Answer:
METHOD 1: (surface area of a solid reactant) METHOD 2: (concentration or pressure of a reactant)
Explanation:
METHOD 1: (surface area of a solid reactant) Increasing the surface area of a solid reactant exposes more of its particles to attack. This results in an increased chance of collisions between reactant particles, so there are more collisions in any given time and the rate of reaction increases.
METHOD 2: (concentration or pressure of a reactant) Increasing the concentration means that we have more particles in the same volume of solution. This increases the chance of collisions between reactant particles, resulting in more collisions in any given time and a faster reaction. As we increase the pressure of reacting gases, we increase the rate of reaction.
Two electrons in it's first energy level; eight electrons in it's second energy level; and six valence electrons in it's outermost energy level
Answer : The initial volume was, 71.2 mL
Explanation :
To calculate the volume when temperature and pressure has changed, we use the equation given by combined gas law.
The equation follows:

where,
are the initial pressure, volume and temperature of the gas
are the final pressure, volume and temperature of the gas
We are given:
![P_1=0.85atm\\V_1=?\\T_1=66^oC=[66+273]K=339K\\P_2=0.60atm\\V_2=94mL\\T_2=43^oC=[43+273]K=316K](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P_1%3D0.85atm%5C%5CV_1%3D%3F%5C%5CT_1%3D66%5EoC%3D%5B66%2B273%5DK%3D339K%5C%5CP_2%3D0.60atm%5C%5CV_2%3D94mL%5C%5CT_2%3D43%5EoC%3D%5B43%2B273%5DK%3D316K)
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:


Therefore, the initial volume was, 71.2 mL
