Fission is the division of one atom into two, and fusion is the combination of two lighter atoms into larger one. They are opposing processes and therefore very different.

Hoping that this is what you are looking for.

The reaction is:

2 NO₂ (g) + F₂ (g) ⇆  2 NO₂F (g)

The stoichiometric coefficients of the substances balance out each other to obey the Law of Definite Proportions. Now, you have to note that determining the reaction rate expression is specific to a certain type of reaction. So, this are determined empirically through doing experiments. But in chemical reaction engineering, to make things simple, you assume that the reaction is elementary. This means that the order of a reaction with respect to a certain substance follows their individual stoichiometric coefficients. What I'm saying is, the stoichiometric coefficients are the basis of our reaction rate orders. For this reaction, the rate order is 2 for NO₂, 1 for F₂ and 2 for NO₂F. When the forward and reverse reactions are in equilibrium, then it applies that:

Reaction rate of disappearance of reactants = Reaction rate of formation of products.

Therefore, we can have two reaction rate constants for this. But since the conditions manipulated are the reactant side, let's find the expression for reaction rate of disappearance of reactants.

-r = k[NO₂]²[F₂]

The negative sign before r signifies the rate of disappearance. If it were in terms of the product, that would have been positive. The term k denotes for the reaction rate constant. That is also empirical. As you can notice the stoichiometric coefficients are exponents of the concentrations of the reactants. Let's say initially, there are 1 M of NO₂ and 1 M of F₂. Then,

-r = k(1)²(1)
-r = k

Now, if we change 1 M of NO₂ by increasing it to its half, it would now be 1.5 M NO₂. Then, if we quadruple the concentration of F₂, that would be 4 M F₂. Substituting the values:

-r = k(1.5)²(4)
-r = 9k

So, as you can see the reaction rate increase by a factor of 9.

1. A solution at 25 degrees Celsius is 1.0 × 10–5 M H3O+. What is the concentration of OH– in this solution?
Kazeer [188]

1. Answer:

1.0 × 10–9 M OH–

Explanation:

pH = -Log[H+]

pOH = -Log[OH-]

But;

pH + pOH = 14

Therefore;

[H+] + [OH-] = 1.0 × 10^-14 M

Therefore;

[OH-] = 1.0 × 10^-14 M - (1.0 × 10^–5 M)

         = 1.0 × 10^-9 M OH–

2. Answer;

pH = 7.28

Explanation;

pH = -Log[H3O+]

Given;

[H3O+] = 5.2 × 10^–8 M

Therefore;

pH = - log [5.2 × 10^–8 M]

     = 7.28

The pH is 7.28

A car starts from rest at a stop light and reaches 20 m/s in 3.5 s. Determine the acceleration of the car.
igomit [66]
We know, acceleration = change in velocity / Time
a = 20 - 0  / 3.5
a = 20 / 3.5
a = 5.7 m/s2

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
