Which rule for assigning oxidation numbers is correct?
LenKa [72]
Hydrogen is usually –1. This is INCORRECT. The oxidation number for H is +1.
Oxygen is usually –2. This is CORRECT.
A pure group 1 element is +1. This is INCORRECT. It does not follow. This will depend on the other elements and the overall charge.
A monatomic ion is 0. This is INCORRECT. Diatomic ion is 0.

What is the significance of "Er" in the diagram?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The significance of "Er" in the diagram is :

B.) Threshold energy for reaction

Explanation:

Threshold energy : It is total amount of energy required by the reactant molecule to reach the transition state .

Activation energy : It is the excess energy absorbed by the molecules to reach the transition state.

<u>Activation Energy = Threshold Energy - Average Kinetic Energy</u>

<u>This means Activation energy decreases on increasing kinetic energy</u>

On increasing Temperature average kinetic energy of the molecule increases which reduces the activation energy and the reaction occur faster in that case.

Catalyst also reduces the Activation energy.

<u>Er = Threshshold energy for reaction at 30 degree</u>

<u>Ea = Activation Energy</u>

<u>The given figure shows that the threshold energy decreases on increasing the temperature</u>

<u>Only the molecule having energy greater than Er can react to form product</u>

If 5.0 moles of C3H8 react, how many molecules of water are formed?
artcher [175]
Balance Chemical Equation for combustion of Propane is as follow,

                         C₃H₈  +  5 O₂    →    3 CO₂  +  4 H₂O

According to equation,

              1 mole of C₃H₈ on combustion gives  =  4 moles of H₂O
So,
        5 moles of C₃H₈ on combustion will give  =  X moles of H₂O

Solving for X,
                                    X  =  (5 mol × 4 mol) ÷ 1 mole

                                    X  =  20 moles of H₂O

Calculating number of molecules for 20 moles of H₂O,
As,
                        1 mole of H₂O contains  =  6.022 × 10²³ molecules
So,
                20 moles of H₂O will contain  =  X molecules

Solving for X,
                                 X  =  (20 mole × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules) ÷ 1 mol

                                 X  =  1.20 ×10²⁵ Molecules of H₂O
