Which statement about kinetic energy is true?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Inga [223]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It is the energy required to form a new product.

Explanation:

a) the catalyst is a substance which can alter the rate of reaction by providing an alternate pathway with lower activation energy.

so kinetic energy is not related to catalyst.

b) kinetic energy increases with increase in temperature.

c) To form a product, reactant molecules must collide with a particular energy (kinetic energy). If this energy and proper orientation is present then the reactant molecules are said to undergo effective collision giving products.

d) as explained above, the collision of reactant molecules will be affected by kinetic energy.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as the energy obtained by an object due to its motion.

In a chemical reaction, in order to form new product(s) it is necessary that the participating atoms or reactants should collide with each other. This collision can only be possible when atoms have some kinetic energy.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement it is the energy required to form a new product, is true about kinetic energy.

Describe the electron distribution in a polar-covalent bond and it's effect on the partial charges of the compound?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

In polar Covalent bonds, the electrons which are in bonded shifts towards an atom which has more valance electrons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We know if an atom takes the electron it acquires a negative charge whereas if it gives an electron it acquires a positive charge in the ionic bond. But here we are talking about covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are those in which atoms share the electron instead of completely giving off the electron. If the atoms are identical in case of covalent bond that is 2 hydrogen atoms then this type of bonding is called pure covalent bonds but if the atoms linked in covalent bonds are different then it is called polar covalent bonds.

In this, the bonding electrons will shift towards an atom which has more valence electron thereby acquiring the partial negative charges and the other atom will acquire a partial positive charge. For example, HCl. In this the Chlorine atom is having more valence electron than hydrogen atom, and hence Chlorine atom has a partial negative charge and Hydrogen atom has a partial positive charge.

Does the energy go from the surrounding to the chemicals or from the chemicals to the surround in an exothermic reaction?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
In general terms, exothermic reactions release energy, so the energy goes from the system to the surroundings.

The empirical formula of a compound is CH. At 200 degree C, 0.145 g of this compound occupies 97.2 mL at a pressure of 0.74 atm.
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The molecular formula = C_{6}H_{6}

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of compound, m = 0.145 g

Temperature = 200 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (200 + 273.15) K = 473.15 K

V = 97.2 mL = 0.0972 L

Pressure = 0.74 atm

Considering,  

n=\frac{m}{M}

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=\frac{m}{M}RT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

m is the mass of the gas

M is the molar mass of the gas

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the values in the above equation as:-

0.74\times 0.0972=\frac{0.145}{M}\times 0.0821\times 473.15

M=78.31\ g/mol

The empirical formula is = CH

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 12 + 1 = 13 g/mol

Molar mass = 78.31 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

78.31 = n × 13

⇒ n ≅ 6

The molecular formula = C_{6}H_{6}

The molarity of a 4.200 L solution is 1.230 M Na2CO3. What is the mass of Na2CO3
Lerok [7]

Answer:

547.5g

Explanation:

To get the mass, you need moles.

moles = (molarity)(Liters)

moles = (1.230M)(4.200L) = 5.166 moles Na2CO3

Now, just use stoichiometry

molar mass of Na2CO3 = 2(mass of Na) + (mass of C) + 3(mass of O)

= 2(22.9) + 12.01 + 3(16) = 105.99g/mol

5.166moles(105.99g/mol)

= 547.544

But, the measurements given had 4 significant figures, so in chemistry we write:

547.5g

A gas sample occupies a volume of 1.264 L when the temperature is 168.0 °C and the pressure is 946.6 torr. How many molecules ar
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

0.26×10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = 1.264 L

Temperature = 168°C

Pressure = 946.6 torr

Number of molecules of gas = ?

Solution:

Temperature = 168°C (168+273= 441 K)

Pressure = 946.6 torr (946.6/760 = 1.25 atm)

Now we will determine the number of moles.

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

n = PV/RT

n = 1.25  atm ×1.264 L / 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   ×441 K

n = 1.58 /36.21 /mol

n = 0.044 mol

Now we will calculate the number of molecules by using Avogadro number.

1 mol = 6.022×10²³ molecules

0.044 mol × 6.022×10²³ molecules/ 1mol

0.26×10²³ molecules
