c.unfavorable geometry

Answer:  C.  Unfavorable geometry

Explanation: When collision occurs between two reactants in order to make a reaction possible there are 3 factors which are responsible.

a) Orientation factor

b) Energy factor

c) rate of collision

Thus out of the given options, unfavorable geometry is the correct one as temperature and concentration as well as surface area will have very little effect on the reaction.

If the geometry of the reactant is not complementary then the reaction would not lead successfully.

In the following reaction, identify the oxidized species, reduced species, oxidizing agent, and reducing agent. Be sure to answe
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer :

Cl_2 is reduced species.

KI is oxidized species.

Cl_2 is oxidizing agent.

KI is reducing agent.

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Reducing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to reduce and itself gets oxidized. Thus, it will undergo oxidation reaction.

Oxidizing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to oxidize and itself gets reduced. Thus, it will undergo reduction reaction.

The balanced redox reaction is :

Cl_2(aq)+2KI(aq)\rightarrow 2KCl(aq)+I_2(aq)

The half oxidation-reduction reactions are:

Oxidation reaction : 2I^-\rightarrow I_2+2e^-

Reduction reaction : Cl_2^++2e^-\rightarrow 2Cl^-

From this we conclude that the 'KI' is the reducing agent that loses an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets oxidized and 'Cl_2' is the oxidizing agent that gain an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets reduced.

Thus, Cl_2 is reduced species.

KI is oxidized species.

Cl_2 is oxidizing agent.

KI is reducing agent.
