Energy is transmitted to the surrounding in an exothermic reaction and this can be understood with the energy diagram of exothermic reaction attached with the answer.

<h3>What is an Exothermic Reaction ?</h3>

When a chemical reaction happens, energy is transferred to or from the surroundings.

When energy is transferred to the surroundings, this is called an exothermic reaction, and the temperature of the surroundings increases.

ΔH value negative –> energy released –> exothermic reaction

This happens because the reactants are at the higher energy state as compared to the products and therefore heat is liberated in the atmosphere to match the difference and therefore heat content in the surroundings increases.

The energy diagram for the exothermic reaction is attached with this answer.

You wish to construct a buffer of pH=7.0. Which of the following weak acids (w/ corresponding conjugate base) would you select?

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8

Explanation:

In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below

we Know that

pKa= -log(Ka)

therefore

A) pKa of HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)

=1.9208

B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644

C) pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45

D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)= 9.3979

If we consider the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution

The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.

So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.

Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.

Answer:

It has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.

Explanation:

The product formed as a result of the reaction of cyclohexene with H2 in presence of Pt (platinum) can be described as catalytic hydrogenation. Catalytic hydrogenation is defined as the process of hydrogen addition in the presence of a catalyst, which in this case is platinum.

Note that Cyclohexene (alkene) is a hydrocarbon molecule represented by the chemical formula, C6H10 .

It consists of a double bond. During the hydrogenation reaction, the alkene undergoes an addition reaction to give alkane which is a saturated hydrocarbon as the product.

The first step in order to derive the product is to draw the chemical structure of cyclohexene and identify the double bond present in it.

The final product can be derived by replacing the double bond with the single bond and satisfying all the valences of the carbon atom. The final product structure has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.

Ans:

The structure of the cyclohexane thus, formed has been shown as follows with all the hydrogen atoms:

Answer:

The coefficient of Ag is 2.

Explanation:

___Ag (s) + ___H₂S (g) ⇒ ___ Ag₂S (s) + ___ H₂(g)

The Law of Conservation of Matter is also called the law of conservation of mass or the Law of Lomonósov-Lavoisier. This law postulates that "the mass is not created or destroyed, only transformed." This means that the reagents interact with each other and form new products with physical and chemical properties different from those of the reagents because the atoms of the substances are ordered differently. But the amount of matter or mass before and after a transformation (chemical reaction) is always the same, that is, the quantities of the masses involved in a given reaction must be constant at all times, not changing in their proportions when the reaction ends.

In others words, the law of conservation of matter states that since no atom can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms that are present in the reagents has to be equal to the number of atoms present in the products.

Then, you must balance the chemical equation. For that, you must first look at the subscripts next to each atom to find the number of atoms in the equation. If the same atom appears in more than one molecule, you must add its amounts :

Left side: 1 Ag, 2 H and 1 S

Right side: 2 Ag, 2 H and 1 S

The coefficients located in front of each molecule indicate the amount of each molecule for the reaction. This coefficient can be modified to balance the equation, just as you should never alter the subscripts.

By multiplying the coefficient mentioned by the subscript, you get the amount of each element present in the reaction.

You can see that the elements H and S are balanced because we have the same quantity on both sides of the reaction. Then you must balance the Ag, so the reaction is:

2 Ag (s) + 1 H₂S (g) ⇒ 1 Ag₂S (s) + 1 H₂(g)

Now you have:

Left side: 2 Ag, 2 H and 1 S

Right side: 2 Ag, 2 H and 1 S

So, you have the same amount of each element to both of the reaction and this is balanced.

Then, <u><em>the coefficient of Ag is 2.</em></u>
