Due to electron deficiency in a metal cation, they cannot form a covalent bond beacuse it means to share electrons. By contrast metal cation seek for electrons. In an ionic bond, one atom give electrons, while another atom recevie electron. Because of that, this is the better option to metal cations.

How can we increase the rate of collisions between the reactants in this reaction? mg 2hcl → mgcl2 h2

Minchanka [31]

<u>The frequency of </u><u>collisions </u><u>between the two reactants increases as the </u><u>concentration </u><u>of the reactants increases</u>. When collisions happen, they don't always cause a reaction (atoms misaligned or insufficient energy, etc.). Higher concentrations result in more collisions and reaction opportunities.

Increasing a reactant's surface area increases the frequency of collisions and thus the reaction rate. The surface area of several smaller particles is greater than that of a single large particle. The greater the available surface area for particles to collide, the faster the reaction will occur.

<h3>How does concentration affect the rate of collisions between reactants?</h3>

Thus, we can conclude that by increasing the concentration of Mg in the reaction mixture we increase the rate of collisions between the reactants in this reaction.

<h3>What does the half reaction of an oxidation-reduction reaction show?</h3>

Iron gains electrons in the half reaction of an oxidation-reduction reaction. What does iron's electron gain mean? It has been reduced. Predict the product that will precipitate out of the reaction using the solubility rules and the periodic table.

How many atp molecules can be produced when a six carbon fatty acid is completely oxidized through the fatty acid spiral?

Karolina [17]

The simplified formula for the determination of the number of ATP molecules produced from fat oxidation is:
5(n-1) + 12n - 2

This formula is derived using the amount of energy produced using each turn of the Kerb's cycle, which has two-carbon units fed to it via beta oxidation (also referred to as the fatty acid spiral).
In order to use this formula, we require the value of n. n is the number of two-carbon units that the fatty acid molecule will produce. This means:

n = 6 / 2 = 3
Using n = 3

5(3 - 1) + 12(3) - 2

44 ATP molecules
