Chemistry
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C)We cannot be sure unless we find out its boiling point.

Explanation:

I will like to clearly state that simply comparing two compounds will not tell us exactly which one will be a liquid, solid or gas at room temperature.

If I want to determine whether an unknown substance will be a liquid at room temperature, I will have to measure its boiling point. If the boiling point is above room temperature, and the melting point is below room temperature, it’s a liquid. If the boiling point of the unknown substance is below room temperature, it is a gas.

This confirms that we cannot conclude on the state of matter in which a compound exists unless we know something about its boiling point, not by inspecting the properties of neighbouring compounds in the same homologous series

Which of these statements is not true about chemical reaction rates
grin007 [14]

Answer: The statement (B) is not true about chemical reactions.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction rate is affected by the several factors few of which are temperature, concentration of reactants, surface area etc.

In a chemical reaction, if temperature is increased then the rate of reaction will increase because it will increase the average kinetic energy of the reactant molecules. Thus, large number of molecules will have minimum energy required for an effective collision.

It is known that increasing the amount of reactants will increase the rate of reaction.

Therefore, rate of reaction will change if concentration or temperature is changed.

Hence, the statement (B) is not true about chemical reactions.
