Answer:

The biggest risk with recharging alkaline batteries is leakage. As you probably know, alkaline batteries leak even under normal circumstances. Internal off gassing, made worse by heat, creates pressure that can breach battery seals. Therefore, the risk of leakage is an even bigger risk when recharging.

A solution of malonic acid, H2C3H2O4 , was standardized by titration with 0.1000 M NaOH solution. If 21.17 mL of the NaOH soluti

Answer: The molarity of the malonic acid solution is 0.08335 M

Explanation:

$H_2C_3H_2O_4 +2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2C_3H_2O_4+2H_2O$

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $H_2C_3H_2O_4$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

$n_1=2\\M_1=?\\V_1=12.70mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.1000M\\V_2=21.17mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$2\times M_1\times 12.70=1\times 0.1000\times 21.17\\\\M_1=0.08335M$

Thus the molarity of the malonic acid solution is 0.08335 M

1. In the first step of the mechanism for this process, a phenoxide anion is generated. This phenoxide anion goes on to act as a

Answer:

See the explanation

Explanation:

In this case, in order to get an elimination reaction we need to have a strong base. In this case, the base is the phenoxide ion produced the phenol (see figure 1).

Due to the resonance, we will have a more stable anion therefore we will have a less strong base because the negative charge is moving around the molecule (see figure 2).

Finally, the phenoxide will attack the primary carbon attached to the Cl. The C-Cl bond would be broken and the C-O would be produced at the same time to get a substitution (see figure 1).
