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.

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. !

Answer:

1.047 M

Explanation:

The given reaction:

$6Fe^{2+}_{(aq)}+Cr_2O_7^{2-}_{(aq)}+14H^+_{(aq)}\rightarrow 6Fe^{3+}_{(aq)}+2Cr^{3+}_{(aq)}+7H_2O_{(aq)}$

For dichromate :

Molarity = 0.254 M

Volume = 15.8 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 15.8 ×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of dichromate :

$Moles=0.254 \times {15.8\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of dichromate = 0.0040132 moles

1 mole of dichromate react with 6 moles of iron(II) solution

Thus,

0.0040132 moles of dichromate react with 6 × 0.0040132 moles of iron(II) solution

Moles of iron(II) solution = 0.02408 moles

Volume = 23 mL = 0.023 L

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Molarity = 0.02408 / 0.023 = 1.047 M

aivan3 [116]

Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A mixture is defined as a substance that contains two or more different substance that are physically mixed with each other.

If solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent then it is known as a homogeneous mixture.

For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.

If solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement a mixture must contain at least two different substances, is correct about mixtures.

Virty [35]

Chemical bonds between atoms in reactants undergo change during a chemical reaction.

The substance (or substances) initially involved in a chemical reaction are called reactants or reagents. Chemical reactions are usually characterized by a chemical change, and they yield one or more products, which usually have properties different from the reactants.

The correct answer between all the choices given is the last choice or letter D. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
