Reference no: EM13238602

A 1-cm2 piece of zinc metal placed in 6 M HCI at room temperature will completely react and disappear in 3.5 minutes. A similar piece of zinc placed in 6 M HCI that has been chilled to 4 deg C takes 65 minutes to react. Explain in terms of molecular collision

a) at room temperature more of the collisions have sufficient energy to produce a reaction

b) the piece of zinc needs to be bigger at 4 deg c.

c) the HCI is less concentrated at 4 deg C.

d) zinc is solid at 4 deg C

e) HCI is a solid at 4 deg C
