The proton transfer reaction between Cyanide and water can be written as; X^- + H2O -----> HX + OH^-

<h3>What is a proton transfer reaction?</h3>

A proton transfer reaction is one in which a proton is moved from one chemical specie to another.It is in fact and acid - base reaction in the Brownstead - Lowry sense.

The proton transfer reaction between Cyanide and water can be written as(Let the cyanide ion be shown as X);

X^- + H2O -----> HX + OH^-

The proton transfer reaction to form hydrogen cyanide and hydroxide is

X⁻ + H₂O → HX + OH⁻

<h3>What is a proton transfer reaction?</h3>

A reaction in which a proton H⁻ is removed from one species and accepted by another species.

An example of a proton transfer is Brønsted acid reacting with a Brønsted base.

Thus, the proton transfer reaction to form hydrogen cyanide and hydroxide is X⁻ + H₂O → HX + OH⁻

What would happen to the water’s boiling point if MgSO4 is added to it?
kirill [66]

Answer:

When Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) dissolves, it separates into its ions: a magnesium ion (Mg2+) and a sulfate ion (SO4 2-), which results in hard water. When hard water and soap are mixed, the magnesium ion reacts with soap molecules and forms a solid material called a precipitate, which does not dissolve.

1. Meteorologist predict the weather by using tools. They use these tools to measure atmospheric conditions that occurred in the past and present, and they apply this information to create educated guesses about the future weather. The best we can do is observe past and present atmospheric patterns and data, and apply this information to what we think will happen in the future. Meteorologists use the scientific method on a daily – and even hourly – basis!

2. They use thermometers, barometers, sling psychrometers and rain gauges. They also use anemometers, hygrometers, weather maps, weather balloons and weather satellites.

What mass of sodium chloride (NaCl) forms when 7.5 g of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) reacts with a dilute solution of hydrochloric
Gre4nikov [31]

 The mass of NaCl  formed  is 8.307  grams


<u><em> calculation</em></u>

step 1: write the equation  for reaction

Na₂CO₃  + 2HCl → 2 NaCl  +CO₂ +H₂O

Step 2: find the  moles of Na₂CO₃

moles = mass/molar mass

 The  molar mass of Na₂CO₃  is = (23 x2) + 12 + ( 16 x3) = 106 g/mol

moles  = 7.5 g/106 g/mol =0.071 moles

Step 3: use the  mole ratio to determine the  mole of NaCl

Na₂CO₃:NaCl  is  1:2  therefore the moles of NaCl =0.07  x2 =0.142 moles


Step 4:  calculate mass  of NaCl

mass= moles x molar mass

the molar  mass of NaCl= 23 +35.5 =58.5 g/mol

mass  = 0.142  moles x 58.5 g/mol =8.307  grams

Which of the following best explains why you sanded the copper wire before burning it? to create less friction between the coppe
artcher [175]

The copper wire was sanded before burning in order to make sure that copper metal was exposed on the surface of the wire.

Answer: B

Explanation

The copper wire when placed in atmosphere without coating leads to oxidation of copper metal with respect to the impurities present in the atmosphere.

As copper is electropositive in nature, so electronegative ions present in the universe will try to react with copper and the copper will react easily with other elements.

So generally copper wire is coated with color or polymer coating.

In this case, the copper wire without any coating is sanded, so that the eddy sheets or polishing materials on friction with copper wire will remove the impurities by the electrostatic law of conservation of charges and charge transfer.

As the impurities are removed when copper wire is sanded, the copper atoms will be exposed on the surface of the wire leading to burning of copper in the copper wire.
