can i please have help

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

What is the expected outcome of adding a catalyst to a chemical reaction? A. The reaction will speed up. B. Chemical equilibrium will not be reached. C. The reaction will slow down. D. No change will occur.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

i think it's B

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

can you please help me

OpenStudy (welshfella):

look at your last post aand see what I said about a catalyst

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

you said a catalyst promotes a reaction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is not B, because equilibrium can still be reached. The right answer is actually A. The reaction will speed up.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

thank you i have a few more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yeah, exactly. The catalyst will promote the reaction (speed it up).

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

Which statement describes chemical reactions that take place at different rates? A. One reaction produces more products than the other. B. One reaction begins with more reactants than the other. C. One reaction takes place in less time than the other. D. One reaction involves a color change and the other does not.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

it's not D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The correct answer is C. If two reactions have different rates, one must be faster than the other.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

unless they are very different reactions, but that is not specified in the question.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

i have one more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

What action will slow down the rate of a reaction? A. Raising the temperature of the reactants B. Decreasing surface area of a solid reactant C. Increasing the concentration of the reactants D. Adding a catalyst to the reaction

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

it's not a

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

thank you for helping me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since a catalyst speed up a reaction by reacting with the molecules, decreasing the surface area will limit the interaction with the molecules. Therefore the answer is B.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

i got 80%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ashworth?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tell me what you got wrong. Ill help.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

i can't go back and see what i got wrong

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

do you want to do 5 more or no

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

Which statement is a correct expression of the Law of Conservation of Mass? A. The total mass is unpredictable in a chemical reaction. B. The total mass remains the same during a chemical reaction. C. The total mass decreases during a chemical reaction. D. The total mass increases in a chemical reaction.

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

it's not C

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

or a

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

you still there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im back

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its B

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Mas is conserved - that means it stays the same.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (welshfella):

B is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So next question??

OpenStudy (cmtboy2):

Which element(s) are not balanced in this equation? Fe2O3 + 3 CO → Fe + 3 CO2 A. Only the Fe is unbalanced. B. Only the O is unbalanced C. Fe and O are both unbalanced. D. C and O are both unbalanced

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Fe is not balanced because the reactant has Fe2 and the product has only one Fe.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So im pretty sure its D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u still on?
