Sodom chloride is an ionic compound.

<h3>What is sodium chloride?</h3>

Sodium chloride is a compound that is formed by the combination of sodium and chlorine atoms. The compound is ionic as the ions of the atoms combine. Sodium looses one electron that can now be gained by chlorine.

Since the compound is ionic, it has a high melting and boiling point. This implies that the compound could melt as high as 801 degrees centigrade. The boiling point of the compound is much higher.

We can represent the compound using the ball and stick or the space filling model. The ball and stick model of sodium chloride has been shown in the image attached to this answer.

Answer:

30.8 g of water are produced

Explanation:

First of all we need the equation for the production of water:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mol of oxygen in order to produce 2 moles of water.

As we assume, the oxygen in excess, we determine the moles of H₂.

1.03ₓ10²⁴ molecules . 1 mol/ 6.02ₓ10²³ molecules = 1.71 moles

Ratio is 2:2, so 1.71 moles will produce 1.71 moles of water

Let's convert the moles to mass: 1.71 mol . 18g / 1mol = 30.8 g of water are produced

Thermohaline circulation _______. a. supplies heat to polar regions b. causes salt lake formation c. causes oxbow lake formation

DerKrebs [107]

Thermohaline circulation that occur in the ocean part that flows across sea surface help to supply heat to polar regions.

<h3>What is Thermohaline circulation?</h3>

The thermohaline circulation refer to a section and region of the ocean circulation which is majorly driven by heat gradient and freshwater that flows across the sea surface and also from the mixture of heat and salt that occur at the inside part of the ocean.

Therefore, Thermohaline circulation help to supply heat to polar regions.

What is the conjugate acid of HCO3- ?OH-H2CO3CO32-H2OH3O+

adell [148]

<u>Answer:</u> The conjugate acid of $HCO_3^-$ is $H_2CO_3$

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory:

An acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base.
A base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

To form a conjugate acid of $HCO_3^-$ , this compound will accept one proton to form $H_2CO_3$

The chemical equation for the formation of conjugate acid follows:

$HCO_3^-+H^+\rightarrow H_2CO_3$

The conjugate acid formed is named as carbonic acid.

Hence, the conjugate acid of $HCO_3^-$ is $H_2CO_3$

6. The graph below shows the heating curve for ethanol (from –200C to 150C). Calculate the amount of heat (kJ) required for each

Kazeer [188]

This problem is providing the heating curve of ethanol showing relevant data such as the initial and final temperature, melting and boiling points, enthalpies of fusion and vaporization and specific heat of solid, liquid and gaseous ethanol, so that the overall heat is required and found to be 1.758 kJ according to:

<h3>Heating curves:</h3>

In chemistry, we widely use heating curves in order to figure out the required heat to take a substance from a temperature to another. This process may involve sensible heat and latent heat, when increasing or decreasing the temperature and changing the phase, respectively.

Thus, since ethanol starts off solid and end up being a vapor, we will find five types of heat, three of them related to the heating-up of ethanol, firstly solid, next liquid and then vapor, and the other two to its fusion and vaporization as shown below:

$Q_T=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3+Q_4+Q_5$

Hence, we begin by calculating each heat as follows, considering 1 g of ethanol is equivalent to 0.0217 mol:

$Q_1=0.0217mol*111.5\frac{J}{mol*\°C}[(-114.1\°C)-(-200\°C)] *\frac{1kJ}{1000J} =0.208kJ\\
\\
Q_2=0.0217mol*4.9\frac{kJ}{mol} =0.106kJ\\
\\
Q_3=0.0217mol*112.4\frac{J}{mol*\°C}[(78.4\°C)-(-114.1\°C)] *\frac{1kJ}{1000J} =0.470kJ\\
\\
Q_4=0.0217mol*38.6\frac{kJ}{mol} =0.838kJ\\
\\
Q_5=0.0217mol*87.5\frac{J}{mol*\°C}[(150\°C)-(78.4\°C)] *\frac{1kJ}{1000J} =0.136kJ$

Finally, we add them up to get the result:

$Q_T=0.208kJ+0.106kJ+0.470kJ+0.838kJ+0.136kJ\\
\\
Q_T=1.758kJ$
