Answer:

D. 40 % increase  

Step-by-step explanation:

r = k[A]²/[B]

The rate is inversely proportional to [B]. If [B] is doubled, the rate is halved.

We must double this rate to get back to the original.

The rate is directly proportional to [A]².

2 = [A]₂/[A]₁²     Take the square root of each side

√2 = [A]₂/[A]₁     Multiply each side by [A]₁

[A]₂ = √2[A]₁

[A]₂ = 1.41[A]₁

We must increase [A] by 41 %.

Write the balanced reaction using the fewest whole number coefficients to describe the reaction between gaseous hydrogen and gas
Anastasy [175]

<u>Answer:</u> The percentage yield of water is 9.5 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of hydrogen = 14 moles

Moles of oxygen = 10 moles

The chemical equation for the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen follows:

2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrogen gas reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas

So, 14 moles of hydrogen gas will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 14=7mol of oxygen gas

As, given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent

Thus, hydrogen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrogen gas produces 2 moles of water

So, 14 moles of hydrogen gas will produce = \frac{1}{2}\times 14=7mol of water

To calculate the percentage yield of water, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of water = 1.33 moles

Theoretical yield of water = 14 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of water}=\frac{1.33mol}{14mol}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of water}=9.5\%

Hence, the percent yield of the water is 9.5 %.

What is the idea behid boyles law​
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Explanation:

For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. Or Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when the temperature is held constant.

What geometry does VSEPR predict for the central atom in NCl3
Archy [21]

Answer:

Tetrahedral electron geometry and trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry.

Explanation:

The Lewis structure is shown in Figure 1.

The central N atom has three bonding pairs and one lone pair, for <em>four electron groups</em>.

VSEPR theory predicts a tetrahedral electron geometry with bond angles of 109.5°.

We do not count the lone pair in determining the molecular shape.

The molecular geometry is trigonal pyramidal (see Figure 2).
