What is the action of a catalyst

Chemistry
1 answer:
AfilCa [17]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction without being used up and remains chemically unchanged itself .

Explanation: For a reaction to take place the particles must collide with enough energy for bonds to break and reaction to occur .

BUT when a catalyst is present the reactants are able to react in a way that requires less energy ,leading to more successful collision so the reaction speeds up without the chemical composition of the catalyst being affected

NOTE: the catalyst must be chosen to suit the particular reaction

How many grams of glucose are needed to prepare 144.3 mL of a 1.4%(m/v) glucose solution?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

2.0202 grams

Explanation:

1.4% (m/v) glucose solution means: 1.4g glucose/100mL solution.

so ?g glucose = 144.3 mL soln

Now apply the conversion factor, and you have:

?g glucose = 144.3mL soln x (1.4g glucose/100mL soln).

so you have (144.3x1.4/100) g glucose= 2.0202 grams

Is material that has a density of 0.2g/ml good for building a bridge or for making couch cushions
lisov135 [29]
D = 0.2 g / ml = 0.2 g / cm³
For example, density of steel is 7.85 g / cm³.
Density of pure water is 1.0 g/cm³. An object which has a density < 1.0 g/cm³ will float in water.
Answer: Material that has a density of 0.2 g/ml ( 0.2 g/cm³ ) is good for making couch cushions.

Bi2(CO3)3<br> Name of this compound
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The name of this compound is :

Bi2(CO3)3 = Bismuth Carbonate

Explanation:

The name of the compound is derived from the name of the elements present  in it.

The rule followed while naming the compound are:

1. The first element (always the cation) is named as such .

2. The second element (The anion) end with "-ate ,  -ide ," etc

3. NO prefix is added while naming the first element.

For example : Bi2 can't be named as Dibismuth

Na2 = Can't be named as disodium

Hence the compound :

Bi2(CO3)3 contain two element : Bi and CO3. Here , Bi = cation (named as such) and CO3 = anion (named according to rules)

Bi = Bismuth

CO3 = carbonate

Bi2(CO3)3 = Bismuth Carbonate

The molecular mass of this compound is :

Molecular mass = 2 (mass of Bi) + 3(mass of C) + 6(mass of O)

= 2 (208.98)+3(12.01)+6(15.99)

= 597.987 u
