A catalyst lowers the activation energy for both the forward and the reverse reactions in an equilibrium system, so it has no ef

fect on the equilibrium position of a system. True False

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

  • Catalyst increases the rate of the reaction without affecting the equilibrium position.
  • Catalyst increases the rate via lowering the activation energy of the reaction.
  • This can occur via passing the reaction in alternative pathway (changing the mechanism).
  • The activation energy is the difference in potential energies between the reactants and transition state (for the forward reaction) and it is the difference in potential energies between the products and transition state (for the reverse reaction).
  • in the presence of a catalyst, the activation energy is lowered by lowering the energy of the transition state, which is the rate-determining step, catalysts reduce the required energy of activation to allow a reaction to proceed and, in the case of a reversible reaction, reach equilibrium more rapidly.
  • with adding a catalyst, both the forward and reverse reaction rates will speed up equally, which allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster.
  • Kindly, see the attached image.

<h2>Answer: </h2>

<u>The statement is</u><u> true </u>

<h2> Explanation: </h2>

When we add a catalyst to a system, both the forward and reverse reaction rates will speed up equally at the same time thereby allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster. But one thing that is very important to keep in mind that the addition of a catalyst has no effect on the final equilibrium position of the reaction because it only makes the reaction faster and nothing else.

Viết các đồng phân cấu tạo mạch hở của C4H6O2 cùng nhóm chức axit
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

+ axit

CH2=CH-CH2-COOH,

CH3-CH=CH-COOH (tính cả đồng phân hình học)

CH2=C(CH3)-COOH.

+ este

HCOOCH=CH-CH3 (tính cả đồng phân hình học)

HCOO-CH2-CH=CH2,

HCOOC(CH3)=CH2.

CH3COOCH=CH2

CH2=CH-COOCH3

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 2.16 moles SO₂

[Solve] grams (mass) SO₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[PT] Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of SO₂ - 32.07 + 2(16.00) = 64.07 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                     \displaystyle 2.16 \ mol \ SO_2(\frac{64.07 \ g \ SO_2}{1 \ mol \ SO_2})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:                                                         \displaystyle 138.391 \ g \ SO_2

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

138.391 g SO₂ ≈ 138 g SO₂

A sample of gas occupies 1.2 L at 12.0oC. Assuming pressure remains the same, what would be the volume (in L) of this gas at 67o
liraira [26]
V1/T1 = V2/T2
V1 = 1.2 L
T1 = 12.0 + 273 = 285 K
T2 = 67.0 +273 = 340 K

1.2/285 = V2 / 340
V2 = 1.4 L

How many moles are in 5.67x10^24 atoms of RbCl?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

<h2>9.42 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{5.67 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 9.418604...

We have the final answer as

<h3>9.42 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
