How does a catalyst increase the rate of a reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Norma-Jean [14]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C) It provides a lower activation energy for the reaction is the correct answer.

Explanation:

  • A catalyst increases the rate of the chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy for a reaction.
  • Catalyst is used to increase the reaction rate, it remains unchanged in the chemical reaction and it does not change the equilibrium constant.
  • Activation energy is a minimum amount of energy required to initiate the reaction.

A sample of gas has a volume of 20.0 mL at STP. What will the volume be if the temperature is changed to 546 K and the pressure
Ostrovityanka [42]

The volume did not change, it remained at 20 ml

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

20 ml a sample gas at STP(273 K, 1 atm)

T₂=546 K

P₂=2 atm

Required

The volume

Solution

Combined gas Law :

\tt \dfrac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}

Input the value :

\tt \dfrac{1\times 20}{273}=\dfrac{2\times V_2}{546}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{1\times 20\times 546}{273\times 2}\\\\V_2=20~ml

The volume does not change because the pressure and temperature are increased by the same ratio as the initial conditions (to 2x)

Define an ideal gas and explain under which conditions you may reasonably approximate a real gas as an ideal gas. Also mention c
TEA [102]

Answer:

High temperature and low pressure

Explanation:

According to the kinetic molecular theory, gases are composed of small particles called molecules which are in constant motion.

At high temperature and low pressure, gas molecules possess high kinetic energy and move at high velocities hence intermolecular interaction is almost none existent and real gases approach the behavior of ideal gases.

Two steps in a synthesis of the analgesic ibuprofen include a carbonyl condensation reaction, followed by an alkylation reaction
Tresset [83]
Ibuprofen is synthesized by reacting ethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)acetate with base, the base abstracts the acidic proton and enolate is formed which on reaction with diethyl carbonate generates diethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)malonate (A). diethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)malonate on treatment with Base again looses the acidic proton and forms enolate. The enolate with treatment with Methyl Iodide yields diethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-2-methylmalonate (B). diethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-2-methylmalonate on hydrolysis give Ibuprofen.
