Answer:

Metallic character decreases as you move across a period in the periodic table from left to right. This occurs as atoms more readily accept electrons to fill a valence shell than lose them to remove the unfilled shell. Metallic character increases as you move down an element group in the periodic table. This is because electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases, where there is less attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons because of the increased distance between them.

which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

NeTakaya

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

(a) at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(b) at low temperatures, low-energy collisions happen more frequently.

(c) at higher temperatures, less-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(d) at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently

Explanation:

When we increase the temperature of a chemical reaction then molecules of the reactant species tend to gain kinetic energy. As a result, they come into motion which leads to more number of collisions within the molecules.

Therefore, chemical reaction will take less amount of time in order to reach its end point. This means that there will occur an increase in rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently, best explains why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction.
