What does the concentration of reactants to affect the reaction rate

1 answer:

6 0

Higher concentrations of reactants = More collisions between molecules = More possible reactions between the molecules = Higher reaction rate

<h3>What is concentration?</h3>

A solution is made up of two components, solute and solvent. In chemistry, we define the concentration of solution as the amount of solute dissolved in the solution.

Increasing the concentration of reactants generally increases the rate of reaction because more of the reacting molecules or ions are present to form the reaction products. This is especially true when concentrations are low and few molecules or ions are reacting.

Hence, Higher concentrations of reactants = More collisions between molecules = More possible reactions between the molecules = Higher reaction rate.

Why do people say air is a poor conductor , but isn't conduction happens in solid?

Mazyrski [523]

Explanation:

It is mainly the very low density of gases that make them bad conductors of heat. In liquids and solids atoms and molecules are densely packed and transfer of energy has much smaller distances to happen.

Why is carbon dioxide nonpolar?

vovikov84 [41]

CO2<span> is a linear molecule and the Oxygen (O) atoms on each end are symmetrical. Polarity results from an unequal sharing of valence electrons. Because of this symmetry there is no region of unequal sharing and </span>CO2<span> is a</span>nonpolar<span> molecule</span>

How can scientists use stoichiometry to ensure that commercial products contain the components that manufacturers claim they do?

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

I know you have been waiting awhile for this question to be answered :)

Stoichiometry is used in industry quite often to determine the amount of materials required to produce the desired amount of products in a given useful equation. Each one of these products requires stoichiometry. There would be no products from these industries without chemical stoichiometry.

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps :D

Sorry you had to wait so long :(

A neutral atom has 8 electrons and 8 neutrons. Which of the following correctly represents the atom? A) carbon-16 B) oxygen-16 C

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table. This means that oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons. In order to get the number of neutrons you take the atomic weight in this case 15.9999~16 and you subtract it by the number of protons (16-8).
