Answer : The initial rate of the reaction at 298 K is, $8.6\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Explanation :

The Arrhenius equation is written as:

$K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}$

Taking logarithm on both the sides, we get:

$\ln k=-\frac{Ea}{RT}+\ln A$ ............(1)

where,

k = rate constant

Ea = activation energy

T = temperature

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K.mole

A = pre-exponential factor

The equation (1) is of the form of, y = mx + c i.e, the equation of a straight line.

Thus, if we plot a graph of $\ln k$ vs $\frac{1}{T}$ then the graph shows a straight line with negative slope. That means,

Slope of the line = $-\frac{Ea}{R}$

And,

Intercept = $\ln A$

As we are given that:

Slope of the line = -982.7 = $-\frac{Ea}{R}$

Intercept = -0.0726 = $\ln A$

Now we have to calculate the value of rate constant by putting the value of slope, intercept and temperature (298K) in equation 1, we get:

$\ln k=-\frac{982.7}{298}+(-0.0726)$

$\ln k=-3.37$

$k=0.0344s^{-1}$

The value of rate constant is, $0.0344s^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the initial rate of the reaction at 298 K.

As we know that the slow step is the rate determining step. So,

The slow step reaction is,

$A+B\rightarrow C$

The expression of rate law for this reaction will be,

Rate=k[A][B]

As we are given that:

[A] = 0.500 M

[B] = 0.0500 M

k = $0.0344s^{-1}$

Now put all the given values in the rate law expression, we get:

$Rate=(0.0344)\times (0.500)\times (0.0500)$

$Rate= 8.6\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Therefore, the initial rate of the reaction at 298 K is, $8.6\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Answer from: Quest

explanation:

let the different atoms be x and y. each with four protons and same mass will be represented as follows.

mass number is number of protons + number of neutrons.

$^{m}_{4}x$ and $^{m}_4y$

since, it is given that one has a negative charge while the other is neutral. therefore, there will be increase in number of protons and the atom will be represented as follows.

$^{m}_{5}x^{-}$

according to periodic table, mass number of beryllium is 9 and it has atomic number 4 so, the atoms will be $^{9}_{5}be^{-}$ and $^{9}_{4}be$ .

the protons and neutrons will be located inside the nucleus whereas the electrons will be revolving around the nucleus.

Answer from: Quest

a electronegativity decreases beacuse the size of nucleus is bigger.
