Answer:

It is termed a buffering agent

Explanation:

A buffering agent consist of a weak acid and a base that is used to maintain the acidity of a solution after the addition of

another acid or base

A buffer is used to prevent any rapid change in ph

For the reaction: N2(g) + H2(g) → NH3(g)
gayaneshka [121]

The rate of increase of NH3 is 0.22M/s.

<h3>What is the balanced equation of the reaction?</h3>

The balanced equation of the reaction is given below:

  • N2(g) + 3 H2(g) → 2 NH3(g)

The rate of decrease of N2 is half the rate of increase of NH3.

Rate of decrease of N2 = -0.11 M/s

Rate of increase of NH3 = 2 × +0.11 M/s = 0.22M/s.

In conclusion, the rate of formation of products is dependent on the rate of disappearance of reactants.

The electronegativity values of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen are compared in the table.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

C. CH₄ is less than NH₃ because the NH bond is more polar than the CH bond

Explanation:

The intermolecular forces between ammonia is far stronger than for methane. Between the molecules of ammonia we have the presence of hydrogen bonds. This bond is absent in methane.

Hydrogen bonds are one of the strongest intermolecular forces. It is as a result of the electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom N, O and F of another molecule.

  • This strong interaction is absent in methane which has just dipole - dipole attraction.

The strength of the hydrogen bond depends on the electronegativity of the combining atoms.

Tommy was walking at a rate of 4
Helga [31]
A positive acceleration indicates that the object sped up. This means that if you compare the first speed to the second, the second speed should be higher. 

A negative acceleration indicates that the object has slowed down. This means that if you compare the first speed to the second, the second speed should be lower.

If an acceleration is 0, it means that it neither slowed down nor sped up.

Now let us analyze your problem by listing down the speed and the time:

At noon: 4 mi/hr 
12:30 :   6 mi/hr
2:30   :   2 mi/hr

From noon to 12:30, you will notice that there is an increase in speed. This means that Tommy had a positive acceleration. (Rules out D.)

From 12:30 to 2:30, there is a decrease in speed. This would indicate that Tommy had a negative acceleration. (Rules out C.) 

No speed was the same, so acceleration was never 0. (Rules out A.)

From the assumptions above, we can now deduce that the answer is B.
