Which could be the catalyst in a chemical reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
AlekseyPX3 years ago
4 0

Answer:  C. enzyme

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.

Enzymes are proteins that reduce the activation energy of biological reaction. Enzymes increase the speed of a reaction and help it to run faster. Thus they are also called as bio catalysts.

Activated complex is the transition state which is very unstable and is formed during the course when reactants are converted to products.

A certain substance X has a normal freezing point of -6.4 C and a molal freezing point depression constant Kf= 3.96 degrees C.kg
Brut [27]

Answer:  1.0\times 10^2g

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=(-6.4-(13.6))^0C=7.2^0C = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte like urea)

K_f = freezing point constant = 3.96^0C/m

m= molality

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}

Weight of solvent (X)= 950 g = 0.95 kg  

Molar mass of non electrolyte (urea) = 60.06 g/mol

Mass of non electrolyte (urea) added = ?

7.2=1\times 3.96\times \frac{xg}{60.06 g/mol\times 0.95kg}

x=1.0\times 10^2g

Thus 1.0\times 10^2g urea was dissolved.

Consider the model of the nitrogen atom which electron configuration matches the model
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

           1s², 2s², 2p³  

Explanation:

The atomic number of Nitrogen is seven. So it contains seven protons and seven electrons in neutral form. Also, the electronic configuration cited above contains seven electrons among which two electrons are present in first shell and five electrons are present in valence shell respectively.

Knowing the gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s what is your weight?
wariber [46]
Weight varies dramatically if we leave earths surface.On the moon for example acceleration due to gravity is only 1.67m/s2 A 1.0-kg mass thus has a weight of 9.8 N on Earth and only about 1.7 N on the moon

The element N (nitrogen) is an example of a ___
mina [271]

Hello!

Elements are made up of atoms, and elements combine to make compounds. Compounds are made up of molecules, and molecules are made up of atoms.

Nitrogen is an element. It could be made up of one or many atoms. A mixture is made up of compounds, so it is not the answer.

Molecules and compounds are made up of different atoms and elements, but nitrogen is not a molecule or a compound.

There is such a thing as a nitrogen atom, though.

Therefore, your answer would be 2) Atom.

I hope this helps!
