A chemist finds that when platinum is added to a reaction, the reaction speeds up. He thinks the platinum may be acting as a cat
alyst. What measurement should the chemist make to determine whether it is a catalyst? Measure the mass of the platinum before and after the reaction.
Measure the temperature of the solution before and after the reaction.
Measure the change in volume of the solution.
Measure the amount of gas released by the reaction.
Measure the mass of the platinum before and after the reaction as if it is acting as a catalyst the mass of platinum will remain unchanged as catalyst do not consume themselves in reaction
A substance that does not get consumed in a chemical reaction and helps in increasing rate of the reaction by lowering the activation energy is known as a catalyst.
Hence, when the chemist finds that reaction speeds up when platinum is added into the reaction then the chemist must calculate or measure the mass of platinum before and after the completion of reaction.
This is because if there occurs change in the mass of platinum then it means that platinum is not acting as a catalyst in the reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that chemist must measure the mass of the platinum to determine whether it is a catalyst.
Atoms have no electric charge because the protons and electrons "cancel out" each others charges. Neutrons have no charge. What is the atomic number of an element? The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom's nucleus.
You have to use avagados number... so toy take your starting number and multiple by 1/avagados number which is like 6.002^23 and that will equal your number of males... avagado always associates with moles... look up that exact number though bc I cant remember it
