How would adding the catalyst nitrogen monoxide (NO) affect this reaction?

Chemistry

steposvetlana [31]4 years ago

If nitrogen monoxide (NO) is added to 2SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g),

it will react with O2 and decrease the reaction rate by lowering the amount of O2.  So the answer is C.  NO decreases collisions between the SO2 and O2 molecules.

Answer: A.  NO increases the rate at which SO_3 molecules are formed.

Explanation: The catalyst makes it possible for the reaction to take place by another path that makes possible reaction at a lower energy.

Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more reactants (SO_2) and (O_2) undergo collision and can cross the energy barrier and convert to products (SO_3)

Thus NO increases the rate at which SO_3 molecules are formed.

What type of bonds exist in a molecule of water? Polar covalent bonds ionic bonds hydrogen bonds van der waals non polar covalen
Aleksandr [31]
Polar covalent bonds (because hydrogen and oxygen form polar bonds and are both nonmetals so it's covalent) and hydrogen bonds (because the water molecules are attracted to each other with partial charges, causing specific properties like surface tension).

So in my very bad drawing that I attached in case you're more a visual learner, the d- and d+ show the partial charges of hydrogen and oxygen (making it polar, as the electrons in the bond are more shifted towards oxygen, which is why oxygen has a negative sign) and the yellow dotted line show the hydrogen bonds.

Does data from mass spectrometry indicate that modern scientists have made modifications to Dalton''s model? Justify.
Gelneren [198K]
John Dalton was a scientist who proposed that all matter consists of atoms. At this stage, no one had yet discovered neutrons and the nucleus. As a result, Dalton's model consisted of a single atom i.e. the atom was the smallest object. 
A mass spectrometer is an instrument that is able to see what is inside an atom. Scientists have been able to prove that the item is not the smallest object in the world. Atoms are made up of smaller objects called protons, neutrons and electrons. 
We can, therefore, safely conclude that data  from mass spectrometry has helped modern scientists to make modifications to Dalton's model. <span>

Why did workers form labor unions?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Labor unions were created in order to help the workers with work-related difficulties such as low pay, unsafe or unsanitary working conditions, long hours, and other situations. ... Sometimes the unions organized strikes in order to try to change the conditions of the workers.

Nitrogen and hydrogen combine to form ammonia in the Haber process. Calculate (in kJ) the standard enthalpy change ∆H° for the r
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

∆H° rxn = - 93 kJ

Explanation:

Recall that a change in standard in enthalpy, ∆H°, can be calculated from the inventory of the energies, H, of the bonds  broken minus bonds formed (H according to Hess Law.

We need to find in an appropiate reference table the bond energies for all the species in the reactions and then compute the result.

              N₂ (g)   +            3H₂ (g)   ⇒                          2NH₃ (g)

1 N≡N = 1(945 kJ/mol)     3 H-H = 3 (432 kJ/mol)       6 N-H = 6 ( 389 kJ/mol)

∆H° rxn = ∑  H bonds broken  - ∑ H bonds formed

∆H° rxn = [ 1(945 kJ)   + 3 (432 kJ) ] - [ 6 (389 k J]

∆H° rxn = 2,241 kJ -2334 kJ = -93 kJ

be careful when reading values from the reference table since you will find listed N-N bond energy (single bond), but we have instead a triple bond,  N≡N,  we have to use this one .
