A physical Change is when you change the form, but not the object. such as when you grind wood, you get wood chips. same thing different form. a chemical Change is When You change the substance by adding another substance

There are several differences between a physical and chemical change in matter or substances. A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.

At a given temperature, the elementary reaction A − ⇀ ↽ − B , A↽−−⇀B, in the forward direction, is first order in A A with a rat

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The equilibrium constant for the reversible reaction = 0.0164

Explanation:

At equilibrium the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backwards reaction.

The reaction is given as

A ⇌ B

Rate of forward reaction is first order in [A] and the rate of backward reaction is also first order in [B]

The rate of forward reaction = |r₁| = k₁ [A]

The rate of backward reaction = |r₂| = k₂ [B]

(Taking only the magnitudes)

where k₁ and k₂ are the forward and backward rate constants respectively.

k₁ = 0.010 s⁻¹

k₂ = 0.0610 s⁻¹

|r₁| = 0.010 [A]

|r₂| = 0.016 [B]

At equilibrium, the rate of forward and backward reactions are equal

|r₁| = |r₂|

k₁ [A] = k₂ [B] (eqn 1)

Note that equilibrium constant, K, is given as

K = [B]/[A]

So, from eqn 1

k₁ [A] = k₂ [B]

[B]/[A] = (k₁/k₂) = (0.01/0.0610) = 0.0163934426 = 0.0164

K = [B]/[A] = (k₁/k₂) = 0.0164

Hope this Helps!!!

What is a result of the unequal electron sharing in a water molecule?

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The right choice is c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.

Explanation:

The unequal sharing of electrons in water molecule gives a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom ( see image below) and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms. A neutral molecule that has a partial positive charge at one end and a partial negative charge at the other, it is a polar molecule.

a. Water molecules have a nonpolar bond.

It is wrong choice because water has polar bond .

b. Water molecules have a weakly positive oxygen end.

Also, a wrong choice due to water molecule gives a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom.

c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.

This is the right choice.

d. Water molecules have two oxygen and two hydrogen atoms

It is wrong choice because water has one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms

So, the right choice is

c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.
