Explain why organic reactions occur at a slower rate than inorganic reactions. what do chemists use to speed these reactions up? why doesn't this change the products of the reaction?

The organic particles are molecules. Because of strong covalent bonding in the molecule, organic compounds do not react quickly. Reactions with organic compounds are generally slower than inorganic reactions due to this fact.

Increasing temperature speeds up a reaction because of there being more collisions and those collisions have higher energy. Also the high concentration of the chemicals, particle size and there being a suitable catalyst present. ( Though this process is harmful should it be used in modifying results in food grains and meats.)

Answer from: Quest

answer: - 3.) the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

solution: - as per the rules, oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2. the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a molecule or compound is zero.

also, the oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

in no, the oxidation number of o is -2 so the oxidation number of n is +2 so that the sum is zero.

similarly, the oxidation number of c in co is +2 and o is -2.

on product side the oxidation number of n is 0 as it is in the elemental form( $n_2$ ) .

oxidation number of c in carbon dioxide is +4 as there are two oxygen in it and we know that each oxygen is -2.

so, oxidation number of n is changing from +2 to 0 and the oxidation number of c is changing from +2 to +4.

since nitrogen is reduced and hence no is acting as an oxidizing agent. carbon is oxidized and so co is acting as a reducing agent.

so, the right choice is number 3.)the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

Answer from: Quest

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –

6.022

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.

Under what conditions will a gas be most likely to exhibit the ideal gas properties predicted by the ideal gas law? 1)high pressures and high temperature, because particles are forced closer together with higher kinetic energy, so intermolecular forces of attraction are weaker 2)high pressure and low temperature, because particles are forced closer together and moving slower, so the volume of the particles is less significant 3) low pressure and high temperature, because particles are spread farther apart and moving faster, so the intermolecular forces of attraction are weaker 4)low pressure and low temperature, because particles are spread farther apart with lower kinetic energy, so the volume of the particles is less significant
