The speed of a chemical reaction O a. is independent of the amount of contact surface of a solid involved. O b. between ions in aqueous solution is extremely rapid because there are no bonds that need to be broken. O c. varies inversely with the absolute temperature d. between gases should in all cases be extremely rapid because the average kinetic energy of the molecules is great.

hello, i sent this question before but the answer you rpovided for both wasnt right and i couldnt undertstand how you got the answer. can you please show me a handwritten solution for better understanding. 1a) The decomposition of ethanol at some constant temperature (above 500°C), over a copper surface, C2H5OH(g) CH3CHO(g) + H2(g) was studied by monitoring the total pressure with time.The following data were obtained: t (s) Ptotal (torr) 0 120 45 131 139 154 233 177 376 212 380 213 What will be the total pressure at t = 462 s? 1b) What is the rate constant (k)?(Include appropriate units.)
The interhalogen ClF₃ is prepared in a two-step fluorinationof chlorine gas:Cl₂(g)+F₂(g)⇌ ClF(g) ClF(g)+F₂(g)⇌ ClF₃(g) (a) Balance each step and write the overall equation.(b) Show that the overall Qcequals the product of the Qc’s for theindividual steps.
Collision theory depends on knowing the fraction of molecular collisions having at least the kinetic energy Ea along the line of flight. What is this fraction when (i) Ea = 20 kJ mol−1, (ii) Ea = 100 kJ mol−1 at (1) 350 K and (2) 900 K?
d.The simplifying assumption that the change in concentration of the reactants is SMALL (and therefore negligible to the calculation) compared to the initial concentration of the reactants. Is this assumption justified in this reaction and these conditions? Do a little math to prove your point.
Are the following processes examples of homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis? a Hydrolysis of immiscible ethyl acetate (l) in an aqueous basic solution. b Conversion of NOX gases to N2 and O2 by platinum metal. c Decomposition of atmospheric ozone by NO gas. d Oxidation of ethyl alcohol, C2H5OH, by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase, ADH, to acetaldehyde in the body. e Solid-state conversion of C graphite to C diamond by transition metal additives at high pressure.
The first step in the heterogeneoushydrogenation of ethylene is adsorption of theethylene molecule on a metal surface. One proposed explanation for the “sticking” of ethylene to a metalsurface is the interaction of the electrons in the C—C π bond with vacant orbitals on the metal surface. (a) If thisnotion is correct, would ethane be expected to adsorb to a metal surface, and, if so, how strongly would ethane bindcompared to ethylene? (b) Based on its Lewis structure,would you expect ammonia to adsorb to a metal surfaceusing a similar explanation as for ethylene?
