Answer:

Mo(CO)5 is the intermediate in this reaction mechanism.

Explanation:

The reaction mechanism describes the sequence of elementary reactions that must occur to go from reactants to products. Reaction intermediates are formed in one step and then consumed in a later step of the reaction mechanism.

In this reaction mechanism, Mo(CO)5 is the product of 1st reaction and then it is used as a reactant in 2nd reaction. So, Mo(CO)5 is the reaction intermediates.

The overall balanced equation would be,

Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3) ↔ CO + Mo(CO)5 +  P(CH3)3

Answer: The statement, average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container A because its particles move faster is correct.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy obtained due to the motion of an object or substance.

K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

where,

T = temperature

This means that kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

So, when heat is provided to container A then its molecules will start to move rapidly from one place to another which will cause more collisions between the atoms.

Hence, average kinetic energy will be more in container A.

Whereas container B is placed at room temperature which is low than that in container A. So, molecules in container B will move at almost same speed and therefore, specific collisions will be there. So, average kinetic energy in container B will be less than that in container A.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container A because its particles move faster is correct.

A4 kg object is being pulled to the east by a 6 N force. What is the object's<br> acceleration?
Dahasolnce [82]

1.5 ms⁻²

Explanation:

We understand that Force is also given as mass * acceleration;

F = Ma

If force is 6N and the mass is 4kg of the object, the a can be evaluated as follows;

6 = 4a

6/4 = a

1.5 = a

= 1.5m/s²

A metal sample weighing 129.00 grams and at a temperature of 97.8 degrees Celsius was placed in 45.00 grams of water in a calori
Nitella [24]

Answer : The specific heat of metal is 0.481J/g^oC.

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of metal = ?

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of metal = 129.00 g

m_2 = mass of water = 45.00 g

T_f = final temperature = 39.6^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of metal = 97.8^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 20.4^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

129.00g\times c_1\times (39.6-97.8)^oC=-45.00g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (39.6-20.4)^oC

c_1=0.481J/g^oC

Therefore, the specific heat of metal is 0.481J/g^oC.

What principal quantum number refers to:
docker41 [41]
The principle quantum number "n" represents the relative overall energy of each orbital, and the energy of each orbital increases as the distance from the nucleus increases. The sets of orbitals with the same "n" value are often referred to as electron shells or energy levels.
