Consider two gases, A and B, are in a container at room temperature. What effect will the following changes have on the rate of
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

B: increase.

Explanation:

When we are considering two gases A and B in a container at room temperature .

We have to find the change on  rate of reaction when the number of molecules of gases A is doubled

Let [A]=a and [B]=b

A+B\rightarrow product

Rate of reaction

R_1=k[A][B]=kab

We know that concentration is increases with increase in number of moles

When the number of molecules of gases A is doubled then concentration of gases A increases.

Therefore ,[A]=2a

Rate of reaction

R_2=k(2a)(b)=2kab

R_2=2R_1

Hence, the rate of reaction is  2 times the initial rate of reaction.Therefore, the rate of reaction will increase when the number of molecules of gases A is doubled.

Answer: B: increase.

Use the information below to explain why the atomic radius decreases down a group.
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Detail is given below

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

In A we can see that there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N and distance is 0.10 nm

In B we can see that negative charge is further away from nucleus because of greater distance thus force of attraction will be less. 0.58×10⁻⁸ N

In C this distance further increases and force also goes in decreasing 0.26×10⁻⁸ N.

kramer

Answer:

Extensive Properties

Explanation:

A physical property that will change if the amount of matter changes. Change in which the matter's physical appearance is altered, but composition remains unchanged. Solid is distinguished by a fixed structure. Its shape and volume do not change.
