A bimolecular reaction is always a second-order reaction, but a second-order reaction is not always a bimolecular reaction.

The most important thing to take note of is that molecularity of a reaction is a concept applicable to only elementary reactions, meaning non-complex. In a way, elementary reactions are basic and achieved in one step. Complex reactions involve intermediate steps before achieving the desired reaction.

Molecularity is equal to the sum of the coefficients of the reactants, so two reactants give a second-order bimolecular reaction. However, second-order reactions can involve more than two reactants especially in complex reactions.

The people of Finland, who are secluded to some degree from the rest of the world by water, develop certain diseases due to the lack of genetic material from other ethnicities and races.

Physical barriers prevent fish from one stream from mating with fish from another stream, leading to a less varied gene pool among those fish. As time passes, the fish become unable to successfully mate with other groups.

A mountain range prevents two types of goat from mating, causing the gene pool to become less varied.<span>

EXPLAIN how to identify the reducing agent in a reaction of magnesium with oxygen
Alina [70]

Explanation:

Mg+O>MgO

Here the mg loses it electron and is oxidised and oxygen gains and is reduced.

Mg(2+)and O(2-)

Mg is a reducing agent it makes oxygen to be reduced while itself being oxidised and vice versa.

What volume of Co2 (carbon (iv) oxide)
hram777 [196]

Answer:

2.1056L or 2105.6mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 10g of Na2CO3. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = (23x2) + 12 + (16x3) = 106g/mol

Mass of Na2CO3 = 10g

Mole of Na2CO3 =.?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Na2CO3 = 10/106

Mole of Na2CO3 = 0.094 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole CO2 produced by the reaction of 0.094 mole of Na2CO3. This is illustrated below:

Na2CO3 + 2HCl —> 2NaCl + H2O + CO2

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Na2CO3 reacted to produce 1 mole of CO2.

Therefore, 0.094 mole of Na2CO3 will also react to 0.094 mole of CO2.

Next, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.094 mole of CO2 at STP. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at STP. This implies that 1 mole CO2 occupies 22.4L at STP.

Now, if 1 mole of CO2 occupy 22.4L at STP, then, 0.094 mole of CO2 will occupy = 0.094 x 22.4 = 2.1056L

Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 2.1056L or 2105.6mL
