Gold has a heavy enough nucleus that its electrons must travel at speeds nearing the speed of light to prevent them from falling into the nucleus. This relativistic effect applies to those orbitals that have appreciable density at the nucleus, such as s and p orbitals. These relativistic electrons gain mass and as a consequence, their orbits contract. As these s and (to some degree) p orbits are contracted, the other electrons in d and f orbitals are better screened from the nucleus and their orbitals actually expand.
Since the 6s orbital with one electron is contracted, this electron is more tightly bound to the nucleus and less available for bonding with other atoms. The 4f and 5d orbitals expand, but can't be involved in bond formation since they are completely filled. This is why gold is relatively unreactive.
Hope it helps
Answer : All of the above are valid expressions of the reaction rate.
Explanation :
The given rate of reaction is,
The expression for rate of reaction for the reactant :
![\text{Rate of disappearance of }NH_3=-\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NH_3]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20disappearance%20of%20%7DNH_3%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNH_3%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\text{Rate of disappearance of }O_2=-\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{d[O_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20disappearance%20of%20%7DO_2%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B7%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
The expression for rate of reaction for the product :
![\text{Rate of formation of }NO_2=+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20formation%20of%20%7DNO_2%3D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20formation%20of%20%7DH_2O%3D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BH_2O%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
From this we conclude that, all the options are correct.
B and c...will lose electron(s) in forming an Ion.
P is an Anion
b..Fe. and c...Pb form Cations (+) by losing electrons.
d. Se is an Anion.
Students performed a procedure similar to Part II of this
experiment (Analyzing Juices for Vitamin C Content) as described in the
procedure section. Given that molarity of DCP is 9.98x10-4 M, it took 16.34 ml
of DCP to titrate 10 mL of sample.
Amount of ascorbic acid = 0.050 L sample (0.01634 L DCP/0.01
L sample)( 9.98x10-4 mol DCP/L DCP)(1 mol Ascorbic acid/ 1mol DCP)(176.124
g/mol)(1000mg/1g)= 14.36 mg ascorbic acid
Answer:
That the enzyme is a protein
Explanation:
Remember the proteins are groups of thousands of amino acids, by their owns, since they are very small units, they can not act as a catalyst.
But as a polymer, the protein enzyme, have different shape, size and physical and chemical properties than a single monomer.
Remember also the proteins to be active, they need certain number of amino acids join together to form a specific shape that is going to match with another molecule to speed the chemical reaction and act as an enzyme.
