Answer:

Explanation:

There are three types of interactions involved between the particles when solution are formed.

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

It is the inter-molecular attraction between the solute particles.

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

It involve the inter-molecular attraction between solvent and solute particles.

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

It involve the intermolecular attraction between solvent particles.

Solutions are formed if the intermolecular attraction between solute particles are similar to the attraction between solvent particles.

Exothermic process:

The process will exothermic when solute solvent bonds are formed with the release of energy and energy required to brake the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are less.

Endothermic process:

The process will be endothermic when energy required to break the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are higher than energy released when solute solvent bonds are formed .

Nataliya [291]

The frequency of collisions between the N₂ and H₂ molecules will decrease and the rate of reaction will also decrease.

Since the water is cooler than the gas mixture, heat will flow from the gas to the water.

The gas will cool down, so the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules will decrease.

The molecules will be moving more slowly, so there will be fewer collisions and fewer of these collisions will have enough energy to react.

The rate of reaction between H₂ and N₂ molecules at room temperature is exceedingly slow, but cooling the gas mixture will make the reaction even slower.
