6 0

Answer:

They all react with acids.  

Explanation:

Thus, they decrease the concentration of stomach acid and provide heartburn relief.

The equations for the reactions are:

  1. Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl ⟶ MgCl₂ + 2H₂O
  2. Al(OH)₃ + 3HCl ⟶ AlCl₃ + 3H₂O
  3. CaCO₃ +2HCl ⟶ CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

Which of the following leads to a higher rate of diffusion?
tiny-mole [99]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Higher velocity of particles

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The diffusion rate is determined by a variety of factors which includes;

  • Temperature such that the higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles will have, so they will move and mix more quickly and the diffusion rate will be high.
  • Concentration gradient such that the greater the difference in concentration, the quicker the rate of diffusion.
  • Higher velocity of particles increases the diffusion rate as this means more kinetic energy by the particles and hence the particles will mix and move faster, thus higher diffusion rate.
