<span>One of the main tenets of kinetic molecular theory is the the molecules of gas conserve their kinetic energy perfectly when they collide with each other (or the walls of the container for that matter), thus keeping them in constant motion. Since this is the definition of then elastic collision (one in which kinetic energy is maintained), then the answer is "d. are perfectly elastic".</span>
Answer:
b
. Irradiated food is shown to not be radioactive.
Explanation:
If it can be proven that irradiated food is not radioactive, then it will effective dispute the idea that irradiated food are less safe to eat.
- An irradiated food is one in which ionizing radiations have been employed to improve food quality.
- Thus, bacteria and other food spoilers can be exterminated from the food.
- Most irradiated food do not contain radiation and are fit for consumption.
If it can be proven, that this is true, then it will challenge the idea that irradiated foods are not safe.
Answer: 350 kj/mol
Explanation:
As shown below this expression gives the activation energy of the reverse reaction:
EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |
1) The activation energy, EA is the difference between the potential energies of the reactants and the transition state:
EA = energy of the transition state - energy of the reactants.
2) The activation energy of the forward reaction given is:
EA = energy of the transition state - energy of [ NO2(g) + CO(g) ] = 75 kj/mol
3) The negative enthalpy change - 275 kj / mol for the forward reaction means that the products are below in the potential energy diagram, and that the potential energy of the products, [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] is equal to 75 kj / mol - 275 kj / mol = - 200 kj/mol
4) For the reverse reaction the reactants are [NO(g) + CO2(g)], and the transition state is the same than that for the forward reaction.
5) The difference of energy between the transition state and the potential energy of [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] will be the absolute value of the change of enthalpy plus the activation energy for the forward reaction:
EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |
EA reverse reaction = 75 kj / mol + |-275 kj/mol | = 75 kj/mol + 275 kj/mol = 350 kj/mol.
And that is the answer, 350 kj/mol
Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
What we have to consider is the hybridation of the three carbon atoms we are asked in this question .
Hybridization # bonds Angle
sp³ 4 109.5º
sp² 3 + 1 pi bond 120º
sp 2 + 2 pi bonds 180º
Carbon atom (a) is bonded to two atoms: Carbon (b) and one Hydrogen. It has a triple bond to Carbon (b). Therefore its hybridization is sp with two pi bonds, and for sp hybridization we know the angle is 180 º.
The same hybridization sp happens to carbon (b) bonded to Carbon (c) and C(a) using one sp bond to Carbon (a) and 2 pi bonds; it is also bonded using the other sp to Carbon (c). The angle is therefore 180 between Carbons b and c.
Carbon C is bonded to 4 atoms, therefore, its hybridization is sp³ and the angles with these 4 atoms will be 109.5 º tehedral ( one bond to OH, one to C(b), and 2 to H ) .
