Copper roofs on houses form patina (copper carbonates) over the course of years due to the reaction with oxygen, carbon dioxide

and water in the air. Which of the following statements is incorrect for this process?
A) The reaction has a low activation energy.
B) The reaction has a low reaction rate.
C) The formation of patina would occur faster during the summer than the winter.
D) The formation of patina would occur slower at higher altitudes due to lower concentration of reactant. E) Adding a catalyst would increase the rate of patina formation.

Answer:

The answer is "Choice A".

Explanation:

In this question, the choice A is wrong because when the copper panels on houses produce a patina (copper oxide) through occur as a consequence of reactions from oxygen and water in the air, these reaction does not have low activation energy because lower activation energy that is stored in a faster response rate.

explain why the hydrogen atoms in a hydrogen gas molecule form nonpolar covalent bonds but oxygen and hydrogen atoms in water mo
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards itself and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

Non polar covalent bond:

It is the bond where both bonded atoms share the pair of electron equally.

For example:

Hydrogen gas (H₂) is non polar covalent compound because the electronegativity of both bonded atoms are same. No poles are created that's why this is non polar covalent compound.

Polar covalent bond:

It is the bond where both bonded atoms share the pair of electron unequally.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive and bond is polar.

Describe the temperature changes that occur in ice as energy is added, starting in the frozen state and ending in the vapor stat
Ket [755]

Explanation:

When water is frozen then it is known as ice and its state is solid. So, its molecules will be held closer to each other as they are held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction.

As a result, its temperature will be minimum as its molecules have least kinetic energy.

It is known that kinetic energy of a substance is directly proportional to temperature.

As,            K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

where            K.E = kinetic energy

                       T = temperature

                       k = boltzmann constant

When solid changes into liquid state then it means molecules of a substance has gained kinetic energy due to which there occurs more collisions between the molecules.

Hence, temperature of substance also increases.

Whereas when liquid state of a substance changes intro vapor state then it means that more kinetic energy has gained by the molecules due to which there will be much more collisions between the molecules.

Hence, temperature will be maximum in vapor state.

How much energy is needed to warm 7.40g of water by 55 degress C?
zloy xaker [14]
<span>E = mCdT
E = energy, m = mass, C = specific heat capacity, dT = change in temperature.
526 = 0.074C x 17
E = 0.074C x 55
Divide the equations
E/526 = (0.074C x 55)/(0.074C x 17) = 55/17
E = (55 x 526)/17 = 1702 J</span>

How do evaporation and condensation relate to heat
ale4655 [162]
<span>Evaporation and condensation is caused by heat. That is how they are related. Heat causes the liquid to evaporate and float into the atmosphere which causes the formation of clouds.

Hope this helped. Have a great day!</span>
