When formic acid is treated with potassium hydroxide (KOH), an acid-base reaction occurs, forming a carboxylate ion. For the mechanism, draw the curved arrows as needed. Include lone pairs and charges in your answer. Do not draw out any hydrogen explicitly in your products.

How does a catalyst increase the speed of a reaction? a. the catalyst eliminates the activated complex stage, allowing products to form immediately. b. the catalyst lowers the energy level of the reactants, making it easier for them to react. c. the catalyst makes it easier for the activated complex to form, lowering the activation energy. d. the catalyst raises the energy level of the products, making the reaction finish sooner. reset next

Listenbase your answer to the question on the information below. nuclear radiation is harmful to living cells, particularly to fast-growing cells, such as cancer cells and blood cells. an external beam of the radiation emitted from a radioisotope can be directed on a small area of a person to destroy cancer cells within the body. cobalt-60 is an artificially produced radioisotope that emits gamma rays and beta particles. one hospital keeps a 100.0-gram sample of cobalt-60 in an appropriate, secure storage container for future cancer treatment. which choice represents the correct product for the beta decay of the co-60? fe-60ni-60fe-61ni-61
