Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Rate of diffusion is defined as the total movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration.
The interaction between medium and the material is responsible for the rate of diffusion of a material or substance.
A small concentration gradient means small difference in the number of molecules taking part in a reaction. So, when there no large difference between the concentration then there won't be much difference in the rate of diffusion of a material.
Whereas a higher concentration of molecules will lead to more number of collisions due to which frequency of molecules increases. Therefore, rate of diffusion will also increase.
Small molecule size will also lead to increases in rate of diffusion. This is because according to Graham's law rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to molar mass of an element. Hence, smaller size molecule will have smaller mass. As a result, rate of diffusion will be more.
High temperature means more kinetic energy of molecules due to which more number of collisions will be there. Hence, rate of diffusion will also increase.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options a small concentration gradient is least likely to increase the rate of diffusion.
Answer:
the solubility of CaCO3 is 0.015g/l 25 °C
is favored at equilibrium
Explanation:
The Ksp of calcium carbonate in water at 25 °C is 2.25 x 10-8. CaCO3(s) <----> Ca2+ (aq) + CO3 2- (aq) What is favored at equilibrium?
solubility is the property of a solute to dissolve in a solvent(liquid, gas ) to form a solution(soution can be saturated ,unsaturated, or supersaturated)
CaCO3(s) <----> Ca2+ (aq) + CO3 2- (aq)
in partial dissociation , we can say
2.25x 10^-8=
let Ca^2+=CO3^-2=S
2.25x10^-8=S*S
S^2=2.25x10^-8
S=0.00015mol/L
Converting that to g/l
the relative molecular mass of CaCO3=100g/mol
0.00015*100g/mol
0.015g/l
the solubility of CaCO3 is 0.015g/l @room temperature
is favored at equilibrium
Well, the cause of a volcanic eruption is when the lower crust melts. This leads to the formation of magma. The volcano is an opening through which the magma is discharged. The rock inside the earth melts. This magma is diffused upwards through the volcano. If magma reaches the top of the volcano, it behaviour depends on viscosity. So what happens before a volcanic eruption is that the lower crust melts, causing the formation of magma, which is released through the volcano. Hope i helped.
