explain with example how the physical state of reactants and products can be shown in chemical equation

Chemistry

stiv31 [10]4 years ago

In chemical equations, we usually state the state symbol behind each of the reactants and products. We use (s) for solid, (l) for liquid, (g) for gas, and (aq) for aqueous solutions.


For example, here's an equation of sodium reacting with water:

2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)


As you can see, each behind each substance is the state symbol. This is how we presents physical states in chemical equations.

What is the effect of a high activation energy on a chemical reaction?
RSB [31]

Answer:

option D= it makes the reaction harder to start.

Explanation:

Activation energy:

It is the minimum amount of energy required by chemical specie to start the chemical reaction.

Explanation:

The activation energy is inversely related to the rate of reaction. The higher the activation energy the slower will be the reaction rate.

Molecules are colloid with each other and gain kinetic energy if this energy is higher than the transition state energy then molecules easily undergo the chemical reaction. Because molecules easily overcome the barrier i.e transition state.

When the kinetic energy is lower than molecules can not pass the barrier. They require the input which is called activation energy to pass the barrier.

The higher the activation energy, the difficult for the reaction to proceed. Catalyst are used to lower the activation energies because in this way lower will be the transition state, and higher will be the reaction rate.

_____ is a mixture of dead organic material that can be used as fertilizer
AleksAgata [21]

The answer is compost. It is an organic matter that has been disintegrated and cast-off as fertilizer and soil alteration. This is a significant component in organic farming. The procedure of composting necessitates creating a mound of wet organic substance identified as green wastes – these are leaves, food waste and waiting for the resources to collapse into humus after weeks or months.
