the chemical equation will be Ni(OH)2(s)------>heat---> NiO(s) + H2O(g)
we know that the heat supplied to decompose the compound.In the result the product H2O is assumed to be in the vapor state so that is gas.

hope it helps

In a certain industrial process involving a heterogeneous catalyst, the volume of the catalyst (in the shape of a sphere) is 10.

Answer:

a. The second run will be faster.

d. The second run has twice the surface area.

Explanation:

The rate of a reaction is proportional to the surface area of a catalyst. Given the volume (V) of a sphere, we can find its surface area (A) using the following expression.

$A=\pi ^{1/3} (6V)^{2/3}$

The area of the 10.0 cm³-sphere is:

$A=\pi ^{1/3} (6.10.0)^{2/3}=22.4cm^{2}$

The area of each 1.25 cm³-sphere is:

$A=\pi ^{1/3} (6. 1.25)^{2/3}=5.61cm^{2}$

The total area of the 8 1.25cm³-spheres is 8 × 5.61 cm² = 44.9 cm²

The ratio of 8 1.25cm³-sphere to 10.0 cm³-sphere is 44.9 cm²/22.4 cm² = 2.00

Since the surface area is doubled, the second run will be faster.
