Question: Q: What is the sequence of elementary steps that together comprise an entire chemical reaction called? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The overall balanced equation for a chemical reaction does not always tell us how a reaction actually proceeds. In many cases, the overall reaction takes place in a series of small steps. An elementary step (or elementary reaction) is one step in a series of simple reactions that show the progress of a reaction at the molecular level. In terms of collision theory, each elementary step corresponds to a single collision. A reaction mechanism is the sequence of elementary steps that together comprise an entire chemical reaction. As an analogy, consider the route that you might take while driving to the grocery store. That route may consist of several turns, similar to the elementary steps. The overall reaction specifies only the beginning point (your house) and the final destination (the store), with no information about the specifics in between. Choices: - reaction circle - mechanical mechanism - basic reaction - reaction mechanism A:
Answer: reaction mechanism

Question: Q: Hydrocarbons in which all carbons are connected by single bonds are called? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Hydrocarbons are molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms. Because each carbon atom can form covalent bonds with up to four other atoms, very large and complex molecules can be formed just from these two elements. Hydrocarbons in which all carbons are connected by single bonds are known as alkanes . If a C=C double bond is present, the compound is now an alkene . A triple bond between two carbons (CC) makes the compound an alkyne . Hydrocarbons can also be broadly classified as either saturated , which means they contain no multiple bonds, or unsaturated , which means they contain at least one double or triple bond. Choices: - acids - enzymes - lipids - alkanes A:
Answer: alkanes

Question: Q: The force of attraction or repulsion between charged particles is called what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: When it comes to electric charges, opposites attract. In other words, positive and negative particles are attracted to each other. Like charges, on the other hand, repel each other, so two positive or two negative charges push apart from each other. The force of attraction or repulsion between charged particles is called electric force . It is illustrated in Figure below . The strength of electric force depends on the amount of electric charge and the distance between the charged particles. The larger the charge or the closer together the charges are, the greater is the electric force. Choices: - magnetic force - cooling force - power force - electric force A:
Answer:
electric force
