Answer:
an object that is at rest will stay at rest inless a force acts upon it.
An oject that is in motion will not change its velocity unless a force acts upon it.
Answer:
Ag 0 is the reducing agent.
Explanation:
Reducing -> gaining electrons
Oxidizing -> losing electrons
Ag lost electrons (became more positive) since it went from a 0 charge to a +1 charge. Therefore it was oxidized. Ag+ is the oxidized product. Reactants that create an oxidized product are called reducing agents. This would make Ag 0 the reducing agent in this reaction.
The factors that affect the rate of a reaction are:
- <em>nature of the reactant</em> - when reactants with different chemical composition are exposed to same conditions they would react differently. For instance, when an acid or base is added on litmus paper, blue litmus paper turns red in presence of acid while red litmus paper turns blue when base is added.
- <em>surface area</em>- a compound with small pieces spread over a large area will react faster than a big lump of a compound occupying a small area.
- <em>temperature of reaction</em>- reactants would react faster at high temperatures. this is because they have higher kinetic energy to collide with each other. Hence a plate of food on the table spoils faster than a plate of food in the fridge.
- <em>concentration</em>- an increase in concentration leads to more molecules available to collide and form products. An example, when you add more of indicator in a solution, the color becomes more clear since more particles react to give more color.
- <em>presence of a catalyst</em>- a catalyst lowers the activation energy, which means less energy is required to shift reaction in forward direction. In the presence of iron (Fe) a catalyst, nitrogen N₂ and hydrogen H₂ react to produce NH₃
Answer:
The average kinetic energy of a gas depends only on its temperature.
Explanation:
The average kinetic energy of particles in a gas can be found using the equation
,
where
is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, and
is the absolute temperature of this gas (the one in degree Kelvins.)
As seen in this equation, the average kinetic energy of particles in a gas depends only on the temperature of the gas. Also, since the question is asking for the average not the total kinetic energy, the number of particles in this gas doesn't matter, either.
