Answer:
3718.628 kPa.
Explanation:
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = ??? atm).
V is the volume of the gas in L (V = 2.0 L).
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = 3.0 mol).
R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),
T is the temperature of the gas in K (T = 298.0 K).
∴ P = nRT/V = (3.0 mol)(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(298.0 K)/(2.0 L) = 36.7 atm.
∵ 1.0 atm = 101.325 kPa.
∴ P = (36.7 atm)(101.325 kPa/1.0 atm) = 3718.628 kPa.
Explanation:
A catalyst lowers the activation energy of a reaction allowing them to proceed faster than they would naturally. Activation energy is the free energy that is required to be input in the reactant side to activate them to the transition state after which the reaction proceeds spontaneously to products.
An example of a catalyst is platinum, that is put in the exhaust of cars, to help convert carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide before it is emitted into the air.
Answer: they lower these activation required for the reactions to take place.
