The answer to this question would be D. Hydrophilic.

The word hydrophilic mean attracted by water. That means the molecule has a force to attract water molecule, thus be able to dissolve in water. The polarity of the molecule would determine whether a molecule hydrophilic or not.
Its opposite would be hydrophobic which the molecule can't dissolve in water. One example of this would be oil or fat. That is why sometimes it is called lipophilic too.

onsider the reaction, NO2(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO2(g), for which the rate law has been determined to be: Rate = k[NO2]2[CO]. Whi

nlexa [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Rate of the reaction is a change in the concentration of any one of the reactant or product per unit time.

$NO_2(g) + CO(g)\rightarrow NO(g) + CO_2(g)$

Rate of the reaction:

$R=-\frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[CO]}{dt}$

Rate of decrease in nitrogen dioxide concentration is equal to the rate of decrease in carbon monoxide.

Given rate expression of the reaction:

$R = k[NO2]^2[CO]$

Rate of the reaction on doubling concentration of nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide : R'

$R'=k(2\times [NO_2])^2(2\times [CO])=8\times k[NO2]^2[CO]=8R$

Doubling the concentrations of nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide simultaneously will increase the rate of the reaction by a factor of eight.

Hence, none of the given statements are true.
