Why does a reaction involving a catalyst finally stop

Chemistry

Answer:

Explanation:

Catalysis is a process that accelerates chemical reactions due to molecules called catalysts, which provide ways to reach products that require less energy.

A catalyst intervenes in the reaction mechanism, but is not consumed. This means that the catalyst participates in some stage of the reaction, but then regenerates.

In addition, a catalyst is used in a small amount: a minimum mole percentage, with respect to reagents, is usually required to observe an increase in velocity.

There are three types of catalysis:

  • Homogeneous: the catalyst is present in the same phase as the species that react.
  • Heterogeneous: the catalyst and reagents are in a different phase.
  • Enzyme: occurs only in living beings, and in these cases the catalysts are enzymes.

The absence of a catalyst can make the reaction so slow that it never occurs. Therefore, when the catalyst of a reaction is removed, the reaction may stop.

<span>When the catalyst is a reaction is removed by the reaction, this reaction will stop as there won't be any agent causing it anymore. !</span>

Balance the following redox reaction by inserting the appropriate coefficients. SO4^2- + NH3 = SO3^2- + H2O + N2
Harlamova29_29 [7]

SO₄²⁻  +NH₃  →   SO₃²⁻ + H₂O  +N₂

The  balanced  of  the above  redox reaction   is as below

3SO₄²⁻ + 2NH₃   →  3SO₃²⁻  + 3 H₂O  + N₂


 Explanation

According   to the law of mass conservation the  number  of atoms  in the reactant side  must  be equal to number of atoms in product side.

Inserting coefficient 3 in front of SO₄² , 2  in front  of NH₃, 3 in front  of SO₃²⁻  and 3 in front  of H₂O balance the equation above. This  is  because  the number  of atoms  are equal in both side.

for example there are 2 atoms of N in both side of the reaction.

Write down the compounds that does not have an alpha hydrogen.
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

However, an alpha hydrogen is the hydrogen that is found on the alpha, α-carbon in an organic molecule. Alpha carbon is referred to the first carbon that is attached to a functional group. Generally, compounds that do not have alpha carbon do not have alpha hydrogen. For example, first member of all functional groups do not usually have alpha carbon and hence do not have alpha hydrogen.

Also, Alkanes, alkenes and alkynes do not have also

A reaction is started with both reactants and products and proceeds in the reverse direction to reach equilibrium. Which of the
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

A) Yes. The reaction reaches equilibrium when the rate of reaction of the reverse reaction is equal to the rate of the forward reaction , then the only cause for the reverse reaction to be favoured is that the initial rate of the reverse was greater than the forward one.

B) No. The rate constant of the reverse reaction can be greater than the forward one  but the rate also depends on concentrations, thus a reverse reaction with greater rate constant can result in the net reaction proceeding in the forward reaction, the reverse reaction or be at equilibrium depending on the concentrations or reactants and products

C) No. A lower activation energy means a higher rate constant , but a higher rate constant does not mean that the net reaction will proceed to the reactants ( see point B)

D) No. The energy changes determine conditions under thermodynamic equilibrium and therefore the net direction of the reaction will depend on the temperature and concentrations of reactants and products with respect to the equilibrium conditions.
