Breaking a solid reactant into pieces results in

Chemistry
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

If one of the reactants is a solid, only the particles at the surface can partake in the reaction. Breaking the reactant into smaller pieces increases the surface and more particles are exposed to the reaction mixture. This results in an increased frequency of collisions and therefore a faster rate of reaction

Can you use molecular orbital theory to explain why fluorine is such a highly reactive gas?
vivado [14]
The F2 molecular orbital diagram shows 4e- are in the highest energy antibonding (destabilizing) molecular orbitals resulting in a bond order = 1.

Single bonds are easier to break and therefore more reactive. So the answer is yes.

how much heat is released when 70.9g of water at 66C cools to 25C? The specific heat of water is 1 cal/gC
Serga [27]

Answer:

-12162.47 joules (or -12000 joules when accounting for significant figures)

Explanation (btw I used 1 cal as 4.184 joules because SI units are better):

q = m c delta T

q = (70.9) (4.184) (25 - 66)  

q = (70.9) (4.184) (-41)

q = -12162.47 joules
