Unburned hydrocarbon on reacting with oxygen undergoes combustion reaction. However, the activation energy of this reaction is significantly high. When a catalyst like Pd is added to the reaction system, it provides active sites for the reaction to occur. It acts are a heterogeneous catalyst. It is pertinent of note that catalyst is refereed as heterogeneous, when it exist in different phase as compared to reactant and products. In present case, reactants and products are in gas phase, while catalyst is in solid phase. Due to availability of larger surface area at active site of Pd, activation energy of reaction decreases and decrease in activation energy favors higher reaction rates.
Increased density decreases the speed of sound in a medium. While increased density can mean increased rigidity, or stiffness, it is not always the case. Greater density can be due to each molecule or atom having more momentum, and being slower to respond to the vibration of its neighbor.
The main difference between a square and a trapezoid is that a square has two pairs of parallel sides, while a trapezoid only has one
Answer:
B) K⁺, Sr²⁺ , O²⁻
Explanation:
Potassium is present in group one. It is alkali metal and have one valance electron.Potassium need to lose its one valance electron and form cation to get complete octet.
That's why it shows K⁺.
Sr is alkaline earth metal. It is present in group two. It has two valance electrons. Strontium needed to lose its two valance electrons and get stable electronic configuration.
When it loses its two valance electrons it shows cation with charge of +2.
Sr²⁺
Oxygen is present in group 16. It has sex valance electrons. It needed two more electrons to complete the octet. That's why oxygen gain two electron and form anion with a charge of -2.
O²⁻
Answer:
2 C Atoms
Explanation:
When you have coefficient of 2 next to a compound element, it indicates there are 2 of each compound element. In the compound element, there is one C Atom, and 2×1 is 2.
