Answer:

(slow)xy2+z→xy2z (fast) c step1:step2:xy2+z2→xy2z2

Explanation:

Step1: xy2+z2→xy2z2 (slow)

Step2: xy2z2→xy2z+z (fast)

2XY 2 + Z 2 → 2XY 2 Z

Rate= k[xy2][z2]

 

When the two elementary steps are summed up, the result is equivalent to the stoichiometric equation. Hence, this mechanism is acceptable. The order of both elementary steps is 2, which is ‘≤3’; this also makes this mechanism acceptable. Furthermore, the rate equation aligns with the experimentally determined rate equation, and this also makes this mechanism acceptable. Therefore, since all the three rules have been observed, this mechanism is possible.

What was used to build the phylogenetic
Gnom [1K]
A phylogenetic tree may be built using morphological (body shape), biochemical, behavioral, or molecular features of species or other groups. In building a tree, we organize species into nested groups based on shared derived traits (traits different from those of the group's ancestor).

Use the equation n2 + 3h2=2nh3 if 8.0g N2 react, how many grams of NH3 will be produced
Eduardwww [97]

the balanced equation for the formation of ammonia is

N₂ + 3H₂ ---> 2NH₃

molar ratio of N₂ to NH₃ is 1:2

mass of N₂ reacted is 8.0 g

therefore number of N₂ moles reacted is - 8.0 g / 28 g/mol = 0.286 mol

according to the molar ratio,

1 mol of N₂ will react to give 2 mol of NH₃, assuming nitrogen is the limiting reactant

therefore 0.286 mol of N₂ should give - 2 x 0.286 mol = 0.572 mol of NH₃

therefore mass of NH₃ formed is - 0.572 mol x 17 g/mol = 9.72 g

a mass of 9.72 mol of NH₃ is formed

Identify which statement describes the following process. 2Ce + 3Cu2+ → 3Cu + 2Ce3+
Georgia [21]
Answer: <span>A-Ce is oxidized because it is losing electrons and Cu is reduced because it is gaining electrons</span><span>.

</span>There are two reactions in the equation, oxidation and reduction. A molecule that oxidized will lose electrons while the molecule that reduced will gain electrons. In this case, Cu2+ changed into Cu which means its oxidation number reduced from +2 into 0. Ce oxidation number increased from 0 into +3
