Answer:

The second run will be faster - true, the increased surface area of catalyst will increase the rate of reaction

The second run will have the same rate as the first - possible, in case there is a factor other than catalyst limiting the reaction

The second run has twice the surface area - yes, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm

Explanation:

A catalyst is a material which speeds up a reaction without being consumed in the process. A heterogeneous catalyst is one which is of a different phase than the reactants. The effectiveness of a catalyst is dependent on the available surface area. The first step for this question is to determine the total available surface area of catalyst in both processes.

Step 1: Determine radius of large sphere

$V_{L}=\frac{4}{3}*pi*{r_{L}}^{3}$

$10=\frac{4}{3}*pi*{r_{L}}^{3}$

${r_{L}}^{3}=\frac{7.5}{pi}$

$r_{L}=1.337cm$

Step 2: Determine surface area of large sphere

$A_{L}=4*pi*{r_{L}}^{2}$

$A_{L}=4*pi*1.337^{2}$

$A_{L}=22.463 cm^{2}$

Step 3: Determine radius of small sphere

$V_{s}=\frac{4}{3}*pi*{r_{s}}^{3}$

$1.25=\frac{4}{3}*pi*{r_{s}}^{3}$

${r_{s}}^{3}=\frac{0.9375}{pi}$

$r_{s}=0.668cm$

Step 4: Determine surface area of small sphere

$A_{s}=4*pi*{r_{s}}^{2}$

$A_{s}=4*pi*0.668^{2}$

$A_{s}=5.607 cm^{2}$

Step 5: Determine total surface area of 8 small spheres

$A_{S}=8*A_{s}$

$A_{S}=8*5.607$

$A_{S}=44.856 cm^{2}$

$A_{L}=22.463 cm^{2}$ - Surface area of 1 large sphere

$A_{S}=44.856 cm^{2}$ - Surface area of 8 small spheres

Options:

The second run will be faster - true, the increased surface area of catalyst will increase the rate of reaction
The second run will be slower - false, the increased surface area of catalyst will increase the rate of reaction
The second run will have the same rate as the first - possible, in case there is a factor other than catalyst limiting the reaction
The second run has twice the surface area - yes, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm
The second run has eight times the surface area - no, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm
The second run has 10 times the surface area - no, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm

Carbon and silicon are tetravalent but ge sn pb show di valency. Why

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Carbon and silicon both are tetravalent elements as compared to germanium, tin, and lead which are divalent.

That's because Ge, tin, and Pb show inert pair effect and has a greater nuclear effective charge on the 's' electrons due to poor shielding effect. .That's why these elements are not able to share their valence electrons while carbon and silicon does and show "catenation" which is the ability to form long chain molecules.

Which is NOT part of the definition of matter

qaws [65]

Answer:

Everything that has mass and takes up space is matter. Every day, you find something usual that either does't have mass or else don't take up space. Those things are non-matter. Basically, any type of energy or any abstract concept is an example of something that does not have matter.
