What happens as the activation energy increases?

Chemistry

When activation energy increases the kinetic energy of the colliding molecules changes.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Collision theory  </h3>
  • According to collision theory for reactions to occur, molecules of reactants should effectively collide.
  • Effective Collision of molecules of reactants depends on their orientation which enables bond breaking and formation, together with the activation energy.
<h3>Activation energy  </h3>
  • Activation energy is the minimum or the least amount of energy required by the reactants for a chemical reaction to start. It is the energy needed to activate atoms or molecules of the reactants for a chemical reaction to occur.
  • Activation energy is also called the free energy of activation.  
  • Molecules or atoms of reactants collide with each other upon attaining the activation energy to form the products.
<h3>Effect of activation energy on rate of reaction </h3>
  • Activation energy varies inversely to the rate of chemical reaction such that an increase in activation energy results to a slower rate of chemical reaction.
  • Additionally, a decrease in activation energy results to an increased reaction rate. Higher activation energy results to lack of sufficient energy required for an effective collision.

Determining the Activation Energy of a Reaction. The rate of a reaction depends on the temperature at which it is run. As the temperature increases, the molecules move faster and therefore collide more frequently. The molecules also carry more kinetic energy. <span>B) THE KINETIC ENERGY OF COLLIDING MOLECULES CHANGES

Key terms: Reset Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each are ____________ . The chemical and physical properties of two
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Enantiomers/ Isomers/ Stereoisomers/ Meso compounds/ Constitutional isomers/ Diastereomers.

Explanation:

Isomers are molecules that have the same chemical formula but have different conformation, or in its connections, or the orientation in space. Isomers have different chemical and physical properties (second blank).

The isomers that only differ by the orientation of their atoms in space are called stereoisomers (third blank).

The stereoisomers that have a chiral carbon and do not mirror images of each are called enantiomers (first blank). They can deviate the polarized light.

When a compound has two or more chiral carbons but they compensate for the deviation of the light, and the compound is optically inactive, it's called a meso compound (fourth blank).

When the isomers differ in the way the atoms are connected it's called a constitutional isomer (fifth blank).

When the molecule has more than one chiral carbon, it will have pairs of enantiomers. The isomers that aren't of the same pair are nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other and are called diastereomers (last blank).

How many grams of C6H12O6 are needed to be dissolved in water to make 100. grams of a 250. ppm solution?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

0.025 g C6H12O6

Explanation:

ppm = (g solute/ g solution)* 10^6

g solute= (ppm * g solution)/ 10^6

g solute = (250 ppm * 100 g)/10^6

g solute=0.025 g C6H12O6

How many moles in 185cm³ two moles solution​
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

4.44 moles

Explanation:

first u have to change the units into dm cube.

cm cube÷1000=dm cube

185cmcube÷1000= 0.185dm cube

24dm cube= 1 mole(formula)

0.185dm cube × 24dm cube=4.44 moles
