Which of the following statements is not true regarding molecular orbital theory? O Bonding molecular orbitals have lower energy

than the atomic orbitals from which they are formed. O Molecular orbitals are formed by the combination of atomic orbitals. Two atomic orbitals combine to form one molecular orbital. O Molecular orbitals are regions of a molecule where the electrons are most likely to be found.

Answer:

Option c, Two atomic orbitals combine to form one molecular orbital

Explanation:

Molecular orbitals are formed by linear combination of atomic orbitals.

Some of the important facts of molecular orbital theories are as follows:

  • No. of the molecular orbitals formed are equal to the no. of atomic orbitals participated.
  • Half of the molecular orbitals are bonding molecular orbitals and half of the molecular orbitals are anti bonding molecular orbitals.
  • Anti bonding molecular orbitals have energy higher than participating atomic orbitals.
  • Bonding molecular orbitals have energy lower than participating atomic orbitals.
  • Molecular orbitals are that region in the molecule where electrons are most likely to found.

So, among given, option c which is 'atomic orbitals combine to form one molecular orbital' is incorrect.

For the reaction A+B+C→D+E, the initial reaction rate was measured for various initial concentrations of reactants. The followin

Answer : The initial rate for a reaction will be 3.4\times 10^{-3}Ms^{-1}

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

A+B+C\rightarrow D+E

Rate law expression for the reaction:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b[C]^c

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

c = order with respect to C

Expression for rate law for first observation:

6.0\times 10^{-5}=k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

1.8\times 10^{-4}=k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.60)^c ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

2.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.40)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c ....(3)

Expression for rate law for fourth observation:

2.4\times 10^{-4}=k(0.40)^a(0.40)^b(0.20)^c ....(4)

Dividing 1 from 2, we get:

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-4}}{6.0\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.60)^c}{k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}\\\\3=3^c\\c=1

Dividing 1 from 3, we get:

\frac{2.4\times 10^{-4}}{6.0\times 10^{-5}}=\frac{k(0.40)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}{k(0.20)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}\\\\4=2^a\\a=2

Dividing 3 from 4, we get:

\frac{2.4\times 10^{-4}}{2.4\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{k(0.40)^a(0.40)^b(0.20)^c}{k(0.40)^a(0.20)^b(0.20)^c}\\\\1=2^b\\b=0

Thus, the rate law becomes:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^2[B]^0[C]^1

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

6.0\times 10^{-5}=k(0.20)^2(0.20)^0(0.20)^1

k=7.5\times 10^{-3}M^{-2}s^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the initial rate for a reaction that starts with 0.75 M of reagent A and 0.90 M of reagents B and C.

\text{Rate}=k[A]^2[B]^0[C]^1

\text{Rate}=(7.5\times 10^{-3})\times (0.75)^2(0.90)^0(0.90)^1

\text{Rate}=3.4\times 10^{-3}Ms^{-1}

Therefore, the initial rate for a reaction will be 3.4\times 10^{-3}Ms^{-1}

There are diffrent types of cells for every job in your body. How do we refer to those cells that develop differently?
kotykmax [81]

<u>Answer:</u>

Those cells that develop differently are referred  to Specialised Cells.

<u> </u><u>Explanation:</u>

Specialised cells are the one that is assigned to perform a specific role. Every specialised cell in the body is assigned to do their own job. The special features in them help them to perform their functions effectively.

Examples of specialised cells are- red blood cells (they are responsible to carry oxygen in the body), nerve cells (specialises in transmitting electrical signals) and muscle cells (brings body parts together).

Water is a pure substance. Which of the following is true about water? (4 points) Its compounds can only be physically separated
jonny [76]

Answer:

Water/H20 is a compound made of hydrogen and oxygen. Although water is the most abundant substance on earth, it is rarely found naturally in its pure form. Most of the time, pure water has to be created. Pure water is called distilled water or deionized water.
