In which of the following reactions would you expect the orientation factor to be least important in leading to reaction is it H plus Cl yields HCl or NO plus O yields NO2?
Aamaster89
H + Cl ----> HCl
This is because H and Cl are both two molecules alone. It doesn't matter which way they collide because they have to collide with each other.
In NO + O ----> NO2, you can collide with either the NO or the O side of the compound molecule.

What can an exothermic reaction do?
Exergonic reactions are chemical reactions in which energy is released as heat.
Why is light an important factor in all chemical reactions?
Light usually provides enough energy for exchange of electrons and carry out the chemical reaction.
What is the difference between a reversible reaction and a reaction that goes to completion?
The reactions in which the products can recombine to form reactants are called reversible reactions. These reactions never go to completion. They are represented by a double arrow between reactants and products.
When an acid and an alkali react it is called combustion?
No. Acid + alkali reactions are neutralisation reactions. Combustion is a reaction with oxygen.
Why concept of limiting reactant is not applied to reversible reaction?
Concept of limiting reactant is not applicable to the reversible reactions because in these reactions all the reactants are converted into products and no reactants remain at the end of the reaction.
What is a following characterizes a reaction at equilibrium?
The forward and backward reactions are equal.
What is the most important characteristic of a nuclear reaction?
Nuclear reactions involve the reaction of nuclei and does not involve transfer of electron as in regular chemical reactions.
Identify the single replacement reaction(s) among the following reactions.?

What is a catalyst and why is it important in certain reactions?
a catalyst speeds up the rate of reaction
Why are enzymes important in chemical reaction?
Enzymes act as catalysts in biochemical reactions.
Best explains how enzymes speed up chemical reactions?
Enzymes speed up the chemical reactions by forcing the reactant molecules into their correct orientation. The enzymes also lower the required energy for collision to produce a reaction.
How do enzymes help accelerate reactions?
Chemical reactions involve collisions between molecules. most collisions don't have either the right orientation or enough energy for the reaction to proceed. the molecules just bounce off each other, unchanged. incidentally that is why reactions proceed faster as the temperature increases - high temperature means molecules are moving faster and are more likely to have the required energy to react.Enzymes are protein catalysts that force reactant molecules into the correct orientation and lower the required energy for a collision to produce a reaction.
What type of reactions is an acid-base reactions?
Neutralization
Why is ATP important in ligation reactions?
ATP provides energy for the condensation reaction joining adjacent nucleotides.
Why do chemists need to know the factors that affect reaction rates?
It is important to control chemical reactions in industry.
Why is combustion reactions an oxidation reactions in small amount?
Combustion is an oxidation reaction - a reaction with oxygen.
What name is given to reaction which give out heat?
Such reactions are called Exothermic reactions.
