Are The Reactions Of Ordinary Molecular Hydrogen Slow Or Rapid ? Why ?

1 answer:

4 0

In nature reactions of ordinary molecular hydrogen are slow since it's a diatomic molecule whose atoms are held together by very strong covalent bonds.The reaction rate of hydrogen varies depending on temperature and the properties of the reactants, for instance under high temperatures above 500°C hydrogen reacts vigorously and with fluorine it reacts explosively even under low temperatures

Explain what is meant by the term "excited state" as it applies to an electron. Is an electron in an excited state higher or low

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Excited state of an electron is the state attained by an electron after it has absorbed energy and it moves further from the nucleus.

an electron is at higher energy when excited and at lower energy when at ground state.

an excited electron is less stable due to the decrease in the nuclear force of attraction and the grounded electron is more stable due to it's close distance to the nucleus.

Two common methods to generate an aldehyde is by oxidation of an alcohol and through ozonolysis.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a. True.

Explanation:

Only primary and secondary alcohols can oxidise to give an aldehyde. But a weak oxidizing agent must be used to prevent formation of a carboxylic acid or ketone.

weak oxidizing agents: Chromyl chloride, silver/oxygen/500°C
