Explanation:

The general formula of an alkane is given as;

CₙH₂ₙ₊₂

n is the number of the member;

For the 97th member in the series;

n = 97;

2n + 2 = 2(97) + 2 = 196

So, the 97th member is;

C₉₇H₁₉₆

This is how to apply the formula of alkanes which are saturated hydrocarbons to find any member of the series.

A possible mechanism for the gas phase reaction of NO and H2 is as follows: Step 1 2NO N2O2 Step 2 N2O2 + H2 N2O + H2O Step 3 N2

mel-nik [20]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Steps involved for the given reaction will be as follows.

Step 1: $2NO \Leftrightarrow N_{2}O_{2}$ (fast)

Rate expression for step 1 is as follows.

Rate = k $[NO]^{2}$

Step 2: $N_{2}O_{2} + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2}O + H_{2}O$

This step 2 is a slow step. Hence, it is a rate determining step.

Step 3. $N_{2}O + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2} + H_{2}O$ (fast)

Here, $N_{2}O_{2}$ is intermediate in nature.

All the steps are bimolecular and it is a second order reaction. Also, there is no catalyst present in this reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement step 1 is the rate determining step, concerning this mechanism is not directly supported by the information provided.

What is a term called gradient in Earth Science?

goblinko [34]

The gradient is the slope of a linear equation, represented in the simplest form as y = mx + b. In Earth Science, the gradient is usually used to measure how steep certain changes in elevation are.

In order to find the gradient in a topographical setting, one must know two things: the elevation of two points and the distance between the two points. Once these values are known, the gradient can be found by dividing the change in field value, or the change in elevation, by the distance. The higher the gradient value is, the steeper the slope is.
