Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and Nucleic Acids.
Data Given:
Pressure = P = 0.5 atm
Volume = V = 2.0 L
Temperature = T = 50 °C + 273 = 323 K
Moles = n = ?
Solution:
Let suppose the gas is acting Ideally, Then According to Ideal Gas Equation.
P V = n R T
Solving for n,
n = P V / R T
Putting Values,
n = (0.5 atm × 2.0 L) ÷ (0.0821 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 323 K)
n = 0.0377 mol
The balanced reaction is
Ca + 2H2O → Ca(OH)2 + H2
Here this reaction can be compared with
A + BC ---> AB + C
So here one reactant (A) is accepting a group which is being given by another compound (BC) however the A is not giving any group / element or ion
So this single displacement
Similarly in the given reaction
the anion OH- is only being replaced
The element Ca accepts OH- and H2O loses the same group to form new element H2
So the correct answer is
Single replacement also known as single displacement
