Why does every chemical reaction require a certain amount of activation energy

Chemistry

attashe74 [19]3 years ago
5 0

Every chemical reaction requires a minimum amount of energy to undergo reaction.

The total energy required is Threshold energy. The chemicals have some internal energy and they require some extra energy which is known as activation energy.

The reaction occurs when two molecules or atoms come closer to each other and for this they need kinetic energy.

Now for an effective collision the two molecules or atoms should collide with a minimum amount of energy so that they may undergo reaction so again they need some energy

These kinetic energy and energy for effective collision is actually called as activation energy.

Anton [14]

Answer:

Acetone and water is immiscible

Acetone and hexane is miscible

Explanation:

Acetone with the chemical formula (CH3)2CO, is a nonpolar organic liquid that will mix easily. Hexane, an aliphatic hydrocarbon with 6 carbon atoms represented as C6H14 is also nonpolar. Thus, acetone and hexane would mixed completely to form a clear solution in the test tube.

On the other hand, acetone and water is immiscible (do not mix) since water, H2O, is a polar compound. And polar compounds do not react or dissolve nonpolar compounds (acetone). Usually, a mixture of acetone and water will be seen to form two distinct layers in the test tube.

What type of reaction is:
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Combustion

Explanation:

Chemical reaction

                 2C₄H₁₀  +  13 O₂  ⇒   8 CO₂  +  10 H₂O

A combustion reaction is a chemical reaction in which the reactants are always a molecule with carbon (organic molecule) and oxygen (O₂), and the products are always carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O).

Conclusion

The chemical reaction of this problem is combustion
