Answer : Option 2) providing an alternate reaction pathway that has a lower activation energy


Explanation : When a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction it increases the rate of reaction by lowering the energy of activation. It provides an alternate pathway for a reaction to proceed with a lower Ea energy. Usually a catalyst never gets consumed in the reaction process. It will appear in the reaction mechanism steps but not in the overall reaction like reactants and products.

Answer:

D. C > B >A

Hope it helps!

Explanation:

From strongest to weakest, the intermolecular forces rank in the following way:

Strongest: Hydrogen bonding. This occurs when compounds contain #"O"-"H"# , #"N"-"H"# , or #"F"-"H"# bonds. ...

Less strong: Dipole-dipole forces. ...

Weakest: London Dispersion Forces.

One method for preparing pure iron from Fe2O3 is by reaction with carbon monoxide.Fe2O3(s)+CO(g)→Fe(s)+CO2(g) How many moles of
larisa [96]

Answer:

The 2292 moles of CO are needed to react completely with 122 Kg of Fe₂O₃.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 122 Kg ( 122×1000 =  122000 g)

Moles of CO = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO  → 2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of  Fe₂O₃:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 122000 g /159.69 g/mol

Number of moles = 764 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Fe₂O₃ with CO.

                               Fe₂O₃            :            CO  

                                  1                  :             3

                               764                :             3×764  =2292 mol

The 2292 moles of CO are needed to react completely with 122 Kg of Fe₂O₃.

How did scientists solve the nitrogen problem?
taurus [48]

Unfortunately, we have not fully solved the 'nitrogen problem'. To do this, we must halve the amount of nitrogen we dump into the environment by mid-century or our ecosystems will face epidemics of toxic tides, lifeless rivers, and dead oceans. And that to do that will require, among other things, almost doubling the efficiency of nitrogen use on the world’s farms.

How to figure out which melting point would have the lowest melting point ?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

That would be helium, with a melting point of 0.95 K (-272.20 °C)—although this happens only under considerable pressure (~25 atmospheres). At ordinary pressure, helium would remain liquid even if it could be chilled to absolute zero.
