Answer: D
Explanation:
In an inverse relationship as one increases one decreases or vice versa.
Answer:
(a) The rate of formation of K2O is 0.12 M/s.
The rate of formation of N2 is also 0.12 M/s
(b) The rate of decomposition of KNO3 is 0.24 M/s
Explanation:
(a) From the equation of reaction, the mole ratio of K2O to O2 is 2:5.
Rate of formation of O2 is 0.3 M/s
Therefore, rate of formation of K2O = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s
Also from the equation of reaction, mole ratio of N2 to O2 is 2:5.
Rate of formation of N2 = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s
(b) From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of KNO3 to O2 is 4:5.
Therefore, rate of decomposition of KNO3 = (4×0.3/5) = 0.24 M/s
When highly electronegative element like oxygen is directly attached to less electronegative element like hydrogen the electrons from less electronegative elements are attracted toward the highly electronegative element, making the less electronegative element deficient in electron density (partial positive) and a partial negative charge on more electronegative element is created. In such situation the intermolecular forces formed are dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen bond interaction like in HF.
