The activation energy of a reaction is the minimum energy that must be overcome in order for the reaction to take place. One way of reaching the activation energy is by manipulating the process conditions like pressure or temperature. But the most common method is by adding an enzyme. An enzyme speeds up the rate of the reaction but does not actively take part in it.
An analogy would be pushing heavy wooden block down a slope. No matter how many people push on it, the block won't move because of friction. But if you spill oil on the floor, the block would effortlessly move down the slope. The oil here is like an enzyme in a reaction.
Answer:
42.3moles
Explanation:
The chemical equation given in this question is as follows:
H2 + O2 → H2O
However, this equation is unbalanced, the balanced chemical equation is as follows:
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
This equation shows that;
2 moles of hydrogen gas (H2) will produce 2 moles of water (H2O)
Hence, If 42.3 moles of water (H2O) are produced, 42.3 × 2/2
= 42.3moles of hydrogen was reacted.
Answer:
8 electrons
Explanation:
As per the <u>octet rule</u>, the atoms possess a tendency to bond in a manner that every atom must have at least eight(8) electrons in its outermost/valence shell. It can be done either by sharing, gaining, or losing electrons from one atom to another. According to this rule, flourine would have 8 electrons in its outer shell after two shared electrons are given to it.
Density is equal to mass divided by volume.
So D=118/12
D=9.83
