Once the substance stops dissolving, the system is at equlibrium with the water and the undissolved salt now, if it is in the process of dissolving because it is completely soluble but has not been able to completely dissolve, it is not at equilibrium

Mercury is often released into water bodies with industrial effluents, where it is then converted to the compound form methylmer

sergeinik [125]

This is more to do with Bioaccumulation of mercury, where the mercury is absorbed into the issue of animals, and so animals higher in the food chain consume a lot of tissue matter hence increasing mercury content in their system.

Collision theory states that as molecules or ions bump into each other, a reaction will only occur if the collision has the corr

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: As temperature increases, the number of collisions increases and the energy of the collisions increases.

Explanation:

According to collision theory, for a reaction to take place it is necessary to have collisions between the reacting species or atoms.

A collision will only be effective if species coming together have a certain minimum value of internal energy equal to the activation energy of the reaction.

More is the number of collisions taking place in a chemical reaction more will be the kinetic energy of its molecules. As kinetic energy is the energy acquired due to motion of atoms or a substance.

Also, collisions increases with increase in temperature as:

$K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT$

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature. So, more is the temperature more will be energy of molecules.

Thus, we can conclude that as temperature increases, the number of collisions increases and the energy of the collisions increases.
