Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Rate of diffusion is defined as the total movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration.
The interaction between medium and the material is responsible for the rate of diffusion of a material or substance.
A small concentration gradient means small difference in the number of molecules taking part in a reaction. So, when there no large difference between the concentration then there won't be much difference in the rate of diffusion of a material.
Whereas a higher concentration of molecules will lead to more number of collisions due to which frequency of molecules increases. Therefore, rate of diffusion will also increase.
Small molecule size will also lead to increases in rate of diffusion. This is because according to Graham's law rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to molar mass of an element. Hence, smaller size molecule will have smaller mass. As a result, rate of diffusion will be more.
High temperature means more kinetic energy of molecules due to which more number of collisions will be there. Hence, rate of diffusion will also increase.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options a small concentration gradient is least likely to increase the rate of diffusion.
This is a decomposition reaction, where ammonium nitrate is heated and decomposed to gaseous water and dinitrogen oxide.
Formulas for reactants and products with states are as follows;
ammonium nitrate - NH₄NO₃ (s)
water - H₂O (g)
dinitrogen oxide - N₂O (g)
balanced reactions when the masses of both sides of the equation must be balanced
Balanced chemical equation
NH₄NO₃(s) ---> 2H₂O(g) + N₂O(g)
Answer:
division of atoms are neither created nor destroyed therefore atoms can only be rearranged
My educated guess should be the 3rd one
<span>As we know through the principle of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore, the energy removed from the water in order to make it freeze is absorbed by the surroundings. This is why the surroundings in which freezing is taking place are below freezing. This is more easily illustrated in the example of condensation. If you were to hold a plate over a pot of boiling water, some of the water would give its energy to the plate and condense on its surface.</span>
