The correct option is this: DECREASING THE TEMPERATURE.

During the process of chemical reaction, the reacting molecules typically move about randomly in the reacting vessels colliding with one another and with the wall of the container. The rate of movement of the reacting particles can be reduced by decreasing the temperature of the reaction. If the temperature is reduced, the particles will lose kinetic energy and thus, they will move more slowly and collide less often with one another.

If you react 156.0 g of calcium chloride with an excess NaOH, how much sodium chloride should you get?

laiz [17]

Answer:

164.3g of NaCl

Explanation:

Based on the chemical equation:

CaCl2 + 2NaOH → 2NaCl + Ca(OH)2

where 1 mole of CaCl2 reacts with 2 moles of NaOH

To solve this question we must convert the mass of CaCl2 to moles. Using the chemical equation we can find the moles of NaCl and its mass:

Moles CaCl2 -Molar mass: 110.98g/mol-

156.0g CaCl₂ * (1mol / 110.98g) = 1.4057 moles CaCl2

Moles NaCl:

1.4057 moles CaCl2 * (2mol NaCl / 1mol CaCl2) = 2.811 moles NaCl

Mass NaCl -Molar mass: 58.44g/mol-

2.811 moles NaCl * (58.44g / mol) = 164.3g of NaCl

Suppose that 25,0 mL of a gas at 725 mmHg and 298K is converted to

posledela

The new volume : 21.85 ml

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

V1=25,0 ml

P1=725 mmHg

T1=298K is converted to

T2=273'K

P2=760 mmHg atm

Required

Solution

Combined gas law :

$\tt \dfrac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}$

Input the value :

V2=(P1.V1.T2)/(P2.T1)

V2=(725 x 25 ml x 273)/(760 x 298)

V2=21.85 ml

katovenus [111]

Water combines with carbon dioxide to produce slightly acidic groundwater

that dissolves limestone and forms caves.

This is because the reaction between water and carbondioxide to form

bicarbonate ions( HCO₃⁻). The bicarbonate ions dissociate into Hydrogen

atoms thereby increasing the acidity.

The acidic environment results in the formation of acidic groundwater that

dissolves limestone and forms caves.

Which of the following reactions could be an elementary reaction? 2 NO2(g) + F2(g) → 2NO2F(g) Rate = k[NO2][F2] H2(g) + Br2(g) →

podryga [215]

Answer: The correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Explanation:

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

For the given reactions:

Equation 1: $2NO_2(g)+F_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2F(g);Rate=k[NO_2][F_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 2 + 1 = 3

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 2: $H_2(g)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2HBr(g);Rate=k[H_2][Br_2]^{1/2}$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = $1+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 3: $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 4: $NO_2(g)+CO(g)\rightarrow NO(g)+CO_2(g);Rate=k[NO_2]^2$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 2 + 0 = 2

In this equation, the order with respect to each reactant is not equal to its stoichiometric coefficient which is represented in the balanced chemical reaction. Hence, this is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$
