Answer:

CH4

Explanation:

The number of moles of carbon and hydrogen has been given as follows:

C = ​0.300 mol​ ​

H = ​1.20 mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.300)

C = 0.300 ÷ 0.300 = 1

H = 1.20 ÷ 0.300 = 4

The empirical ratio of Carbon and Hydrogen is 1:4, hence, the empirical formula is CH4

A catalyst can increase the rate of a reaction ________. Select one: a. by increasing the overall activation energy (Ea) of the
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

by providing an alternative pathway with a lower activation energy

Explanation:

Cataysts are the substances that neither consumed nor produced during a chemical reaction, but increase the rate of the reaction.

So, catalysts remain chemically unchnaged after the completion of the reaction.

For a reaction to occur, reactants molecule must collide and successful collisions lead to product formation.

A certain minimum amount of energy is required for successful collision. This minimum amounr of energy is called activation energy.

One way to increase speed of reaction is to provide energy to the reactants  and other way to increase speed is to provide alternate pathway with lower activation energy.

Catalyst increases a rate of reaction by providing an alternate pathway with lower activation energy.

Therefore, the correct option is option b 'by providing an alternative pathway with a lower activation energy'
