10. Consider the general form of a first order decomposition reaction. A + B with d[4] k,[A] dt a) If the rate constant obeys the Arrhenius equation with prefactor A=1012s-1, what is an upper bound on the activation energy Ea if a solution with [A]=1M is to react with initial rate of at least 10-3 M*s- at 298 K? b) If the activation energy is E, = 75 kJ/mol, how much would you have to increase the temperature in order to double this initial rate? c) From transition state theory, explain how you would know whether the change in entropy of forming the transition state ASt is positive or negative, based on the Arrhenius prefactor.
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
