The answer is 3). This is because elements are the simplest form of a substance, and cannot be broken down any further. Compounds on the other hand are much more complex than elements and can be broken down INTO elements. For example, Na, sodium, is an element and cannot be broken down further. H2O, water, is a compound and can be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

Calculate the molarity of a solution with 233.772g sodium chloride dissolved in 2,000mL of water
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The molarity is 2M

Explanation:

First , we calculate the weight of 1 mol of NaCl:

Weight 1mol NaCl= Weight Na + Weight Cl= 23 g+ 35, 5 g= 58, 5 g/mol

58,5 g---1 mol NaCl

233,772 g--------x= (233,772 g x1 mol NaCl)/58,5 g= 4 mol NaCl

<em>A solution molar--> moles of solute in 1 L of solution:</em>

2 L-----4 mol NaCl

1L----x0( 1L x4mol NaCl)/4L =2moles NaCl---> 2 M

Which of the following statements is typically true for a catalyst? I. The concentration of the catalyst will go down as a react
gladu [14]

Answer: II. The catalyst provides a new pathway in the reaction mechanism.

III. The catalyst speeds up the reaction.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and more molecules convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and gets regenerated as such at the end of the reaction without getting consumed.
