Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Rate of diffusion is defined as the total movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration.
The interaction between medium and the material is responsible for the rate of diffusion of a material or substance.
A small concentration gradient means small difference in the number of molecules taking part in a reaction. So, when there no large difference between the concentration then there won't be much difference in the rate of diffusion of a material.
Whereas a higher concentration of molecules will lead to more number of collisions due to which frequency of molecules increases. Therefore, rate of diffusion will also increase.
Small molecule size will also lead to increases in rate of diffusion. This is because according to Graham's law rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to molar mass of an element. Hence, smaller size molecule will have smaller mass. As a result, rate of diffusion will be more.
High temperature means more kinetic energy of molecules due to which more number of collisions will be there. Hence, rate of diffusion will also increase.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options a small concentration gradient is least likely to increase the rate of diffusion.
Answer:
to VSEPR theory, the shape of a molecule is related to the organization of the central atom's valence shell electrons. The valence shell electrons are all negatively charged and therefore are constantly repelling each other. This repulsion is what gives a molecule its three-dimensional shape.
Answer:
Final concentration of C at the end of the interval of 3s if its initial concentration was 3.0 M, is 3.06 M and if the initial concentration was 3.960 M, the concentration at the end of the interval is 4.02 M
Explanation:
4A + 3B ------> C + 2D
In the 3s interval, the rate of change of the reactant A is given as -0.08 M/s
The amount of A that has reacted at the end of 3 seconds will be
0.08 × 3 = 0.24 M
Assuming the volume of reacting vessel is constant, we can use number of moles and concentration in mol/L interchangeably in the stoichiometric balance.
From the chemical reaction,
4 moles of A gives 1 mole of C
0.24 M of reacted A will form (0.24 × 1)/4 M of C
Amount of C formed at the end of the 3s interval = 0.06 M
If the initial concentration of C was 3 M, the new concentration of C would be (3 + 0.06) = 3.06 M.
If the initial concentration of C was 3.96 M, the new concentration of C would be (3.96 + 0.06) = 4.02 M
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The same amount of matter is present before and after chemical and physical changes. Matter cannot be created or destroyed
