<span>The rate of reaction may be expressed as a unit of quantity divided by a unit of time. The only expression that has a quantity divided by time is the first one mL / s (i.e. milliliter per second), so the answer is the first option, mL/s.</span><span />

Answer: mL / s

Explanation:

1) The rate of reaction is a speed. It is defined as the change in amount per time unit.

2) In form of equation reaction rate = Δ amount / time

3) Usually, it is more interesting to express the reaction rate in terms of the change of concentration, which is

reaction rate = Δ concentration / time

In those cases, the concentration is expressed in molar units per liter, so the rate is expressed as:

M / s = [mole/liter] / s

Which is what we usually find, but it is not mandatory.

4) So, other units can be used, like moles or volume (even pressure) to express the amount of a spices.

5) That is why rate of reation can be expressed as mL / s (mililiters per second).

zloy xaker [14]

Explanation:

Expression for the $v_{rms}$ speed is as follows.

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}$

where, $v_{rms}$ = root mean square speed

k = Boltzmann constant

T = temperature

M = molecular mass

As the molecular weight of oxygen is 0.031 kg/mol and R = 8.314 J/mol K. Hence, we will calculate the value of $v_{rms}$ as follows.

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{3 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 309.02 K}{0.031 kg/mol}}$

= 498.5 m/s

Hence, $v_{rms}$ for oxygen atom is 498.5 m/s.

For nitrogen atom, the molecular weight is 0.028 kg/mol. Hence, we will calculate its $v_{rms}$ speed as follows.

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{3 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 309.92 K}{0.028 kg/mol}}$

= 524.5 m/s

Therefore, $v_{rms}$ speed for nitrogen is 524.5 m/s.

Answer:

Explanation: A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Molecular compounds are named with the first element first and then the second element by using the stem of the element name plus the suffix -ide. Numerical prefixes are used to specify the number of atoms in a molecule

An atom has 11 protons, 10 electrons and 13 neutrons. What is the<br> charge for this atom?

Aliun [14]

Answer:

<h3>the charge is +1 </h3>

Explanation:

<h3>as we know nutral atom have equal number of protons and electrons</h3><h3>from the give this element have 11 protons so if it is nutral it must have 11 electrons,but in the question this atom is charged this means it gains or losts certain amount of electrons , this atom has 11 proton and 10 electron from this we can understand this atom dicreases by 1 from its proton, this means it losts one electron .</h3><h3>when an atom lostes electron it's charge become positive with the number of electrons it lostes .</h3><h3>this atom lost 1 electron there fore it have +1 charge and become ion called cathion</h3>

How many neon atoms are contained in (7.27x10^2) grams of neon?

statuscvo [17]

Answer: 2.19x10^25 atoms

Explanation:

Molar Mass of Neon = 20g/mol

1mole(20g) of Neon contains 6.02x10^23 atoms.

Therefore, 7.27x10^2g of Neon will contain x atoms i.e

X atoms = (7.27x10^2x6.02x10^23)/20 = 2.19x10^25 atoms
