Elaborate on the role of activation energy in chemical reactions. A) Decreasing the activation energy leads to higher randomness

within the reaction and an increased reaction rate. B) Activation energy is the minimum energy colliding reactants need to combine and for the chemical reaction to occur. C) The activation energy and randomness indicate the reduced likelihood that the barrier is overcome and a decreased rate. D) Higher activation energy indicates a higher randomness and the energy barrier is overcome with an increased reaction rate.

Answer:

A and B

Explanation:

The activation energy is the minimum energy necessary for the reaction to happen. It is a barrier, the reaction only occurs if the reactants have that energy.

As higher is the activation energy, as difficult is to the reaction happens, and because of that, the reaction rate will be small. The rate indicates the reaction velocity, which is the velocity of the collisions of the molecules, with more collisions, higher randomness is presented, and higher is the velocity.

A) Correct. As less energy is necessary, as higher is the velocity of the reaction, so the randomness and the rate will increase.

B) Correct. Is the definition of activation energy.

C) Incorrect. They indicate the rate of the reaction, and how easy or not it will be to the reaction happen.

D) Incorrect. As higher is the activation energy, as low is the randomness and the rate of the reaction.

A 20.0 mL solution of NaOH is neutralized with 24.1 mL of 0.200 M HBr. What is the concentration of the original NaOH solution
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

0.241 M

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

HBr + NaOH —> NaBr + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of acid, HBr (nₐ) = 1

The mole ratio of base, NaOH (n₆) = 1

Finally, we shall determine the concentration of the NaOH solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of base, NaOH (V₆) = 20 mL

Volume of acid, HBr (Vₐ) = 24.1 mL

Concentration of acid, HBr (Cₐ) = 0.2 M

Concentration of base, NaOH (C₆) =?

CₐVₐ / C₆V₆ = nₐ/n₆

0.2 × 24.1 / C₆ × 20 = 1/1

4.82 / C₆ × 20 = 1

Cross multiply

C₆ × 20 = 4.82

Divide both side by 20

C₆ = 4.82 / 20

C₆ = 0.241 M

Therefore, the concentration of the NaOH solution is 0.241 M

What is the emperical formula of a compound containing 40.1% carbon and 6.6% hydrogen​
levacccp [35]

Answer:

CH₂

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Percentage composition:

          Carbon  = 40.1%

          Hydrogen  = 6.6%

Unknown:

Empirical formula of the compound  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a substance is its simplest formula.

 Elements                             Carbon                             Hydrogen

Percentage

Composition                           40.1                                     6.6

Molecular mass                        12                                         1

Number of moles                  40.1/12                                  6.6/1

                                                3.342                                    6.6

Divide through by

the smallest                         3.342/3.342                           6.6/3.342

                                                      1                                        2

So the empirical formula of the compound is CH₂

Which element is closely associated with the field of organic chemistry?
slega [8]

Answer:

Carbon

Explanation:

The field of organic chemistry is the field  of the study of the compounds of carbon mostly with hydrogen but they  can contain the presence of other atoms such as oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur even metals such as lithium. It studies the structure, properties, synthesis and reactions of these compounds. The field of organic chemistry is the field of living organisms as they are mostly are formed by organic compounds hence its name organic.
