We can dictate the mechanism of the reaction by looking at the exponents of the reactants in the reaction rate equation. Since [xy] has an exponent of 1, then the reaction follows the first order reaction with respect to xy. Similarly, the reaction follows the first order with respect to z₂. Then, the overall is the sum of each of their orders which is 2.
I think the answer is the number of electrons. Hope it help :)
Answer: True
The formula of weight is w = mg, where m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity. If you want to calculate an object's weight, you need to know the two components: mass and gravity.
You only need to know the mass of the object because the acceleration of gravity is ALWAYS (assuming the object is on Earth) 9.8 m/s^2.
In a way, all of the answers could be argued for (for example: in the first option: if the scientists' opinions are understood to be "informed understanding of the causes of events"), but one of the options is the best:
Scientific laws describe specific relationships in nature without offering
an explanation.
The reason why I think this is true is that many laws are phased too short and too concise to provide comprehensive explanations, instead they describe the relationships that must hold.
One of the options is pplain false:
Scientific laws explain why natural events occur. -"Scientific laws were theories that have been tested, proven, and adopted as laws." - since they are not adopted as laws.
Barium has to give up 2 electrons to be like the nearest noble gas.
