Electron transfer theory describes the parameters which control the rate at which an electron is transferred from one atom or molecule to another.

<h3>What was the basic principle of Marcus theory?</h3>

In theoretical chemistry, Marcus theory is a theory originally developed by Rudolph A. Marcus, starting in 1956, to explain the rates of electron transfer reactions – the rate at which an electron can move or jump from one chemical species.
Marcus' method (also referred to as Marcus's method and Method of Marcus) is a structural analysis method which was designed to design concrete slabs with rectangular, orthogonal shapes. It represents an adaptation of the strip method.
Marcus Hush theory (M-H theory) was developed in 1956 by Rudolph A. Marcus which explains the fundamentals of the redox/ electron transfer reactions in terms of the rate of jumping/moving an electron from oxidant species (electron donor) to the reductant (electron acceptor).
The "Marcus Inverted Region" (MIR) is that part of the function of rate constant versus free energy where a chemical reaction becomes slower as it becomes more exothermic.

We want to see how we can model the difference: -8 - 3 + 3

The correct option is D:

"add 3 positive counters and 3 negative counters"

We know that Marcus starts with 8 negative counters, corresponding to the first term in our difference.

Now, let's study the math of our expression.

-8 - 3 + 3

Remember that we can perform the operation in any order we want, so we can write this as:

-8 + (-3 + 3)

Notice that the thing inside the parentheses is equal to zero, so we have:

- 8 + (-3 + 3) = -8

So to not change the value, we add 3 and we subtract 3.

Now if we have 8 negative counters, and we want to add 3 positive counters and not change the value, then we also need to add 3 negative counters to "cancel" the 3 positive counters we added.

Then the correct option is D.

Which graph represents a function that is decreasing at a nonconstant rate?

Tasya [4]

Answer: C

since the line isn't straight, the slope/function is decreasing but not at a constant rate

What value of c makes the polynomial below a perfect square? x^2+10+c

Inessa05 [86]

Answer: Hi there

To find the last term in order to obtain the perfect square, take the middle term, divide it by 2, and take its square.

10 ÷ 2 = 5

5^2 = 25

Thus, the equation would be x^2 + 10x + 25

The answer is 25
