Answer:
The statement that is not true is: 'Temperature does not affect the reaction rate'.
Explanation:
a) Temperature can change a reaction rate. <u> This is true</u>
Increasing the temperature increases the reaction rates because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction.
For example, the time taken to melt a metal will be much higher at a lower temperature but it will decrease as soon as we increase the temperature
b) The amount of reactants can increase the reaction rate.<u> This is true</u>
A higher concentration of reactants leads to more effective collisions per unit time, which leads to an increased reaction rate.
c) Temperature can decrease the reaction rate. <u>This is true </u>
Decreasing the temperature decreases the reaction rates because of the decrease in the number of high energy collisions. It will result in a slower reaction.
d) Temperature does not affect the reaction rate. <u>This is not true. </u>
The reaction rate is temperature dependent. The reaction rate increases with higher temperature and decreases with lower temperature.
Answer:
The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which it change state from solid to liquid is called crystallization point.
Answer:
HClO 7.54
Explanation:
Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a weakest acid because the pKa value of Hypochlorous acid is very high among the options given in the activity. pKa is a method which is used in order to identify the strength of an acid. The higher the value of pKa of a liquid, lower the strength of an acid while lower the value of pKa of chemical, higher the strength of an acid. In the options, HClO2 is a strong acid due to high lower pKa value.
