Introduction: Reaction rates are also influenced by surface area and concentration. The surface area of a solid is a measure of

how much of the solid is exposed to other substances. The concentration of a substance is a measure of how many molecules of that substance are present in a given volume. Question: How do surface area and concentration affect reaction rates

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Surface area has to do with the number of solid particles that are exposed at a given time and is capable of colliding with other reactant particles. When more surface area is exposed for reaction, then it means that more particles are likely to collide with each other leading to faster chemical reaction rates. When few particles are exposed for reaction (low surface area) then less collisions occur and the rate of reaction is decreased.

Similarly, concentration refers to the amount of substance present. The greater the amount of substance present, the greater the likelihood of collision between particles and the greater the rate of reaction and vice versa.

Which one of the following characteristics indicates the presence of weak intermolecular forces in a liquid?A) none of the above
grin007 [14]

Answer:

C) a low heat of vaporization.

Explanation:

It is C) a low heat of vaporization.

Low heat of vaporization means less amount of energy is required to vaporize a liquid. This further means the liquid has weaker intermolecular force of attraction that is why on provide lesser heat only it vaporizes.

Low vapor pressure, high boiling point and high critical temp. all contribute to strong intermolecular forces in a liquid

Gaseous methane (CH₄) reacts with gaseous oxygen gas (O₂) to produce gaseous carbon dioxide (CO₂) and gaseous water (H₂O) If 0.3
AveGali [126]

Answer : The percent yield of CO_2 is, 68.4 %

Solution : Given,

Mass of CH_4 = 0.16 g

Mass of O_2 = 0.84 g

Molar mass of CH_4 = 16 g/mole

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

Molar mass of CO_2 = 44 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of CH_4 and O_2.

\text{ Moles of }CH_4=\frac{\text{ Mass of }CH_4}{\text{ Molar mass of }CH_4}=\frac{0.16g}{16g/mole}=0.01moles

\text{ Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }O_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{0.84g}{32g/mole}=0.026moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of O_2 react with 1 mole of CH_4

So, 0.026 moles of O_2 react with \frac{0.026}{2}=0.013 moles of CH_4

From this we conclude that, CH_4 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and O_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of CO_2

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of O_2 react to give 1 mole of CO_2

So, 0.026 moles of O_2 react to give \frac{0.026}{2}=0.013 moles of CO_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of CO_2

\text{ Mass of }CO_2=\text{ Moles of }CO_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }CO_2

\text{ Mass of }CO_2=(0.013moles)\times (44g/mole)=0.572g

Theoretical yield of CO_2 = 0.572 g

Experimental yield of CO_2 = 0.391 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of CO_2

\% \text{ yield of }CO_2=\frac{\text{ Experimental yield of }CO_2}{\text{ Theretical yield of }CO_2}\times 100

\% \text{ yield of }CO_2=\frac{0.391g}{0.572g}\times 100=68.4\%

Therefore, the percent yield of CO_2 is, 68.4 %

The real purpose of the Milgram study was to investigate 1. the effects of punishment. 2. memory and learning. 3. the effect of
miskamm [114]

Answer:

1. the effects of punishment.

Explanation:

Stanley Milgram (1933 - 1984) was a graduate American psychologist at Yale University who conducted the Little Worlds Experience (the source of the concept of the six degrees of separation) and the Milgram Experience on obedience to authority.

Milgram was interested in researching how far people would go in obeying an instruction if it involved harming another person.

The study aimed to observe how easily ordinary people could be influenced into committing atrocities.
