Solid because the molecules are close together and do not have enough space to vibrate a lot

Explanation:

In a solid state, molecules are held together more tightly because there exists strong intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules. Hence, these molecules can vibrate at their mean position but they cannot slide through each other.

As a result, molecules of a solid have lowest kinetic energy.

In liquids, molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Hence, they are able to slide through each other.

In gases, molecules are held by weak Vaander waal forces. Hence, They have high kinetic energy and move randomly from one place to another.

Thus, we can conclude that in solid state of matter molecules have the lowest kinetic energy.

Why does a catalyst work for a long time before it needs replacing?
DedPeter [7]
Because the catalyst is not really part of the reaction. it is something that speed up a reaction by lowering the energy need for the reaction to take place. however, in the end the catalyst is brought back to its initial state. that's why it is long lasting

Write the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a solution of formic acid. Calculate the quotient [HCO2]/[HCO2H] at (a) pH 3.000; (
Elena L [17]

Answer:

a. 0.182

b. 1.009

c. 1.819

Explanation:

Henderson-Hasselbach equation is:

pH = pKa + log [salt / acid]

Let's replace the formula by the given values.

a. 3 = 3.74 + log [salt / acid]

3 - 3.74 = log [salt / acid]

-0.74 = log [salt / acid]

10⁻⁰'⁷⁴ = 0.182

b. 3.744 = 3.74 + log [salt / acid]

3.744 - 3.74 = log [salt / acid]

0.004 = log [salt / acid]

10⁰'⁰⁰⁴ = 1.009

c. 4 = 3.74 + log [salt / acid]

4 - 3.74 = log [salt / acid]

0.26 = log [salt / acid]

10⁰'²⁶ = 1.819
