Question

Which term best describes the role of hydrogen gas in the formation of a water molecule?
catalyst
inhibitor
product
reactant

Answer 1

@Somy

Answer 2

its a reactant isnt it?

Answer 3

if u say so)

Answer 4

smh am i right tho
because the hydrogen is reacting to the water

Answer 5

reacting to water???

Answer 6

then it must be product

Answer 7

@mathwizkevin18 Can you set up an equation to where you think Hydrogen is a reactant? then set one up with H as a product? Then we can fix it up from there.

Answer 8

oooh so its inhibitor

Answer 9

No. Please set up the equations.

Answer 10

idk the equuation

Answer 11

so its catalyst

Answer 12

No, slow down.

Answer 13

cause i already said all the other options

Answer 14

No one is going to hand out the answer unless you do a little bit of work. It's to help you understand it.

Answer 15

I want you to tell me what a catalyst is.

Answer 16

and then tell me what an inhibitor is.

Answer 17

idk the video didnt expalin it

Answer 18

girl help

Answer 19

im about to cut someone

Answer 20

I won't help unless you put in some effort. Now. I'm going to tell you what all these terms mean, then I want you to come to a final consensus.

Answer 21

ok gurl

Answer 22

A catalyst is a compound that is added to a reaction that speeds the reaction up by lowering the activation energy for the transitional state.

Answer 23

An inhibitor is the complete opposite of a catalyst; it slows the reaction down.

Answer 24

A product is what is produced in the equation and is on the right side of the equation.

Answer 25

catalyst

Answer 26

because it is added to the reactant

Answer 27

you can't make water without hydrogen gas. it's not a catalyst

Answer 28

Sorry, openstudy completely crashed on me. As I was saying.

Answer 29

A reactant is what is used in the reaction and is on the left side of the equation.

Answer 30

The equation for the formation of water is
