Can't help because APPARENTLY there is a picture that goes along with the questions. Post it and I can help.
Heating the reaction flask on a hot plate is an example of supplying activation energy to begin a reaction.
Explanation:
<u>Definition:</u>
Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to start a particular chemical reaction.
For example: When hydrogen and oxygen are mixed together it does not immediately start the reaction to form water. So, to start the reaction a small electric spark is provided or it is heated to provide some energy. This energy causes the molecules of hydrogen and water to react, thus producing even more molecules to react and finally water is formed.
Here the electric spark or the heat provided is the activation energy.
Answer: the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.
Explanation:
According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures which each individual gas would exert if it were confined alone in the volume occupied by the mixture.
Hence, Ptotal = P1+ P2
where Ptotal is the total pressure
P1 and P2 are the partial pressures exerted seperately by the individual gases 1 and 2 that make up the mixture.
I think the correct answer is the first option. It has nonpolar bonds and a symmetrical structure. The structure of a BF3 molecule shows a symmetrical trigonal geometry. The net dipole moment of the molecule is zero therefore it is polar.
They'd observe any new substances or new color, and temp. that is irreversible.
