shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

All three lighter boron trihalides, BX3 (X = F, Cl, Br), form stable adducts with common Lewis bases. Their relative Lewis acidities can be evaluated in terms of the relative exothermicities of the adduct-forming reaction. Such measurements have revealed the following sequence for the Lewis acidity: BF3 < BCl3 < BBr3 (in other words, BBr3 is the strongest Lewis acid).

This trend is commonly attributed to the degree of π-bonding in the planar boron trihalide that would be lost upon pyramidalization (the conversion of the trigonal planar geometry to a tetrahedral one) of the BX3 molecule, which follows this trend: BF3 > BCl3 > BBr3 (that is, BBr3 is the most easily pyramidalized). The criteria for evaluating the relative strength of π-bonding are not clear, however. One suggestion is that the F atom is small compared to the larger Cl and Br atoms, and the lone pair electron in the 2pzorbital of F is readily and easily donated, and overlaps with the empty 2pz orbital of boron. As a result, the [latex]\pi[/latex] donation of F is greater than that of Cl or Br. In an alternative explanation, the low Lewis acidity for BF3 is attributed to the relative weakness of the bond in the adducts F3B-L.

A reversible reaction is one where A) there are large changes in the net free energy from substrate to product. B) there is litt
laila [671]

Answer:

A reversible reaction is one where <u><em>B) there is little change in the net free energy between substrate and product.</em></u>

Explanation:

A reversible reaction is one that reagents are transformed into products and at the same time products are transformed into reagents. That is to say that as the products appear in the reaction, they can react with each other by regenerating the reagents again. It is represented by a double arrow, indicating that the reaction can be carried out both in one direction and the other way around.

At the start of the reaction, there is a large amount of reagents. As time goes by, that amount decreases and speed too.

On the other hand, at the beginning of the reaction there are no products. As the reaction happens, the products are being formed and their speed will increase to match the speed of the reagents. When the rates of products and reagents are equal and constant, it is possible to say that the reaction is in chemical equilibrium. At this point, both reactions continue to happen, but the total concentrations of reagents and products no longer change.

The Gibbs free enthalpy or free energy of a system is a measure of the amount of usable energy (energy that a job can perform) in that system.

When a reaction system is in chemical equilibrium, it is in the lowest possible energy state (it has the lowest possible free energy). If a reaction is not in equilibrium, it will move spontaneously towards it because that allows it to reach a state of lower and more stable energy. Then when the reaction moves towards equilibrium, the free energy of the system decreases more and more.

Finally, <u><em>a reversible reaction is one where B) there is little change in the net free energy between substrate and product.</em></u>

Why does galium melt
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).

- It melts once it reaches its melting point.
