C. The number of protons in the atoms nucleus.
Answer : All of the above are valid expressions of the reaction rate.
Explanation :
The given rate of reaction is,
The expression for rate of reaction for the reactant :
![\text{Rate of disappearance of }NH_3=-\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NH_3]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20disappearance%20of%20%7DNH_3%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNH_3%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\text{Rate of disappearance of }O_2=-\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{d[O_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20disappearance%20of%20%7DO_2%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B7%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
The expression for rate of reaction for the product :
![\text{Rate of formation of }NO_2=+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20formation%20of%20%7DNO_2%3D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20formation%20of%20%7DH_2O%3D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BH_2O%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
From this we conclude that, all the options are correct.
Latent heat of melting is the energy that a solid absorbs to change its phase as its liquid. During this process, since all energy is used to change the phase, the temperature is constant.
Here the latent energy of melting for 1 g of ice is 80 calories and that 1 g of ice only absorbed 60 calories. hence the phase is not changed because it requires more 20 calories to melt.
Hence 1 g of ice remains as its solid phase (ice).
The motion of the molecules decreases.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Gases are formed when the energy in a system overcomes the attractive forces between the molecules. The gases expand to fill the space they occupy. In this way, the gas molecules interact little. In the gaseous state, the molecules move very quickly. As the temperature decreases, the amount of movement of the individual molecules also decreases.
- The fast-moving particle slows down. When a particle speeds up, it has more kinetic energy. When a particle slows down, it has less kinetic energy. The particles in solid form are commonly connected through electrostatic powers. They don't get enough space to move around, therefore, their speed diminishes, they can't keep their standard speed like in the vaporous or fluid state.
