Explanation

The unit of a rate constant is derived from the rate law equation, which relates the rate of a reaction to the concentrations of the reactants raised to their respective orders. 

Explanation

Activation energy represents the energy barrier that reactants must overcome to transition into products, and it's the minimum amount of energy required for this to happen. 

Explanation

Reduction:

• Gain electrons
• Oxidation state lowers
• Always paired with oxidation (redox)
• Oxidizing agent gets reduced

Additional information 

Oxidation is the chemical process of:

• Losing electrons
• Oxidation state increases
• Always paired with reduction (together form redox)
• Reducing agent gets oxidized (it gives up the electrons)

Explanation

Oxidation is a chemical process where an atom, molecule, or ion loses electrons, increasing in its oxidation state. 

Explanation

The Arrhenius equation relates the rate constant (k), activation energy (Ea), and absolute temperature (T).

The equation is written as k = A * e^(-Ea/RT), where A is the frequency factor and R is the ideal gas constant

Explanation

An oxidizing agent accepts electrons. 

In a redox reaction, an oxidizing agent "oxidizes" another substance by causing it to lose electrons,

Meaning the oxidizing agent itself gains electrons. 

Explanation

Electrolysis works by passing an electric current through a molten or aqueous ionic compound, causing it to break down into its constituent elements. 

Explanation

The general formula for alkynes is:  

CₙH₂ₙ₋₂  

(Where n = number of carbon atoms)

Explanation

 The functional group present in aldehydes is the aldehyde group, which is represented as -CHO.

This group consists of a carbonyl group (C=O) where the carbon atom is bonded to at least one hydrogen atom. 

Explanation

The functional group -COOH is the carboxyl group, which is a characteristic functional group of carboxylic acids.

Carboxylic acids are a class of organic compounds that contain this group, examples include:

• Formic acid (HCOOH)
• Acetic acid (CH3COOH)
• Citric acid (C6H8O7)
