The reaction below virtually goes to completion because cyanide ion forms very stable complexes with Ni2+ ion:[Ni(H2O)6]2+(aq) +

4 CN-(aq) → [Ni(CN)4]2-(aq) + 6 H2O(l)At the same time, incorporation of 14C labelled cyanide ion (14CN-) is very rapid:[Ni(CN)4]2-(aq) + 4 14CN-(aq) = [Ni(14CN)4]2-(aq) + 4 CN-(aq)Which statement below is correct with regard to stability and rate of reaction?

Answer:

Option A and D are correct.

Unstable species react rapidly.

Stable species do not react rapidly.

Explanation:

The complete question is attached to this solution.

The more stable a reactant is, the less reactive it will be. A stable reactant has a very stable structure in which it will avoid any perturbations. And for a reaction to occur, the bonds in the reactant must break down to form the products. A stable reactant has very strong bonds that aren't easy to break down, hence, reactions involving very stable reactants do not proceed rapidly.

And the more unstable a reactant specie is, the more rapidly it reacts. This is why the reaction involving the less stable isotope of carbon; Carbon-14 is very rapid. It is the same reason as explained above that is responsible for this. The bond between unstable species are not strong and are easily breakable, thereby leading to a quick reaction.

Hope this Helps!!!

Eddi Din [679]

According to what is known about chemical equilibrium and Le Chatelier's principle, when you increase the amount of the reactants, the reaction will be moved to the products, this is because, the most reactants we have the most products we can produce.

From the given choices, the one that goes according to this reason is the third one: The volume of water vapor increases.

The activity series goes top to bottom, most active to least active elements, going: Li, K, Ba, Sr, Ca, Na, Mg, Mn, Zn, Fe, Cd, Co, Ni, Sn, Pb, H, Cu, Ag, Hg, Au. 

Thus, your list of metals would go from most reactive to least reactive: Li, K, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Au
