Which of the following experimental methods cannot be used to measure the rate of a reaction? Group of answer choices measurement of the absorbance of a colored reactant with time measurement of the change in the partial pressure of a gas-phase product over time measurement of the equilibrium concentration of an acidic product via titration with a strong base measurement of the absorbance of a colored product with time measurement of the change in the partial pressure of a gas-phase reactant over time

measurement of the equilibrium concentration of an acidic product via titration with a strong base

Explanation:

The rate at which a reaction proceeds refers to how quickly the reaction is occuring. In other words, it is how quickly the reactants are changing to the products. According to the question, the rate of a reaction can be measured experimentally using the reactants' or products' properties e.g volume, pressure etc.

Since reactions must involve reactants and products, the manner in which either the reactants or products changes over time can be measured. For example; measurement of the absorbance of a colored reactant or product with time, measurement of the change in the partial pressure of a gas-phase reactant or product over time can be used.

However, a measurement of the equilibrium concentration of an acidic product via titration with a strong base will not tell us how fast the reaction is going because it is in an EQUILIBRIUM state i.e. reaction is occuring at an equal rate

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
