/mol = 28 g/mol

So, n = 2.5 g/28 g/mol

n = 0.089 mol

number of moles of chlorine, n' = mass of chlorine, m'/molar mass of chlorine molecule M'

n' = m'/M'

m' = 13.3 g and M = 2 × atomic mass of chlorine (since it is diatomic) = 2 × 35.5 g/mol = 71 g/mol

So, n' = 13.3 g/71 g/mol

n' = 0.187 mol

So, the total number of moles of gas present is n" = n + n' = 0.089 mol + 0.187 mol = 0.276 mol

So, the partial pressure due to nitrogen gas, P = mole fraction of nitrogen × pressure of gas at 180 °C

P = n/n" × P₂

P = 0.089 mol/0.276 mol × 1.66 atm

P = 0.322 × 1.66 atm

P = 0.535 atm

If the elements W, X, Y, and Z have electronegativity values of 1.0, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.5, respectively, which bond is the least polar

Answers

Answer:

XY bond is the least polar

Explanation:

Given

[tex]W = 1.0[/tex]

[tex]X = 2.0[/tex]

[tex]Y = 2.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.5[/tex]

Required

The least polar bond

First, we calculate the difference in the electronegativities

[tex]WX = X - W[/tex]

[tex]WX = 2.0 - 1.0[/tex]

[tex]WX = 1.0[/tex]

[tex]WY = Y - W[/tex]

[tex]WY =2.5 - 1.0[/tex]

[tex]WY =1.5[/tex]

[tex]WZ =Z-W[/tex]

[tex]WZ =3.5 - 1.0[/tex]

[tex]WZ =2.5[/tex]

[tex]XY = Y -X[/tex]

[tex]XY = 2.5 -2.0[/tex]

[tex]XY = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]XZ = Z -X[/tex]

[tex]XZ = 3.5 -2.0[/tex]

[tex]XZ = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]YZ = Z - Y[/tex]

[tex]YZ = 3.5 - 2.5[/tex]

[tex]YZ = 1.0[/tex]

The least of the above calculations will be the least polar.

Hence, XY is the least polar

A gas has density 2.41 g/liter at 25°C and 770 mm Hg. Calculate it's molecular mass (R = 0.0821 L atm.mol-1K-1 ​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given : Density - 2.41 g/liter  

Temperature - 25° C  

Pressure : 770 mm Hg  

R = 0.0821 L atm mol-¹K-¹

 

Find : Molecular mass of gas

Solution : Ideal gas equation with respect to density will be : PM = dRT. In the formula, P is pressure, M is molecular mass, d is density, R is gas constant and T is temperature.

Keeping the values in equation-  

Pressure : 770 mm Hg = 1 atm  

Temperature : 273 + 25 = 298 K

 

M = dRT/P  

M = (2.41*0.0821*298)/1  

M = 58.96 gram/mol

Thus, the molecular mass of gas is 58.96 gram/mol.

Which of the following statements regarding the movement of electrons during cellular respiration is true?
A. Electrons tend to move away from O2.
B. O2 is reduced when it accepts electrons and forms water.
C. The electrons release large amounts of energy each time they are transferred from one molecule to another.
D. O2 is eventually oxidized by the electrons to form water.

Answers

Answer:

B. O2 is reduced when it accepts electrons and forms water.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration water is formed when oxygen receives electrons and picks up protons at the conclusion of the electron transport chain. The electron transport chain will stop functioning if there isn't enough oxygen to receive electrons (for example, because a person isn't breathing in enough oxygen), and ATP will no longer be created by chemiosmosis. Cells can't carry out the reactions they need to function if they don't even have enough ATP, and they may perish after a long period of time.
