The reaction of the alkene, ethylene, with H2 produces ethane as a product. However, the reaction is incredibly slow in the absence of a catalyst, such as platinum metal. What is the role of the catalyst in speeding up the reaction?
Raising the activation energy by breaking the bonds of hydrogen molecules.
By bringing together the hydrogen atoms and alkene on the same metal surface, thereby lowering the activation energy.
By decreasing the number of reactive inermediates.
By increasing the equilibrium constant for the reaction.
The rate law of a reaction is given below.From the given rate law, what will happen to the reaction time and reaction rate if the concentration of one of the reactants is doubled while keeping everything the same? why?Also, why the starch solution used as an indicator in an experiment turned blue at the end of the reaction?
Although CH4 reacts with Cl2 to form CH3Cl and HCl, the corresponding reaction of CH4 with I2 does not occur at an appreciable rate, even though the I–I bond is much weaker than the Cl–Cl bond. Explain why this is so.

- Some reactions proceed through a chain mechanism involving radicals, which are highly reactive species with one or more unpaired electrons. The radicals are produced in initiation steps, through either thermal or photodissociation. Reactions in which the radical centre is transferred are called propagation steps. The radicals are lost in termination steps. Consider the following chain mechanism:(1) AH → A + H·(2) A → B· + C(3) AH + B· → A + D(4) A + B· → P(a) Identify the initiation, propagation, and termination steps.(b) Use the steady-state approximation to deduce that the decompositionof AH is f irst-order in AH.arrow_forwardEldentify the following Organic reactions as substitution, eliminations, Or addition electron arrows the break form in each ceactors Circle and identify any intermediates of carbon.
