- . Consider the exothermic reaction CO(g)+2H2(g)CH3OH(l)Predict three changes that could be made to the system that would decrease the yield of product over that produced by a system in which no change was made.arrow_forward. Before two molecules can react, chemists envision that the molecules must first collide with one another. Is collision among molecules the only consideration for the molecules to react with one another?arrow_forwardSubstances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?arrow_forward
- use the kineticmolecular theory to explain why an increase in temperature increases reaction rate.arrow_forward. Hydrogen gas and chlorine gas in the presence of light react explosively to form hydrogen chloride H2(g)+Cl2(g)2HCl(g)The reaction is strongly exothermic. Would an increase in temperature for the system lend to favor or disfavor the production of hydrogen chloride?arrow_forwardComplete the table below for the reaction 3A(g)+B(g)2C(g)arrow_forward

If you wanted to use this reaction to produce methanol commercially, would high or low temperatures favor a maximum yield? Explain.arrow_forwarda What happens to a reaction rate as temperature drops? Give two explanations for the change. State which one is more important and explain why. b How does a catalyst affect reaction rates? c Compare reaction rates when a given reactant concentration is high with the rate when the concentration is low. Explain the difference.arrow_forward
- A reaction is started by mixing reactants. As time passes, the rate decreases. Explain this behavior that is characteristic of most reactions.arrow_forwardThe direct reaction of iron(III) oxide. Fe2O3, to give iron and oxygen gas is a nonspontaneous reaction; normally, iron combines with oxygen to give rust (the oxide). Yet we do change iron(III) oxide, as iron ore, into iron metal. How is this possible? Explain.arrow_forwardChemical reactions occur when reactants collide. What are two factors that may prevent a collision from producing a chemical reaction?arrow_forward
