Answer:
Sodium reacts with the oxygen in air. It reacts vigorously with oxygen and the moisture that is already present in the air and thus catches fire.
Answer:
(slow)xy2+z→xy2z (fast) c step1:step2:xy2+z2→xy2z2
Explanation:
Step1: xy2+z2→xy2z2 (slow)
Step2: xy2z2→xy2z+z (fast)
2XY 2 + Z 2 → 2XY 2 Z
Rate= k[xy2][z2]
When the two elementary steps are summed up, the result is equivalent to the stoichiometric equation. Hence, this mechanism is acceptable. The order of both elementary steps is 2, which is ‘≤3’; this also makes this mechanism acceptable. Furthermore, the rate equation aligns with the experimentally determined rate equation, and this also makes this mechanism acceptable. Therefore, since all the three rules have been observed, this mechanism is possible.
Answer:- The direction of the polarity of the indicated bond is from carbon to oxygen.
Explanations:- There are two types of covalent compounds, polar and non polar. If the bond is between two same atoms for example, H-H, Cl-Cl etc then the bond is non polar. If the bond is between two different atoms then the bond would be polar. The direction of the polarity is from loss electron negative atom to more electron negative atom.
Oxygen is more electron negative than carbon. So, being more electron negative, the bonding electrons are more towards oxygen and it cases partial negative charge on oxygen and partial positive charge on carbon. The direction of the polarity is from less electron negative carbon to more electron negative oxygen.
It is shown in the diagram below:
Answer:
Atoms are often more stable when bonded to other atoms
Explanation:
Like for example let's say ionic bonds..... Since one atom has to lose specific electrons to be stable and the other needs the electrons from the other atom to be stable.....
