Answer:

Only between nonmetals

Explanation:

Covalent compounds are compounds that are formed as a result of covalent bonding between nonmetal atoms.
Covalent compounds occur only between non metals, where atoms of the nonmetals involved join to form a covalent bond as a result of sharing of electrons.
Electrons shared during the formation of covalent bond, may be from one atom involved or each atom contributing equally to the bond formation.
An example of covalent compounds include, phosphorus (v) oxide, methane, water, CO2,etc.

Many double-displacement reactions are enzyme-catalyzed via the "ping pong" mechanism, so called because the reactants appear to

zhenek [66]

Answer:

D. It will decrease by a factor of 4

Explanation:

According to the question , the equation follows :

$A+B\rightarrow C+D$

Rate law : This states the rate of reaction is directly proportional to concentration of reactants with each reactant raised to some power which may or may not be equal to the stoichiometeric coefficient.

$Rate\ \alpha [A]^{a}[B]^{b}$

$r=[A]^{a}[B]^{b}$ .................(1)

STEP": First, find out the power "a" and "b"

a+b = 3 (because it is given that the reaction follow 3rd order-kinetics)

According to question, doubling the concentration of the first reactant causes the rate to increase by a factor of 2 means,

r' = 2r if [A'] = 2[A]

Here [B] is uneffected means [B']=[B]

hence new rate =

$r'=[A']^{a}[B']^{b}$

Put the value of [A'] , [B'] and r' in the above equation:

$2r=[2A]^{a}[B]^{b}$ ...........(2)

Divide equation (1) by (2) we , get

$\frac{2r}{r}=\frac{[2A]^{2}[B]^{b}}{[A]^{a}[B]^{b}}$

$2= 2(\frac{A}{A})^{a}\times (\frac{B}{B})^{b}$

Here A and A cancel each other

B and B cancel each other

We get,

$2= 2^{a}\times 1^{b}$

1^b = 1 ( power of 1 = 1)

$2= 2^{a}$

This is possible only when a = 1

We know that : a + b = 3

1 + b = 3

b =3 -1 = 2

b = 2

Hence the rate law becomes :

$r=[A]^{a}[B]^{b}$

$r=[A]^{1}[B]^{2}$ .............(3)

Look in the question now, it is asked to calculate the concentration of [B],if cut in half

Hence

[B']=1/2[B]

Insert the value of [B'] in equation (3)

$r'=[A]^{1}[B']^{2}$

$r'=[A]^{1}(\frac{1}{2}[B])^{2}$

$r'=\frac{1}{4}[A]^{1}[B]^{2}$ ............(a)

But

$r=[A]^{a}[B]^{b}$ ..............(b)

Compare equation (a) and (b) , we get

new rate r' =

r' = 1/4 r

What is the difference between a physical and chemical change? From what I know a chemical change modifies the atoms of an objec

blsea [12.9K]

Physical change: a change in which no new substances are formed. the form of the substance is changed but not it's chemical composition (ice melting, bread toasting)

chemical change: any change that results in the formation of new chemical substances. this type of change modifies molecules and atoms by making and breaking the bonds between atoms! (iron rusting, gas burning)

so basically a physical change just changes the appearance of a substance, but a chemical change changes the makeup on a molecular level. i hope this helps you out!
