Answer:

Radical chain initiator

Explanation:

The peroxide here serves as a radical chain initiator. In the field of chemistry the radical initiatives are those substances that are used in industrial processes like polymer synthesis. These initiatives have weak bonds generally and they're mostly used to create free radicals. These radicals are atoms that have odd numbers of electrons. Peroxide is an example of such.

Consider the following gas phase reaction:
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

2NO(g) + O2(g) --> 2NO2(g)

now 400 ml of NO × 2 mol of NO2/2 mol of NO

= 400 ml of NO2

now 500 ml of O2 × 2 mol of NO2/1 mol of O2

= 1000 ml of NO2

now 400 ml of NO2 × 1 mol of O2/2 mol of NO

= 200 ml

subtract that from 500 ml of total i.e. 500-200 =300 ml

The total volume of the reaction mixture is 1000 ml -300ml = 700 ml

Which of the following is true for balancing equations?
algol [13]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

An equation with the equal amount and proportion of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction is commonly referred to as a balanced chemical equation.

The law of conservation of matter asserts that no observable and empirical change in the amount of matter occurs within a conventional chemical process. As a result, each element in the product would have the same equal amount or numbers of atoms as the reactants.
