Re: Number 10 on Kinetics Achieve

It is important to note that this is a second-order reaction and we need to find how long, in seconds, it takes for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.630 M to 0.310 M. For the second-order reaction, we use equation, 1 over the concentration of the reactant. The time is equivalent to k. This ...

Re: Question 2 Kinetics Achieve

We are provided a reaction where the reaction in A is converted to some product B. After this, the balanced equations given by A make 2 B. It is a 2 to the 1-mole ratio for the product to react. We are trying to determine the rate of change of B. Time equals 0 to 352 seconds. First, we will find the...

Re: #17 Kinetics Achieve HW

In order to answer this question, we need to set up the potential energy diagram. On the y-axis, we have potential energy and this is in the units of kJ and the x-axis shows the reaction progress. The delta H value is 24 kJ and this is a positive value. This means that is an endothermic reaction. To...

Re: Achieve #8

We are provided the rate constant per order reaction and that is k. This value is 0.0370 moles per second. We also have the initial concentration. It decreases from 0.910 M to 0.280 M. We are going to use these values to determine how we can find the time required to reduce the compound from 0.910 M...

Re: Thermodynamics vs Thermochemistry

There are a couple of differences between thermochemistry and thermodynamics. Thermodynamics relates to energy. It deals with the transformations of energy. However, thermochemistry is related to different chemical reactions rather than energy. This specifically relates to the changes in the reaction.

Re: Achieve 3.3

The chemical reaction inside the instant cold pack is endothermic since it can absorb the heat around it. Due to this reason, it will cool off the area around it. This is exactly the reason why a placing a cold pack on your skin makes you cold. Hope this helps!

Re: Achieve Question #5 week 2

You should create an ICE table with the pH, pOH, and Kb values. After this, you can determine the percent ionization by taking the ratio of OH in comparison to the original compound. Finally, you can multiply it by 100 and you will have your answer. I hope this helps!

Re: 5% Rule

The 5% is simply there to allow you to check if the approximation of the initial concentration is equal to the initial concentration due to the small value of K (under 10^-3). When it is below 5%, the approximation is appropriate.

Re: Heating curve question

It needs a substantial amount of extra heat to become a liquid to gas in contrast to a solid to a liquid. The reasoning is that it overcomes higher intermolecular forces. When transforming from a liquid to a gas, requires additional energy for the hydrogen bonds in the water molecules.

Re: Which phases to include in the K equation?

Yes, aqueous substances are included in the K equation, but pure substances are not. If the aqueous solutions were not used, then it would only measure the partial pressure and that is inaccurate.

Re: Will the value of K always be known? [ENDORSED]

No, K is not always known. As some previous students said, we can use the equilibrium concentration to calculate the value. However, we are unable to solve the problem if there isn’t a value for K or the equilibrium concentration.
