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.

What are the molarity and the normality of a solution made
Nikitich [7]

Explanation:

It is known that molarity is the number of moles present in a liter of solution.

Mathematically,    Molarity = \frac{\text{no. of moles}}{\text{volume in liter}}

Hence, calculate the molarity of given solution as follows.

     Molarity of citric acid = \frac{\text{mass of citric acid}}{\text{molar mass of citric acid}} \times \frac{1}{\text{volume of solution(L)}}

                                 = \frac{25 g}{192.13 g/mol} \times \frac{1}{0.75 L}

                                 = 0.173 M

As citric acid is a triprotic acid so, upon dissociation it gives three hydrogen ions.

          Normality = Molarity × no. of hydrogen or hydroxide ions

                            = 0.173 × 3

                            = 0.519 N

Thus, we can conclude that molarity of given solution is 0.173 and its normality is 0.519 N.
