What is the purpose of a catalyst in the production of hydrogen?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:To speed up the rate of hydrogen production

Explanation:

In the preparation of Hydrogen from the action of dilute acid on zinc metal, few drops of Copper(II)tetraoxosulphate(VI) solution is added to speed up the rate of production.

The hydrogen produced is shown in the equation below

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) --> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Thus, Copper(II)tetraoxosulphate(VI) solution, a catalyst is used to speed up hydrogen production.

Under what conditions does the "NET FORCE" acting an object equal the sum of the individual forces?Net Force- Acting on an Object
Is my definition right?

Answers

Answer : When the forces are acting in the same direction of movement of the object it can be said as sum of the two individual forces will be equal to the "NET FORCE" .

Example : If two forces (2 kids pushing in the same direction to move the object big box) act on an object(big box) in the same direction, then the net force is equal to the sum of the two forces.

The net force on an object is equal to the sum of the individual forces
when the individual forces all act in the same direction.

We don't know your definition, so we can't tell whether it's right.
