Question:
Sulfuric acid was once produced through the reaction of sulfur trioxide with water. Sulfur trioxide can form through the reaction of sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas. When nitrogen monoxide gas is added to the system, the reaction speeds up significantly because it proceeds through the following steps:
equations
Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how you know it is the catalyst, and describe how it increases the rate of the reaction.
Answer:
NO
It is present but not consumed
NO Lowers the activation energy of the reaction
Explanation:
A catalyst is a substance that is present in a chemical reaction and enables the reaction to occur at a faster rte but does not take part n the reaction
Therefore, whereby NO is not consumed, it is the catalyst
It functions by lowering the activation energy
Answer:
magnesium metal melts = physical change
magnesium metal ignites = chemical change
Explanation:
<em>Physical changes</em> are those in which the identity of the subtance <u>remains unaltered</u>. No new compounds are formed. They involve generally changes in <u>agreggation states of matter</u>: solid, liquid or gas. The first experiment, in which magnesium metal melts is a physical change because it only changes the state of matter, from solid to liquid, but it is still magnesium metal.
Conversely, <em>chemical changes</em> involve atoms combinations to form new compounds. The second experiment, in which magnesium metal ignites, is a chemical change. After the change, magnesium metal is no longer the metal but a metal oxide.
Answer:
<h2>0.059 moles</h2>
Explanation:
To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

where n is the number of moles
N is the number of entities
L is the Avogadro's constant which is
6.02 × 10²³ entities
From the question we have

We have the final answer as
<h3>0.059 moles</h3>
Hope this helps you
4 grams , mass cannot be created or destroyed. it has to be the same on both sides of the equation
