The rate law depicts the effect of concentration on reaction rate. Second mechanism 2NO(g) ⇄ N₂O₂(g) [fast], N₂O₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) [slow] is most reasonable. Thus, option b is correct.

<h3>What is rate law?</h3>

Rate law and equation give the rate at which the reaction takes place under the influence of the concentration of the reactants. The balanced chemical reaction is given as,

2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g)

The rate of the equation is given as,

rate = k [NO]² [O₂]  

In a multi-step chemical reaction, the slowest step is the rate-determining step. The second mechanism is given as,

2NO (g) → N₂O₂ (g) [fast]

N₂O₂(g) +O₂(g) → 2NO₂ (g) [slow]

Rate is given as,

rate = k [N₂O₂] [O₂]

Therefore, option b. the second mechanism is the most reasonable.

The ph3 molecule is polar. does this offer experimental proof that the molecule cannot be planar? explain.
Alex
<span>Answer: if it was planar the center of the negative forces and the center of the positive forces would be at the same place, meaning no di-poles would form so it wouldnt be polar. as it is polar it therefore cannot be planar. the neagative center(pole) is above the the positive one due to the pair of unbonded electrons.</span>

A piece of iron metal is heated to 155 degrees C and placed into a calorimeter that contains 50.0 mL of water at 18.7 degrees C.
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

D = 28.2g

Explanation:

Initial temperature of metal (T1) = 155°C

Initial Temperature of calorimeter (T2) = 18.7°C

Final temperature of solution (T3) = 26.4°C

Specific heat capacity of water (C2) = 4.184J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of metal (C1) = 0.444J/g°C

Volume of water = 50.0mL

Assuming no heat loss

Heat energy lost by metal = heat energy gain by water + calorimeter

Heat energy (Q) = MC∇T

M = mass

C = specific heat capacity

∇T = change in temperature

Mass of metal = M1

Mass of water = M2

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

Density of water = 1g/mL

Mass(M2) = 1 * 50

Mass = 50g

Heat loss by the metal = heat gain by water + calorimeter

M1C1(T1 - T3) = M2C2(T3 - T2)

M1 * 0.444 * (155 - 26.4) = 50 * 4.184 * (26.4 - 18.7)

0.444M1 * 128.6 = 209.2 * 7.7

57.0984M1 = 1610.84

M1 = 1610.84 / 57.0984

M1 = 28.21g

The mass of the metal is 28.21g
