Answer:

B)Lower the temperature of the reaction to 250 K.

Explanation:

Option B is correct. Lowering the temperature will decrease the kinetic energy of the gas molecules decreasing the frequency of collision and the rate of the reaction.

Option A is incorrect. Increasing the moles or the number of gas molecules of A and B will bring the gas molecules closer to each other, thus increasing the frequency of collision and the rate of the reaction.  

Option C is incorrect. Compressing the gas into a small volume will bring the gas molecules closer to each other, thus increasing the frequency of collision and the rate of the reaction.  

Option D is incorrect. A catalyst works by lowering the activation energy and thus increasing the frequency and orientation of the collision between gas molecules and thus increasing the rate of the reaction.

Choice B I think, because if the temperature decreases the particles move slower due to less kinetic energy, and thus won't collide as frequently.

I suggest you to go with C !! it is absolutely wrong sentence !!

increasing the gas particles will increase the collision between them so !!

your answer is C !!

In each of the following sets of elements, which one will be least likely to gain or lose electrons?
klasskru [66]
1. The reactivity among the alkali metals increases as you go down the group due to the decrease in the effective nuclear charge from the increased shielding by the greater number of electrons. The greater the atomic number, the weaker the hold on the valence electron the nucleus has, and the more easily the element can lose the electron. Conversely, the lower the atomic number, the greater pull the nucleus has on the valence electron, and the less readily would the element be able to lose the electron (relatively speaking). Thus, in the first set comprising group I elements, sodium (Na) would be the least likely to lose its valence electron (and, for that matter, its core electrons).

2. The elements in this set are the group II alkaline earth metals, and they follow the same trend as the alkali metals. Of the elements here, beryllium (Be) would have the highest effective nuclear charge, and so it would be the least likely to lose its valence electrons. In fact, beryllium has a tendency not to lose (or gain) electrons, i.e., ionize, at all; it is unique among its congeners in that it tends to form covalent bonds.

3. While the alkali and alkaline earth metals would lose electrons to attain a noble gas configuration, the group VIIA halogens, as we have here, would need to gain a valence electron for an full octet. The trends in the group I and II elements are turned on their head for the halogens: The smaller the atomic number, the less shielding, and so the greater the pull by the nucleus to gain a valence electron. And as the atomic number increases (such as when you go down the group), the more shielding there is, the weaker the effective nuclear charge, and the lesser the tendency to gain a valence electron. Bromine (Br) has the largest atomic number among the halogens in this set, so an electron would feel the smallest pull from a bromine atom; bromine would thus be the least likely here to gain a valence electron.

4. The pattern for the elements in this set (the group VI chalcogens) generally follows that of the halogens. The greater the atomic number, the weaker the pull of the nucleus, and so the lesser the tendency to gain electrons. Tellurium (Te) has the highest atomic number among the elements in the set, and so it would be the least likely to gain electrons.

How do scientist communicate the results of an investigation?​
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

scientists often communicate their research results in three general ways:

1) One is to publish their results in peer-reviewed journals that can be ready by other scientists.

2) Two is to present their results at national and international conferences where other scientists can listen to presentations

Is there any organism on the food web that could completely die out that would have no impact on other organisms? Why or why not
andrew11 [14]
Yes because obviously some other organism lives off eating that organism so if they die off the other organisms will be affected heavily
