Answer:

The correct answer is "brittle".

Explanation:

A sample of iodine is easiest to ship as a powder because it is "brittle", making it easy to break into small pieces. Brittle is a characteristic of substances that are hard and dry, which makes them liable to break or shatter easily. Iodine is a substance that is brittle because in its solid state, the particle experience strong electrostatic attractions, which makes them very volatile.

In general, what is the effect of increased temperature on the solubility of a gas?

Alecsey [184]

The physical explanation is that increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules. Hence, their random motion breaks more intermolecular bonds and the gas is less dissolved in the solvent. In contrast, solid solutes in water have increased solubility with increased temperatures.

Consider the reaction

SOVA2 [1]

Answer :

(a) The average rate will be:

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=9.36\times 10^{-5}M/s$

(b) The average rate will be:

$\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=1.87\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

The given rate of reaction is,

$5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)\rightarrow 3Br_2(aq)+3H_2O(l)$

The expression for rate of reaction :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }Br^-=-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }BrO_3^-=-\frac{d[BrO_3^-]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }H^+=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }Br_2=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}$

Thus, the rate of reaction will be:

$\text{Rate of reaction}=-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=-\frac{d[BrO_3^-]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}$

<u>Part (a) :</u>

<u>Given:</u>

$\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

As,

$-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

and,

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}$

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\times 1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

$\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}=9.36\times 10^{-5}M/s$

<u>Part (b) :</u>

<u>Given:</u>

$\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

As,

$-\frac{1}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}$

and,

$-\frac{1}{6}\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{d[Br^-]}{dt}$

$\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=\frac{6}{5}\times 1.56\times 10^{-4}M/s$

$\frac{d[H^+]}{dt}=1.87\times 10^{-4}M/s$

Consider the molecule BF3. (a) What is the electron config- uration of an isolated B atom? (b) What is the electron con- figurat

anzhelika [568]

For the given molecule, we are asked to give-

The electron configuration of an isolated B atom
The electron configuration of an isolated F atom
Hybrid orbitals should be constructed on the B atom to make the B–F bonds in Boron tri flouride
valence orbitals, if any, remain unhybridized on the B atom.

The electron configuration of an isolated B atom:

as atomic number of B is 5

electronic configuration will be [He] 2s² 2p¹

The electron configuration of an isolated F atom:

as atomic number of F is 9

electronic configuration will be [He] 2s² 2p5

Hybrid orbitals should be constructed on the B atom to make the B–F bonds in Boron tri flouride will be sp2.

as the one s and two of p orbital from the valance shell will hybridised to make 3 hybrid orbital of B resulting in 3 B-F bonds.

valence orbitals, if any, remain unhybridized on the B atom will be 1
