Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Second reaction

NO2 + F -------> NO2F

Rate of reaction:

k1 [NO2] [F2]

Explanation:

NO2 + F2 -----> NO2F + F slow step1

NO2 + F -------> NO2F fast. Step 2

Since the first step is the slowest step, it is the rate determining step of the reaction

Hence:

rate = k1 [NO2] [F2]

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g
Andreas93 [3]
2H2O --> 2H2 + O2
The mole H2O:mole O2 ratio is 2:1
Now determine how many moles of O2 are in 50g: 50g × 1mol/32g = 1.56 moles O2
Since 1 mole of O2 was produced for every 2 moles of H2O, we need 2×O2moles = H2O moles
2×1.56 = 3.13 moles H2O
Finally, convert moles to grams for H2O:
3.13moles × 18g/mol = 56.28 g H2O
D) 56.28

How spectral lines are formed
Ket [755]

=Spectral lines are produced by transitions of electrons within atoms or ions. As the electrons move closer to or farther from the nucleus of an atom (or of an ion), energy in the form of light (or other radiation) is emitted or absorbed.…

Which of the following sentences describes oxygen at room temperature? (check all that apply)
Degger [83]

At room temperature, O2 is in gaseous state.

a gas has no definite volume or definite shape. It occupies volume of container and attains shape of container only.

Thus

It has no definite volume and takes the shape of its container.

Its particles move fast enough to overcome the attraction between them.: the gas molecules have minimum intermolecular interactions and have high kinetic energy.

It has more energy than it would at a cooler temperature: the kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with increase in temperature. Thus the energy increases with temperature and decreases with decrease in temperature.

18. Which statement about photosynthesis is FALSE?
joja [24]
<h3>your query : </h3>

Which statement about photosynthesis is FALSE?

Answer:

b. Oxygen is needed as a reactant to produce

glucose is the incorrect statement here

Explanation:

plants uses simple raw materials to prepare their food , which includes water ( H2O ) and Carbon dioxide ( CO2 ).

and traps sunlight by Green pigments known as chlorophyll and stores these energy in bonds of glucose molecules

so ,

after this reaction glucose and oxygen is formed as products

● hence we conclude that Oxygen is not needed as a reactant to produce glucose , oxygen is the bi product formed during photosynthesis.
