Answer:

pH 2.0; benzoic acid, layer: organic

pH 4.2; benzoic acid and benzoate anion, water layer

Explanation:

pH2.0: a lower PH than the pKa it becomes protonated and remains in the organic layer as benzoic acid, organic layer:

pH 4.2: at pH of 4.2 moves to the benzoic acid and benzoate anion, layer: water and organic

pH 12.0: at pH above the pKa it is more soluble in water hence benzoate anion, layer: water

Which of the following statements is typically true for a catalyst? I. The concentration of the catalyst will go down as a react
gladu [14]

Answer: II. The catalyst provides a new pathway in the reaction mechanism.

III. The catalyst speeds up the reaction.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and more molecules convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and gets regenerated as such at the end of the reaction without getting consumed.

Softa [21]

Answer:

reaction

Explanation:

A reaction is defined as a process where the chemical transformation takes place from one form to some other form. Here, two different chemical substances are reacted together to form some other completely different product.

A hydrogenation process is a chemical process where between the molecular hydrogen and some another element or a compound. This process is usually carried out in the presence of catalyst mainly nickel, platinum or palladium.

Thus, in hydrogenation of a double bond, the catalyst is used to speed up the reaction. The first step in this process is adsorption process, the second step is the diffusion process, the third step is the reaction process and the last step is the desorption process.
