Explanation:

As it is given that two gases A and B are mixed together and kept in a container with constant volume.

Also, kinetic energy of molecules is directly related to temperature as follows.

                K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

As kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature. So, when there will be decrease in temperature then kinetic energy of molecules will also decrease leading to less number of collisions between the molecules.

Hence, there will be decrease in rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that when temperature is decreased at a constant volume then rate of reaction will also decrease.

The effect that the following changes have on the rate of the reaction between the gases A and B in a container when the temperature is decreased at a constant volume will decrease because the molecules of A and B are ineracting very slowly due to the decrease in temperature which results to the decrease in kinetic energy.

During cooling, the kinetic energy of the molecules falls. Why does this happen?
katrin [286]

<span>During cooling, the kinetic energy of the molecules falls, be</span>cause, when cooling a substace, the particles (molecules) slow down.


The kinetic energy is related to the speed, such that the lower speed the lower kinetic energy.


Particles can translate and vibrate, in the case of gases and liquids, and only vibrate (in the case of solids).


As a substance is cooled the particles get closer and the motion (translation and vibration), slows down. You can see by the equation of the kinetic energy (KE):


KE = [1/2]mass×(speed)² that as the speed is lower the KE will also be lower.


Additionally, when the cooling does not drive a change of phase (gas to liquid, liquid to solid, or solid to gas), it drives a decrease on temperature. In this case you should know that the temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy: the lower the temperature, the lower the kinetic energy.

Given the reaction for the nickel-cadmium battery: 2NiOOH + Cd +2H2O -&gt; 2Ni(OH)2 + Cd(OH)2 What species is oxidized during th
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Cd is oxidized during the discharge of the battery

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2 NiOOH + Cd + 2H₂O → 2Ni(OH)₂ + Cd(OH)₂

And knowing Oxygen and hydrogen never change its charge, we must to find oxidation state of Ni and Cd before and after the reaction:

<em>Ni:</em>

In NiOOH: 2 O = -2*2 = -4 + 1H = +1, = -4 + 1 = -3. And as the molecule is neutral, Ni is 3+

In Ni(OH)₂: OH = -1. As there are 2 OH = -2. That means Ni is +2

The Ni is gaining one electron, that means is been reduced

<em>Cd:</em>

Cd before reaction is as pure solid with oxidation state = 0

Cd after the reaction is as Cd(OH)₂: 2 OH = -2. That means Cd is +2

The Cd is loosing 2 electrons, that means is the species that is oxidized.
