Answer: If we increase the temperature, the kinetic energy of the molecules will increase and they will need less extra energy and hence lesser activation energy to overcome the threshold energy barrier.

Answer: activation energy is the minimum energy required for reactants to be converted to products.

Explanation:increase in temperature, weakens the bonds between molecules of reactants, thereby the molecules' kinetic energy is increased which led to frequent collusion of reactants molecules, when this happens, energy is produce.the higher the temperature of a reaction the more the collusion and the more energy is produced, which we lead to reaching the activation the activation energy faster and more products are formed

Answer:

There are two kinds of forces, or attractions, that operate in a molecule—intramolecular and intermolecular. Let's try to understand this difference through the following example.

Explanation:

We have six towels—three are purple in color, labeled hydrogen and three are pink in color, labeled chlorine. We are given a sewing needle and black thread to sew one hydrogen towel to one chlorine towel. After sewing, we now have three pairs of towels: hydrogen sewed to chlorine. The next step is to attach these three pairs of towels to each other. For this we use Velcro as shown above.

So, the result of this exercise is that we have six towels attached to each other through thread and Velcro. Now if I ask you to pull this assembly from both ends, what do you think will happen? The Velcro junctions will fall apart while the sewed junctions will stay as is. The attachment created by Velcro is much weaker than the attachment created by the thread that we used to sew the pairs of towels together. A slight force applied to either end of the towels can easily bring apart the Velcro junctions without tearing apart the sewed junctions.

Exactly the same situation exists in molecules. Just imagine the towels to be real atoms, such as hydrogen and chlorine. These two atoms are bound to each other through a polar covalent bond—analogous to the thread. Each hydrogen chloride molecule in turn is bonded to the neighboring hydrogen chloride molecule through a dipole-dipole attraction—analogous to Velcro. We’ll talk about dipole-dipole interactions in detail a bit later. The polar covalent bond is much stronger in strength than the dipole-dipole interaction. The former is termed an intramolecular attraction while the latter is termed an intermolecular attraction.

Solid sodium reacts violently with water producing heat, hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide. How many molecules of hydrogen gas a
nignag [31]
Find the number of moles of sodium you have: 
<span>n = m/M where m is your 20g of sodium and M is 22.99 g/mol. </span>

<span>Look at the stoichiometry of the equation - it's 2:2 when you are producing NaOH. So if you took 1 mole of Na, it'd produce 1 mole of NaOH (as the ratio is equal). </span>

<span>That means that your moles of sodium is equal to the moles of NaOH produced. Use the molar mass of NaOH - which is 39.998 g/mol along with your calculated number of moles to get the mass (the formula rearranges to m = nM). </span>

<span>This figure is the theoretical yield - what you would get if every last mole of sodium was converted into NaOH. </span>

<span>What you get in practice is the experminetal yield, and the percentage yield is the experimental yield divided by the theoretical yield - and then multiplied by 100%.</span>
