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.

Isobutyl propionate is the substance that provides the flavor for rum extract. combustion of a 1.152 g sample of this carbon-hyd
Ulleksa [173]

Answer;

C7H14O2

Solution;

Isobutyl contains , oxygen, carbon and hydrogen (total mass is 1.152 g)

Mass of carbon = 12/44 × 2.726 g

                           = 0.743455 g

Mass of Hydrogen  = 2/18 × 1.116 g

                            =  0.124 g

Mass of oxygen = 1.152 - (0.7435 + 0.124)

                           =  0.2845 g

Moles of carbon ;  0.7435/12 = 0.06196 moles

Moles of hydrogen; 0.124/1 = 0.124 moles

Moles of oxygen;  0.2845/16 = 0.01778 moles

Ratios ; 0.06196/0.01778 ; 0.124/0.01778 : 0.01778/0.01778

         =  3.5 :  7.0 : 1

To make them whole numbers ; we multiply the ratios by 2  to get;

(3.5 :  7.0 : 1 )2 = 7 : 14 : 2

Thus, the empirical formula of Isobutyl propionate  is C7H14O2

Define intensive properties​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

An intensive property is a property of matter that does not change as the amount of matter changes. It is a bulk property, which means it is a physical property that is not dependent on the size or mass of a sample.

In contrast, an extensive property is one that does depend on sample size. Examples of extensive properties include mass and volume.
