How does activation energy affect a chemical reaction ?

Chemistry

Leno4ka [110]3 years ago

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required to start or initiate a chemical reaction.

More is the activation energy more difficult is it for the reactants to participate in reaction.

Whereas a catalyst helps in increasing the rate of a reaction by increasing the energy of reactant molecules so that they can cross the activation energy barrier and therefore, formation of products become faster.

Thus, we can conclude that activation energy affect a chemical reaction as it determines how difficult it is to start the reaction.

Enzymes affect the rate of the reaction in both the forward and reverse directions; the reaction proceeds faster because less energy is required for molecules to react when they collide. Thus, the rate constant (k) increases. Figure 3: Lowering the Activation Energy of a Reaction by a Catalyst.

hope this helps!

A metallurgist is making an alloy that consists of 325 grams of chromium (Cr) and 2.5 kg of iron (Fe). Find the total mass of th
Darya [45]

Answer:- Mass of the alloy is 2.8 kg.

Solution:- Mass of Cr in the alloy is 325 g and mass of Fe in the alloy is 2.5 kg. Mass of alloy would be the sum of masses of constituent metals.

Masses of the metals are not in the same units. So, we need to make the units equal. The want answer in kg so let's convert mass of Cr from g to kg.

Since, 1000 g = 1 kg

So, 325g\frac{1kg}{1000g}

= 0.325 kg

Mass of alloy = mass of Cr + mass of Fe

mass of alloy = 0.325 kg + 2.5 kg = 2.825 kg

If we consider significant figures then as per the rules, the answer should not have more than one decimal place.

So, 2.825 kg is round off to 2.8 kg and hence the mass of the alloy is 2.8 kg.

A force of 2,500 pounds drags a truck 30 feet in 1/2 minute.
scoray [572]
The right subject for this question is physics.

To calculate the work you use the formula:

Work = force * displacement

Work = 2500 pounds * 30 feet = 75,000 pounds - feet



To calculate the power you use the formula:

power = work / time

Power = 75,000 pound - feet / 30 seconds = 2300 pound-feet / second.

Silicon is prepared by the reduction of K₂SiF6 with Al. Write the equation for this reaction. (Hint: Can F⁻ be oxidized in this
BlackZzzverrR [31]

4Al + 3K2SiF6 = 6KF + 3Si + 4AIF3 is the reaction for preparation of silicon by the reduction of K₂SiF6 with Al.

AlF3xH2O-based inorganic compounds are referred to as aluminium fluoride. They are all solids without colour. Aluminium fluoride is a crystalline (sand-like), odourless, white, or colourless powder. In addition to being used to make aluminium, it also functions as a flux in welding processes and in ceramic glazes and enamels.

Silicon (Si) is created by reducing potassium silicofluoride with aluminium as the reducing agent (K2SIF6). While K2SiF6 is reduced to Si in this equation, aluminium is oxidised to aluminium fluoride. As a result, the balanced equation describing aluminum's reduction of K2SiF6 to silicon non-metal is as follows: 4Al + 3K2SiF6 = 6KF + 3Si + 4AIF3
