Answer:

c. it involves a series of steps, each of which generates a reactive intermediate that brings about the next step

Explanation:

A chain reaction consist of many repeating steps. Chain reaction will never stop until all the reactant has been exhausted. It is more of a cycle of reaction that generate a reactive intermediate that brings about the next step.

Example of a chain reaction is the chlorination of methane.

CH4 + Cl2  ↔ CH3Cl + HCl

CH3Cl  + Cl2  ↔ CH2Cl2 + HCl

CH2Cl2 + Cl2  ↔ CHCl3 + HCl

CHCl3 + Cl2  ↔ CCl4 + HCl

A beach ball has a mass of 5 g and a volume of 20 cm3. What is the object's density?
ivann1987 [24]
Mass = 5 g

volume = 20 cm³

density = mass / volume

therefore:

D = m / V

D = 5 / 20

D = 0.25 g/cm³

What is the order in which electrons start filling the orbitals?
earnstyle [38]
<span>Take a look at this periodic table. You start in the left upper corner (1s) then you go to the right untill you can't go further, then you go 1 row down and start at the left again. So the order will be 1s,2s,2p,3s,3p,4s,3d,4p... etc</span>

Blank 1: polar
The difference in electronegativity between N and H causes electrons to preferentially orbit N, making the bond polar.

Blank 2: trigonal pyramidal
There are four “things” attached to N - 3 H’s and 1 lone pair of electrons. The four things together are arranged into a tetrahedral formation. However, the lone pairs don’t actually contribute to the shape of the molecule per se; it’s only the actual atoms that do. The lone pair creates a bit of repulsion that pushes the 3 H’s down, creating a trigonal pyramidal shape (as opposed to a trigonal planar one).

Blank 3: polar
The molecule as a whole is also polar because the “things” around it, though arranged in a tetrahedral pattern, are not all the same. The side of the molecule with the lone pair is slightly negative, while the side with the 3 H’s is slightly positive due to the differences in electronegativity described above.
