Answer:

Catalyst is referred to as the substance used in the reaction to speed up or to increase the efficiency of the reaction. the catalyst itself does not alter any change during the reaction. As catalyst itself is not the reactant or product thus it does not appear in a chemical reaction

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, the catalyst is used to decrease the activation energy thus to provide or enhance the reaction mechanism to the reaction.

Indicate how the concentration of each species in the chemical equation will change to reestablish equilibrium after changing th

Allisa [31]

<h3>1. Br₂ decreased : system moving to the left</h3><h3>2. HBr increased : system moving to the left</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>

In the equilibrium system, according to Le Chatelier, if there is a reaction there will be action

<h3>Reaction = - action</h3>

If the concentration of one component is enlarged, the system reaction is to reduce the component, and vice versa, if the concentration of one component is reduced, the reaction system is to add to the component

From reaction :

H₂(g) + Br₂(g) ⇔ 2HBr(g)

After the concentration of Br₂ is decreased :

The system will react by increasing the concentration of reagents by moving to the left

After the concentration of HBr is increased.

The system will react by decreasing the concentration of product by moving to the left

Stellar fusion produces atoms up to and including ___________ Question 51 options: Helium (atomic number 2) Carbon (atomic numbe

Ganezh [65]

Explanation:

Stellar fusion is the nuclear reaction that occurs in stars.
In this reaction, the nuclei build to form heavier elements.
Stars fuse elements of lighter ones to heavier ones
This fusion reaction occurs in their cores.
During this process, a lot of energy is released.
This process is also known as stellar nucleosynthesis as there is a synthesis of the different nucleus.
Stellar fusion produces lighter elements of many types including iron(Fe) and nickel(Ni) in many of the giant stars.
These elements remain trapped in the cores of stars.
