Scientists often need a catalyst to start a chemical reaction. They need to apply heat, acids, or other materials to jump-start the experiment.

Which phrase is the best definition of catalyst?

A. something hot
b. something acidic
c. something that triggers
d.something that is scientific

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

something that triggers

Explanation:

a catalyst helps move a reaction along

Answer 2

A catalyst shows some specificity in its action. It speeds up only a spontaneous reaction. The best definition of catalyst is something that triggers. The correct option is C.

What is a catalyst?

A substance which increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent change chemically or quantitatively is defined as the catalyst and the phenomenon is called catalysis.

It is believed that a catalyst actually participates in the chemical reaction that is speeds up. It forms temporary bonds with the reactants yielding an intermediate activated complex.

A typical example of catalyst is iron (Fe) which is used in the Haber process for the manufacture of ammonia. The catalyst is recovered unchanged in amount and chemical composition at the end of the reaction.

In most cases, a small amount of a catalyst can speed up reaction between large amounts of reactants. A catalyst shows maximum efficiency at optimum temperature.

Thus the correct option is C.

Which are not combination reactions?
Check all that apply.
A. 2H2O + 2H2 + O2
B. H2 + Cl2 → 2HCI
C. Fe + MgO + Mg + FeO
D. 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl

Answers

Answer:

A and c

Explanation:

In A the product is added to the reactant, so the real reaction is (2H2O = 2H2+O2).

In B hydrogen and clorine are combined to give hydrochloric acid and 2 is used to balance the reaction in the product, so it's a combination reaction .

In C the case is similar to A , so the real reaction is (Fe+MgO = Mg + FeO ) this is displacement reaction where a more reactive element takes place of a less reactive element .

In D sodium reacting with Chlorine to give sodium chloride ,so we conclude that it's a combination reaction .

Cuantos gramos de nitrato de potasio (KNO3) son necesarias para preparar 800ml de solucion al 12 % m/v

Answers

Answer:

96 g

Explanation:

Tomando en cuenta que estamos hablando de una solución de Nitrato de potasio cuya concentración es 12% m/V, debemos entonces usar la expresión de %m/V:

%m/V = msto / Vsol * 100   (1)

De esta expresión, debemos despejar la masa de soluto (msto) que es precisamente el valor que estamos buscando. Al hacer el despeje tenemos:

msto = %m/V * Vsol / 100    (2)

Ahora solo nos queda sustituir los valores dados y resolver:

msto = 12 * 800 / 100

msto = 96 g de KNO₃

HELP PLEASE IM GIVING BRAINLISTAs the amount of salt in water increases, the___________ of the water increases.

Question 2 options:

humidity


density


temperature


size

Answers

The answer is density

As the amount of salt in water increases, the density of the water increases. The more particles present in unit volume the more densely packed the substance.

What is density ?

Density of a substance is the measure of its mass per unit volume. Density describes how closely its particles are  packed. Densely packing means more particles in a unit volume.

The density of water is 1 g/ml. However, when the salinity increases, the salt solution increases in density by the solute particles. If the density of an object is less than water, it will float on it. Objects denser than water will sink on water.

As the salinity increases, density of water increases, makes the surface tension also increases, which best illustrates what happens in dead sea. Hence, option b is correct.

You have been given a choice of four elements; Lithium, Magnesium, Sulfur, and Bromine. You must decide which two elements would form a compound that has one atom of the metallic atom and two of the non-metallic atom in the final neutral compound. Which choice lists the two atoms with the correct formula for the compound?

A.
Magnesium and Sulfur; MgS2

B.
Lithium and Bromine; LiBr2

C.
Lithium and Sulfur; Li2S

D.
Magnesium and Bromine; MgBr2

Answers

The compound formed that has been neutral has been Magnesium and bromine. Thus, option D is correct.

The periodic table has been the arrangement of the elements with increasing atomic number and similarity in the reactivity.

The metals in the periodic table are elements that has been able to accept electrons, and nonmetals are the elements in the table that loses electrons to attain the stable noble gas configuration.

Formation of a neutral compound

The metal and nonmetal form the neutral compound when there has been the formation of stable compound with the complete configuration.

The magnesium and lithium has been metals, while sulfur and bromine are nonmetals. Bromine has been the element of group 17. It has been able to gain an electron. Sulfur has been the nonmetal and required 2 electrons to complete its octet.

Lithium has been the metal with one valence electron, and magnesium with 2 valence electrons.

The neutral compound to be formed has been consisted of one metal with 2 valence electrons, and 2 nonmetals with 1 valence electrons.

Thus, the compound formed that has been neutral has been Magnesium and bromine. Thus, option D is correct.

Cations are positively charged ions with fewer electrons than protons. To partake in reaction, metals lose electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration. It has lost valence electrons and wold have a positive charge associated with it.

Potassium is a group 1 element. A metal.

Potassium has 1 valence electron so it loses the valence electron to form a stable octet.

A potassium ion has a positive charge and therefore cannot be an anion but is a cation.

The group number pretty much denotes the number of valence electrons.

Group 1 = 1

Group 2 = 2

Group 17 = 7

Group 18 = 8

I don’t know the specifics of the lab but for a lab report you can find really good templates online. Start with an introduction that includes the question that the lab is trying to answer and include your hypothesis, your independent and dependent variables. Sometimes there may be a paragraph for any background information that was given previously but thats not always needed. Next paragraph have the material needed for the lab even if the lab is virtual and the procedures/ any safety guidelines that need to be included. Next paragraph have the data and any charts or graphs that were in the lab as well as your analysis of them. Say if your hypothesis was proven correct by the lab or not. Then have a concluding paragraph that restates the question that needed to be answered in the beginning, with the answer. Sometimes with the conclusion they may want a real world application for the results but again not necessarily. I hope this can help you. Good Luck!
