According to the electron-cloud model of the atom, an orbital is a
(1) circular path traveled by an electron around the nucleus
(2) spiral path traveled by an electron toward the nucleus
(3) region of the most probable proton location
(4) region of the most probable electron location

Butadiene undergoes a reaction at a certain temperature in the gas phase as follows: 2c4h6(g) --> c8h12(g) the following data were collected for this reaction: time (min) [c4h6] (m) 0 0.36 15 0.30 30 0.25 48 0.19 75 0. determine the order of the reaction and the rate constant. 1st order and k = 4.3x10 -4 s-1 1st order and k = 2.3x10-4 s-1 2nd order and k = 4.3x10-4 s-1 2nd order and k = 2.3x10-4 s-1 zero and k = 4.3x10-4 s-1

Describe what happens to the molecules as water goes from ice to liquid to vapor. be sure to explain what happens to the temperature during the phase changes.

How does a large body of water, such as the ocean, influence climate?
