Which of the following is the best description of a chemical reaction? a. when molecules of a substance move slowly enough, they link together to form a crystalline structure. b. when two molecules collide with enough force, old chemical bonds are broken and new bonds form, resulting in one or more new substances. c. when two molecules collide with enough force, they shatter into individual atoms. later, these atoms join up in new combinations to form new substances. d. when two atoms collide with enough force, their nuclei fuse together, forming new substances and releasing tremendous amounts of energy.

Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction in which two or more molecules collide together that results into breakage of old bonds and formation of new bonds due to which there occurs formation of new compounds.

For example,

Basically, a chemical reaction changes the identity of reactant species.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement when two molecules collide with enough force, old chemical bonds are broken and new bonds form, resulting in one or more new substances, is the best description of a chemical reaction.

here we have to get the change of moles on decrease the volume of the reaction in gas phase.

the   per the given options it will decrease by (d) 11-50%

we know, on decreasing the volume of the gas phase reaction the reaction moves to the product side.

the reaction:                     so₂cl₂ (g) = so₂ (g) + cl₂ (g)         total

the moles at equilibrium:   1 - α                 α               α           = 1+α

concentrations:                   1 - α               α               α           = 1 + α

(concentration = moles/volume, as volume is 1 l)

(where α is the degree of dissociation)

now the dissociation constant in terms of concentration is :

=  

or,

or,   = (at v = 1l)

the reaction:                     so₂cl₂ (g) = so₂ (g) + cl₂ (g)         total

the moles at equilibrium:   1 - α                 α               α           = 1+α

concentrations:               (1 - α)/0.5           α/0.5         α/0.5       = (1 + α)/0.5

thus, the dissociation constant in terms of concentration is :

or,  

=  

so, the change of 1 : 1/0.5

or, 1: 2

thus it will decrease by 50%.

or, as per the given options it will decrease by 11-50%

kuchisake

kuchisake-onna (口裂け女, "slit mouth woman ") is a malevolent figure appearing in japanese ghost stories, possibly dating back to the edo period. she takes the form of a masked woman who approaches people and asks them if they believe she is pretty.
