What is the activation energy of a reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

activation energy, in chemistry, the minimum amount of energy that is required to activate atoms or molecules to a condition in which they can undergo chemical transformation or physical transport. In transition-state theory, the activation energy is the difference in energy content between atoms or molecules in an activated or transition-state configuration and the corresponding atoms and molecules in their initial configuration. The activation energy is usually represented by the symbol Ea in mathematical expressions for such quantities as the reaction rate constant, k = Aexp(−Ea/RT), and the diffusion coefficient, D = Doexp(−Ea/RT).

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bond(s) in 1 mole of CH₄ molecules is:_____ **Any help would be greatly appreciated!**
frozen [14]

Answer:

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH is 1644 kJ

Explanation:

Since there are 4 C-H bonds in CH₄, the bond dissociation energy of 1 mol of CH₄ is 4 × bond dissociation energy of one C-H bond.

From the table one mole is C-H bond requires 411 kJ, that is 411 kJ/mol. Therefore, 4 C-H bonds would require 4 × 411 kJ = 1644 kJ

So, the bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH₄ is 1644 kJ

What characteristics do the elements in a group share? In a period, share?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The elements in same period have same principle quantum number or energy shell.

The elements in same group shows similar chemical and properties.

Explanation:

Inn group:

The elements in same group i.e present in vertical column shows similar chemical properties.

The elements in same group having same number of valance electrons. while in chemical reaction bonds are break and formed and valance electrons are involved. That's why elements in same group having same number of valance electrons and shows similar chemical properties.

In period:

While as we move from left to right the number of valance electron increase by one in every element. But the electron is added in same shell which means that their physical and chemical properties are different but principal quantum number is same.
