Answer:
Option (A) the solid X is ground to a fine powder.
Explanation:
X(s) + 2B(aq) → X+(aq) + B2(g)
In the reaction above, the rate of the reaction will be highest, when X being a solid is ground to fine powder.
Grounding X to fine powder simply means increasing the surface area of X.
An increase in surface area of reactants will definitely increase the rate of reaction because the particles of the solid will collide with the right orientation and hence speed up the reaction rate.
Since the barium ion will be isoelectronic to the nearest noble gas, which is xenon, the electronic configuration for Ba2+ is: [Xe]
Answer: 5 is the molarity
Explanation:
The molarity formula is moles over liters and that in your case is 2.50 moles divided by .500 L which results in 5 which is your answear hope this helped god bless
