Rate of ReactionStudent A investigated the rate of reaction between calcium carbonate (marble chips)and hydrochloric acid. The student collected 10.0 cm3 of gas produced after 15seconds.Student B investigated the rate of reaction between magnesium and hydrochloricacid. The student collected 19.5 cm3 of gas produced after 10 seconds.Which student’s investigation had a faster rate of reaction?
Imagine you wanted to compute the initial rate of a reaction, where the reactantscombined changed color or fluoresced, however, the reaction was far too fast to detect via the human eye alone. How would you go about determining the reaction rate if you only had a limited volume of the reactants at your disposal? Suggest a suitable method for the experiment.
Which of the following conditions can decrease the reaction rate? Select one a When the reactants exist in solution b. When the reactants exist in the same state C. When the particle size of the reactants are increased d. When the reactants are gas molecules
Please complete the question typed ONLY. Please do not use handwriting.
Which of the following statements is true about reaction rates? A Reaction rates can be predicted from the coefficients of the balanced equation. B Reactants usually disappear faster than the products appear. C Reactants usually disappear slower than the products appear. D Reaction rates can only be determined by experimentation.
Use the graphic below to answer the following question. Which letter choice would have the slowest reaction rate and why? Question 8 options: A because it will have the most collisions due to its large surface area. C because it will have the fewest collisions due to its large surface area C because it will have the fewest collisions due to its small surface area A because it will have the most collisions due to its small surface area.
Consider the reaction: 4 PH3 (g) à P4 (g) + 6 H2 (g). If, in a certain experiment over a specific time period, 0.036 mol of PH3 is consumed in a 1.0-L container each second of reaction, which of the following is correct about the production rate of H2? Choose one option only. Options: a. 0.0090 M/sec b. 0.024 M/sec c. 0.054 M/sec d. 0.216 M/sec e. None of the above
The rate of a reaction is how quickly the reaction goes to completion. If two reactions have the same amount of reactant, increasing the rate does not increase the amount of product produced, it simply reduces the time that it takes to make the product. Using the internet , research the one factors below that affect the rate of a chemical reaction. 1. Reactant concentration ( add an example and be very detailed add graphs as well) Be sure to include the following terms as they relate to chemical reactions: collision theory Be very detailed potential energy diagrams be very detailed activation energy be very detailed Your work should be written in complete sentences, and assume your audience is grade 11 chemistry students who do not understand this unit. Make sure all research is put into your own words!

Answer the two questions in the space provided. Explain your thinking for both question, on why you pick it
According to the kinetic molecular theory for a reaction to take place the reactants must collide. However, not all collisions will result in a reaction. What two criteria must be met for a collision to be effective (result in a reaction)?
4. A. B. C. D. E. 5. A. Which one of the following statements is correct? A catalyst that is present in the same phase as the reacting molecules is a heterogeneous catalyst. Elementary steps involving the simultaneous collision of two molecules are bimolecular. Absorption refers to the binding of molecules to a surface. Because the fast step limits the overall reaction rate, it is called the rate- determining step. A balanced chemical reaction equation details the individual steps that occur in the course of a reaction. A reaction NO₂(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO₂(g) obeys the following rate law: Rate = K[NO₂]².
