The reaction is of order three with respect to the reactant.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The rate of a reaction of order n about a certain reactant is proportion to the concentration of that reactant raised to the n-th power. This is true only if  concentrations of any other reactants stay constant in the whole process.

In other words, Rate = constant × [Reactant]ⁿ, Rate ∝ [Reactant]ⁿ. (The symbol "∝" reads "proportional to".)

In this question,

[4 × Reactant]ⁿ ÷ [Reactant]ⁿ = 64.

In other words, 4ⁿ = 64, where n is the order of the reaction with respect to this reactant.

It might take some guesswork to find the value of n. Alternatively, n can be solved directly with a calculator using logarithms. Taking natural log of both sides:

\ln{4^n} = \ln{64}\\n\; \ln{4} = \ln{64}\\n = \frac{\ln{64}}{\ln{4}} = 3.

Evaluating \ln(64) / \ln(4) on Google or on a calculator with support for ln (the natural log) will give the value of n- no guesswork required.

n = 3. Therefore, the reaction is of order three with respect to this reactant.

To insert a thermometer into an adapter, use <u>mineral oil</u> to prepare the thermometer. Then, hold the thermometer <u>close to</u> the adapter and<u> slowly turn</u> the thermometer into the adapter.

The term "temperature" refers to a measurement of how cold or hot an actual physical object is. It is measured with a thermometer, which gives readings in Celsius, Kelvin, and Fahrenheit (°C, K, and °F).

The average kinetic energy of the particles in a given substance is often measured by temperature. A thermometer is a tool used to gauge a substance's or a body's temperature (degree of hotness or coolness). It is a bulb-shaped piece of thin glass that usually contains either coloured alcohol or mercury.

In order to get readings throughout the distillation process, a thermometer adapter is used with a temperature probe. Use mineral oil to prepare or make the thermometer suitable before inserting it into the adapter. After that, slowly insert the thermometer into the adaptor while holding it close to it.

One sound is loud and another is quieter. What must be different about these two sound waves?
tankabanditka [31]
Loudness of the sound depends on the "Amplitude" as loudness is different for two waves, their Amplitude must be different

In short, Your Answer would be "Amplitude"
