In an experiment, hydrochloric acid reacted with different volumes of sodium thiosulfate in water. A yellow precipitate was form

ed during the reaction. A cross drawn at the base of each flask became gradually invisible due the formation of this yellow precipitate. The time taken for the cross to become invisible was recorded. A partial record of the experiment is shown.

Water Time

1 10 mL 10 mL 40 mL 14 seconds

2 10 mL 20 mL 30 mL

3 10 mL 30 mL 20 mL

4 10 mL 40 mL 10 mL


Based on your knowledge of factors that affect the rates of chemical reactions, predict the trend in the last column of the experimental record. Use complete sentences to explain the trend you predicted. You do not have to determine exact values for time; just describe the trend you would expect (increase or decrease) and why it occurs

Answer:

The time taken for the cross to become invisible decreases.

Explanation:

We know that one of the factors affecting the rate of reaction is the concentration of reactants. From the collision theory, we know that the higher the concentration of reactants, the greater the possibility of effective collision between reactants leading ultimately to an increase in the rate of reaction. Increase in the rate of reaction implies that the reaction takes a shorter time to reach completion.

In the case of the reaction shown in the question, the point when the reaction is completed is observed by the time take for the cross mark to become invisible. If we look at the given data closely, we will notice that the volume of acid was held constant, the volume of thiosulphate was increased gradually while the volume of water was decreased accordingly. This implies that the concentration of the reactants was increased. Decreasing the volume of water increases reactant concentration.

As explained above, increase in reactant concentration increases the rate of reaction. Hence, the rate of reaction of the acid and thiosulphate increases as reactant concentration increases and the cross mark becomes invisible faster. This implies that in the last column for time taken for the cross to become invisible, the values of time decreases steadily as concentration of reactants increases.

Answer:

solution:-a homogenous mixture of two or more substances in relative amounts that can be varied continuously up to what is called the limit of solubility.

solute:-is a substance, usually a solid, that is dissolved in a solution, which is usually a liquid.

solvent:-substance, ordinarily a liquid, in which other materials dissolve to form a solution.

polar molecule:-is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative.

Nonpolar molecules occur when electrons are shared equal between atoms of a diatomic molecule or when polar bonds in a larger molecule cancel each other out.

concentration refers to the amount of a substance in a defined space.

HeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllllpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppFind the statement about Fusion that is false.
Pie

Fusion releases less energy than fission

fusion most commonly combines heavy isotopes of hydrogen into helium.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a form of reaction that involves the combination of two light nuclei to form one that is heavier in mass.

The other form is nuclear fission which is the splitting of heavier nuclei either spontaneously or when bombarded with other nuclei.

  • Nuclear fusion reactions in the core of stars powers the universe.
  • The reactions produces a huge amount of energy of a greater and massive order than fission reaction.
  • Small nuclei are involved in nuclear fusion and not the large ones.
  • Nuclear fusion degenerates into series of chain reactions that are extremely difficult to control.
