A voltaic cell has a zinc anode and a copper cathode. They are connected by a wire but no salt bridge. What can you predict will

happen? A. Without a salt bridge to slow it down the reaction will occur faster than normal. B. The electrons will flow to the zinc anode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction. C. None of these D. The electrons will flow to the copper cathode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction.

The prediction is that B. The electrons will flow to the zinc anode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction.

<h3>What is zinc?</h3>

This is known as a chemical element, of the periodic table, that is essential to life and is one of the most widely used metals. Zinc is of considerable commercial importance.

Without the salt bridge, positive and negative charges will build up around the electrodes causing the reaction to stop.

Hence, we know that the purpose of the salt bridge is to keep the solutions electrically neutral and allow the free flow of ions from one cell to another.

Be sure to answer all parts. part 1 out of 4 how many nucleophilic centers are present in methanol (ch3oh)?
leva [86]

Answer:

              One nucleophilic center

Explanation;

Nucleophile:

                    Nucleophile is a substance which is nucleus loving in nature (<em>Nucleo</em>; Nucleus , <em>phile</em>; Loving). It is known as a specie which donates a lone pair of electrons to electrophile (electron loving) in a chemical reaction.

                    Thus, Nucleophile is the region of higher electron density in a molecule and attacks on the lower electron density region of another molecule. Also, the nucleophile can also contain a negative charge.

Number of Nucleophilic centers in Methanol:

The chemical structure of Methanol is attached below and it can be observed that the oxygen atom is containing two lone pair of electrons. Hence, the oxygen atom can act as a nucleophilic center. Therefore, there is only one nucleophilic center in methanol.

                        H₃C-OH  +  H₃C-Br     →        H₃C-O-CH₃  +  HBr

In above reaction methanol is acting as a nucleophile and is attacking on electrophilic center (Carbon) of methyl bromide yielding dimethyl ether.

Predict the formula of the ionic compound that would result from combining the monatomic ions formed by each pair of elements. M
skad [1K]

Answer:

E - Be and O

A - Mg and N

E - Li and Br

F - Ba and Cl

B - Rb and O

Explanation:

Be and O

Be is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Be²⁺ and O is a nonmetal that gains 2 e⁻ to form O²⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form BeO (E-MX).

Mg and N

Mg is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Mg²⁺ and N is a nonmetal that gains 3 e⁻ to form O³⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form Mg₃N₂ (A-M₃X₂).

Li and Br

Li is a metal that loses 1 e⁻ to form Li⁺ and Br is a nonmetal that gains 1 e⁻ to form Br⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form LiBr (E-MX).

Ba and Cl

Ba is a metal that loses 2 e⁻ to form Ba²⁺ and Cl is a nonmetal that gains 1 e⁻ to form Cl⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form BaCl₂ (F-MX₂).

Rb and O

Rb is a metal that loses 1 e⁻ to form Rb⁺ and O is a nonmetal that gains 2 e⁻ to form O²⁻. For the ionic compound to be neutral, it must have the form Rb₂O (B-M₂X).
