15 pts! Explain how the absorption of energy (heating) affects the speed of the particles in a substance.

Chemistry

Sophie [7]2 years ago

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Temperature has been severally defined as the measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body. Heat is a form of energy that exists due to temperature difference.

Given a body whose molecules has a speed = (3RT/M)^1/2; this implies that for a given mass of the substance, the velocity of its particles depends on the temperature of the substance.

However, absorption of heat increases the temperature of the body. Therefore, when heat is absorbed, the temperature increases and the speed of the particles of a substance increases according to the relation above.

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter D.

Explanation:

A. Has a fixed volume This is not the right answer, liquids and gases take the shape of the container in which they are.

B. Particles stay in a fixed position This answer is wrong, this characteristic is  of solids but not of liquids and gases.

C. No particle movement This characteristic is also of solids, in liquids and gases the particles can move.

D. Takes the shape of the container. This is the right answer, liquids and gases take the shape of the container.

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2(aq)) is proposed to follow a reaction mechanism of: Step 1: H2O2(aq) + Br–(aq)→H2O(
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Option (1) Br– is the catalyst, and the reaction follows a faster pathway with Br– than without

Explanation:

Let us consider the equation below:

Step 1:

H2O2(aq) + Br–(aq) → H2O(l) + BrO–(aq)

Step 2:

BrO–(aq) + H2O2(aq) → H2O(l) + O2(g) + Br–(aq)

From the above equation, we can see that Br– is unchanged.

This implies that Br– is the catalyst as catalyst does not take part in a chemical reaction but they create an alternate pathway to lower the activation energy in order for the reaction to proceed at a much faster rate to arrive at the products.
