Answer:

Catalyst

Explanation:

A general term for a chemical which accelerates a reaction without becoming chemically involved is called a catalyst.

Catalysts are used in industrial processes to speed up the rate of a chemical reaction. For instance, in the Contact process used in the production of sulphuric (vi) acid, vanadium(V) oxide (V2O5) is used as a catalyst to speed up the production of the acid. Vanadium(V) oxide (V2O5) is preferred to Platinum which was initially used as the catalyst since it does not react with any of the products of the process

58. Explain why each successive ionization of an electron
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

It's because removal of electron from an atom, reduces the size of an atom.

Explanation:

When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes an ion and in this case it will become a postive ion.

When an electron is removed from an atom, the charge balance of an atom is disturbed and positive charge increases in comparison to the negative charge. This results in increase nuclear (positive) charge which exerts greater attraction on the remaining electrons and as a result the remaining electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus and in this way the atomic size is decreased. Due to this increased nuclear attraction and reduced atomic size, it bcomes difficult to remove more electeon from the positively charged ion of reduced size. This is the reason that each successive ionization of electron requires a greater amount of energy.

The ionization energy has inverse relation with the size or radius of an atom. This also justifies the reason that why each successive ionization of an electron requires greater amount of energy.

How many electrons in an atom can share the quantum numbers n = 2, l = 1?<br> 1<br> 3<br> 6<br> 10
Igoryamba
Principal quantum number is n = 2, principal quantum number gives the energy shells electrons reside in,
angular momentum quantum number , these are the number of subshells and gives how many subshells are there in energy shells, values for l range from 0 to n-1
magnetic quantum number -m- gives the specific orbital in the subshells and their orientation.
spin quantum number gives the spin of the electrons.

in this case, n = 2
the types of subshells in n=2 are 0 and 1
0 - s subshell 
1 - p subshell
the  specific number of orbitals are given by -l to +l
when l = 1
then -1, 0 and +1
therefore there are 3 orbitals in p subshell and orbitals are in 3 orientations
each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, 
since there are 3 orbitals each holding 6, there are 6 electrons to which these quantum numbers are the same
answer is 6

Classify the following alcohol as primary,
Nata [24]

The classification of the alcohols gives;

  • Compound 1 - Primary alcohol
  • Compound 2 - Tertiary alcohol
  • Compound 3 - Secondary alcohol
  • Compound 4 - Secondary alcohol

<h3>What are alcohols?</h3>

Organic compounds occurs in families. The family of compounds is called a homologous series. The homologous series always have a functional group. The functional group is the atom, group of atoms or bond that is responsible for the chemical reactivity of the members of a given homologous series.

Now we know that the alcohols are those organic compounds that contains the -OH group. The could be aliphatic or alicyclic compounds. We shall now proceed to name the kind of alcohols that each of the compounds shown are;

  • Compound 1 - Primary alcohol
  • Compound 2 - Tertiary alcohol
  • Compound 3 - Secondary alcohol
  • Compound 4 - Secondary alcohol
