Answer:

1) Transition states are short-lived

Explanation:

Transition state theory explains the rates of elementary chemical reactions. It assumes a quasi-equilibrium between reactants and activated transition state complexes.

The following are the characteristics of transition states

Instability
Ill-defined
High energy
short-lived

The species that must collide for the reaction to occur are shown by the mechanism of reaction and not the balanced reaction itself

Intermediates are consumed in each step of the overall reaction, they are not short lived

Assuming the ball's initial velocity was 51 ∘ above the horizontal and ignoring air resistance, what did the initial speed of th

Umnica [9.8K]

horizontal distance of home run is 400 ft = 122 m

height of the home run is 3 ft = 0.9 m

now the angle of the hit is 51 degree

now we have equation of trajectory of the motion

$x = vcos\theta * t$

$y = v sin\theta * t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

solving above two equations we have

$y = xtan\theta - \frac{gx^2}{2v^2cos^2\theta}$

now here we will plug in all data

$0.9 = 122 tan51 - \frac{9.8 * 122^2}{2*v^2 * cos^251}$

$0.9 = 150.65 - \frac{184150.2}{v^2}$

$\frac{184150.2}{v^2} = 149.75$

$v = 35.1 m/s$

so the ball was hit with speed 35.1 m/s from the ground
