I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The Greeks were the first to use the term atom. In 450 BCE, Democritus coined the term átomos which means "uncuttable" or "the smallest indivisible particle of matter".
molarity of a solution means mols per liter.
First, you need to convert 23 grams on NaCl into mols. 23g divided by molar mass (58.44g/mol) which gives you .394 mols.
Now, you need to convert 500ml to L which moves the decimal three places to the left, giving you .500L of solution.
Finally, divide the mols over solution to get .787M
Alkaline earth metals are metals of group two. They are divalent metals and they have a highly negative reduction potential hence the metals are mostly extracted by electrolysis.
They are highly reactive metals. They react with water but do so less readily than alkali earth metals.
Owing to their high reactivity, they are seldom found free in nature. They always occur in combined state with other highly reactive nonmetals.
Answer:
e) The activation energy of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction.
Explanation:
- Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required by the reactants to start a reaction.
- An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat energy to the surrounding while an endothermic reactions is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding.
- <em><u>In reversible reactions, when the forward reaction is exothermic it means the reverse reaction will be endothermic, therefore the reverse reaction will have a higher activation energy than the forward reaction.</u></em> The activation energy of the reverse reaction will be the sum of the enthalpy and the activation energy of the forward reaction.
