What is the expected outcome of adding a catalyst to a chemical reaction?

2 answers:

The reaction will speed up. option A is correct <span>
If the conditions are right, then the catalyst may allow a reaction to occur at a lower than normal temperature and at a faster than normal rate.
hope this helps</span>

The expected outcome would be A. The reaction will speed up after adding a catalyst to a chemical reaction.

Calculate the solubility of zn(oh)2(s) in 2.0 m naoh solution. (hint: you must take into account the formation of zn(oh)2−4, whi

Brilliant_brown [7]

When we have:

Zn(OH)2 → Zn2+ 2OH- with Ksp = 3 x 10 ^-16

and:

Zn2+ + 4OH- → Zn(OH)4 2- with Kf = 2 x 10^15

by mixing those equations together:

Zn(OH)2 + 2OH- → Zn(OH)4 2- with K = Kf *Ksp = 3 x 10^-16 * 2x10^15 =0.6

by using ICE table:

Zn(OH)2 + 2OH- → Zn(OH)4 2-

initial 2m 0

change -2X +X

Equ 2-2X X

when we assume that the solubility is X

and when K = [Zn(OH)4 2-] / [OH-]^2

0.6 = X / (2-2X)^2 by solving this equation for X

∴ X = 0.53 m

∴ the solubility of Zn(OH)2 = 0.53 M

A compound is 2.00% H by mass, 32.7% S by mass, and 65.3% O by mass. What is its empirical

Katarina [22]

Answer:

empirical formula: $H_2SO_4$

2 g H

32.7 g S

65.3 g O

Explanation:

Like the problem said, the first thing we can do is calculate the mass of each of the 3 elements in a 100-gram sample:

- 2.00% * 100g = 2 g H

- 32.7% * 100g = 32.7 g S

- 65.3% * 100g = 65.3 g O

Now we need to find the empirical formula from these. To do so, convert all of those masses into moles by using the molar mass for each element:

- the molar mass of H is 1.01 g/mol

- the molar mass of S is 32.06 g/mol

- the molar mass of O is 16 g/mol

2 g H ÷ 1.01 g/mol = 1.98 mol H

32.7 g S ÷ 32.06 g/mol = 1.02 mol S

65.3 g O ÷ 16 g/mol = 4.08 mol O

Our ratio of H : S : O is now:

1.98 mol : 1.02 mol : 4.08 mol

Divide them all by the smallest number, which is 1.02:

1.98/1.02 : 1.02/1.02 : 4.08/1.02

1.94 : 1 : 4

1.94 ≈ 2

So:

2 : 1 : 4

Thus, the empirical formula is: $H_2SO_4$ .

Under which class of substitution reaction does this reaction appear to fall

liberstina [14]

This reaction is most likely to fall under SN2 because the thing called carbonication does not occur in SN1. The carbon forms a partial bond with the nucleophile during the intermediate phase and the leaving group. So for this question the reaction will fall under SN2.

1. What do producers do, and what is another name for them?

Neko [114]

Producers are the foundation of every food web in every ecosystem—they occupy what is called the first tropic level of the food web. The second trophic level consists of primary consumers—the herbivores, or animals that eat plants. At the top level are secondary consumers—the carnivores and omnivores who eat the primary consumers. Ultimately, decomposers break down dead organisms, returning vital nutrients to the soil, and restarting the cycle. Another name for producers is autotrophs, which means “self-nourishers.” There are two kinds of autotrophs. The most common are photoautotrophs—producers that carry out photosynthesis. Trees, grasses, and shrubs are the most important terrestrial photoautotrophs. In most aquatic ecosystems, including lakes and oceans, algae are the most important photoautotrophs.
