Water is the only common substance that when you freeze it, it's volume INCREASES.

When the pipe originally held the "all full" volume and the the water expanded, it put a tremendous amount of pressure on the pipe. Enough pressure and the pipe would burst.

Choose the options below that are true.
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The options <u>(A) -</u>The rate law for a given reaction can be determined from a knowledge of the rate-determining step in that reaction's mechanism.  and <u>(C) </u>-The rate laws of bimolecular elementary reactions are second order overall ,<u>is true.</u>

Explanation:

(A) -The rate law can only be calculated from the reaction's slowest or rate-determining phase, according to the first sentence.

(B) -The second statement is not entirely right, since we cannot evaluate an accurate rate law by simply looking at the net equation. It must be decided by experimentation.

(C) -Since there are two reactants, the third statement is correct: most bimolecular reactions are second order overall.

(D)-The fourth argument is incorrect. We must track the rates of and elementary phase that is following the reaction in order to determine the rate.

<u>Therefore , the first and third statement is true.</u>

If 20 grams of N2 react completely with H2 , how many moles of NH3 are produced? Show Work
Maslowich
This is the balanced eq
N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3
first you need to find mole of N2 by using
mol = mass ÷ molar mass.
mol N2= 20g ÷ (14.01×2)g/mol
=0.7138mol
then look at the coefficient between H2 and NH3.
it is N2:NH3
1:2
0.7138:0.7138×2
0.7138:1.4276 moles
moles of NH3 = 1.4276 moles
