Just to make sure I’m right, is number 1 miss spelled??
Answer:
Lead atoms have 82 electrons and the shell structure is 2.8. 18.32. 18.4.
Explanation:
The ground state electron configuration of ground state gaseous neutral lead is [Xe].
Answer:
In the reaction, Fe2+ is oxidized and MnO4- is reduced (option c.)
Explanation:
MnO₄⁻ + 5Fe²⁺ + 8H⁺ ---> Mn²⁺ + 5Fe³⁺ + 4H2O
Look all, the oxidation number.
Increase the oxidation number means, oxidation.
Decrease the oxidation number means, reduction.
Fe²⁺ → Fe³⁺ is increasing, the ox. number. Fe is oxidizing.
In MnO₄⁻, the Mn acts with +7, so in Mn²⁺ has decrease the ox. number.
Mn has reducted.
3 - Effective collisions between reacting particles
For a chemical reaction to occur, reacting particles must collide - however, not all collisions result in a reaction. They must have enough energy in the collision to react (that is, be above the activation energy). The rate of reaction is determined by the rate of successful collisions, that is to say, the more successful collisions there are in a unit time, the faster the reaction rate.
