A free-radical substitution reaction is likely to be responsible for the observations. The reaction mechanism of a reaction like this can be grouped into three phases:
- Initiation; the "light" on the mixture deliver sufficient amount of energy such that the halogen molecules undergo homologous fission. It typically takes ultraviolet radiation to initiate fissions of the bonds.
- Propagation; free radicals react with molecules to produce new free radicals and molecules.
- Termination; two free radicals combine and form covalent bonds to produce stable molecules. Note that it is possible for two carbon-containing free-radicals to combine, leading to the production of trace amounts of long carbon chains in the product.

Answer:
C) It will accelerate.
Explanation:
According to Newton’s second law of motion, when an object is acted on by an unbalanced force, it will accelerate.
An unbalanced force will change the speed or direction (or both) of an object. A change in speed and/or direction is acceleration.
A) is wrong. The object will stop moving only if there is a balanced force in the opposite direction.
B) is wrong. The object will decrease speed only if the unbalanced force has a component opposite to the direction of motion.
d) is wrong. The object will increase speed only if the unbalanced force has a component in the direction of motion.
<span>Hydrogen bonds are
approximately 5% of the bond strength of covalent bonds, for example (C-C or C-H
bonds).
Hydrogen bonds strength in water is approximately 20
kJ/mol, strenght of carbon-carbon bond is approximately 350 kJ/mol
and strengh of carbon-hydrogen bond is approximately 340 kJ/mol.
20 kJ/350 kJ = 0,057 = 5,7 %.</span>
Answer:
1.20atm
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Partial pressure of gas 1 = 0.35atm
Partial pressure of gas 2 = 0.20atm
Partial pressure of gas 3 = 0.65atm
Unknown:
Total pressure of the gas mixture = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we need to recall and understand the Dalton's law of partial pressure.
Dalton's law of partial pressure states that "the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of the constituent gases".
Total pressure =Pressure of gas(1 + 2 + 3)
The partial pressure is the pressure a gas would exert if it alone occupied the volume of the gas mixture.
Now we substitute;
Total pressure = (0.35 + 0.20 + 0.65)atm = 1.20atm
