antoniya [11.8K]

The replacing of sodium hydroxide with potassium hydroxide (KOH) to the reaction will least affect the organic product that forms.

 

Potassium hydroxide is an inorganic compound with the formula KOH, and is commonly called caustic potash. Along with sodium hydroxide, this colorless solid is a prototypical strong base.

If a beaker of water and a beaker of acetic acid are at the same elevated temperature, which will cool more quickly to room temp
4vir4ik [10]
The beaker of acetic acid will cool more quickly.

The specific heat capacity of acetic acid is about half that of water.
Thus, it takes twice as much heat gain (or loss) in acetic acid to cause a given change in temperature.
If everything else is constant and heat is being lost at the same rate, the temperature of the acetic acid should drop twice as fast as that of water.

Is it possible to transfer heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer is: B.) Yes, if work is done, this transfer process can take place.

For example,  air conditioner involves a cyclic process that transfers heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir, but with use of electricity.

Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.

The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.

If 287 mL of a 1.6 M glucose solution is diluted to 412 mL , what is the molarity of the diluted solution
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1.11 M

Explanation:

Data

volume 1 = 287 ml

concentration 1 = 1.6 M

volume 2= 412 ml

concentration 2 = ?

Formula

               Volume 1 x concentration 1 = Volume 2 x concentration 2

Solve for concentration 2

          concentration 2 = (volume 1 x concentration 1) / volume 2

Substitution

          concentration 2 = (287 x 1.6) / 412

Simplification

          concentration 2 = 459.2 / 412

Result

           concentration 2 = 1.11 M
