Answer:
Addition of a catalyst can speed up a reaction by providing an alternate reaction pathway that has a lower activation energy
Explanation:
A catalyst is an agent that increases the rate of a chemical reaction by providing an alternate pathway for the reaction that requires a lower activation energy. As the requirement for activation energy is less in the presence of a catalyst, there are more reactant particles becoming involved in the chemical reaction and as such there are more products formed per unit time, or there is an increase in the rate of the reaction
Example of catalyst include
1. Addition of potassium permanganate to hydrogen peroxide to aid in the rapid decomposition into water and oxygen
2. Platinum serves as a catalyst in the complete combustion of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide.
The best substance to heat up the fastest would be blue fire
Answer:
0.025 L
Explanation:
The production of oxygen in the electrolysis of water is;
4OH^-(aq) -----> 2H2O(l) + O2(g) + 4e
Since 1 F = 96500C
molar volume of a gas = 22.4 L
From the reaction equation;
4 * 96500 C yields 22.4 L of oxygen
(3 * 60 * 60 * 0.0400) C yields (3 * 60 * 60 * 0.0400) * 22.4/4 * 96500
= 9676.8/386000
= 0.025 L
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Heres what its made of:
The core is made of hot, dense plasma (ions and electrons), at a pressure estimated at 265 billion bar (3.84 trillion psi or 26.5 petapascals (PPa)) at the center. Due to fusion, the composition of the solar plasma drops from 68–70% hydrogen by mass at the outer core, to 34% hydrogen at the core/Sun center.
