At its discovery, benzene was recognized to be a unique unsaturated hydrocarbon because it either failed to react, by substitution with common reagents or reacted by addition that led to reactions with alkenes.

<h3>What are unsaturated hydrocarbons?</h3>

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are the hydrocarbons which have at least on double or triple carbon to carbon bond in its molecules.

All other hydrocarbons are unsaturated except for the alkanes and the cyclic alkanes.

Benzene is an aromatic compound which has a special six-carbon ring with are resonance structure reflecting the presence of three carbon-carbon bonds in its molecules.

The common reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons are substitution and addition reactions.

However, benzene on its discovery did not undergo any of these reactions.

In conclusion, benzene showed a difference when compared with the common unsaturated hydrocarbons as it did not undergo either substitution or addition reactions.

Saponification is a chemical reaction _____. A. due to the presence of a strong organic acid. B. that results in an alcohol and
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

that results in an alcohol and a carboxylic acid.

Explanation:

Saponification is a chemical reaction process of alkaline hydrolysis of esters(R'COOR group) by which soap is obtained.

For Example, when a base such as sodium hydroxide [NaOH]  is used to hydrolyze an ester, the products are a carboxylate salt and an alcohol. Because soaps are prepared by the alkaline hydrolysis of fats and oils.

In a saponification reaction, alkaline hydrolysis of fats and oils with sodium hydroxide  yields propane-1,2,3-triol and the corresponding sodium salts of the component fatty acids.

i.e  Fat or oil + caustic alkali ⇒ Soap + propane-1,2,3-triol

As a specific example, ethyl acetate and NaOH react to form sodium acetate and ethanol:

The reaction goes to completion in the image below:

At 2000°C, the equilibrium constant for the reaction below is Kc = 4.10 ´ 10–4 . If 0.600 moles of NO is placed in a 1.0-L react
erastova [34]

Answer:

At equilibrium, the concentration of N_{2 (g)} is going to be 0.30M

Explanation:

We first need the reaction.

With the information given we can assume that is:

N_{2 (g)} + O_{2 (g)} ⇄ 2NO_{(g)}

If there is placed 0.600 moles of NO in a 1.0-L vessel, we have a initial concentration of 0.60 M NO; and no N_{2 (g)} nor  O_{2 (g)} present. Immediately, N_{2 (g)} andO_{2 (g)} are going to be produced until equilibrium is reached.

By the ICE (initial, change, equilibrium) analysis:

I: [N_{2 (g)}]=0   ;     [O_{2 (g)} ]= 0    ; [NO_{(g)}]=0.60M

C: [N_{2 (g)}]=+x   ;     [O_{2 (g)} ]= +x    ; [NO_{(g)}]=-2x

E: [N_{2 (g)}]=0+x   ;     [O_{2 (g)} ]= 0+x   ; [NO_{(g)}]=0.60-2x

Now we can use the constant information:

K_{c}=\frac{[products]^{stoichiometric coefficient} }{[reactants]^{stoichiometric coefficient} }

4.10* 10^{-4} =\frac{(0.60-2x)^{2}}{(x)*(x)}

4.10* 10^{-4}= \frac{(0.60-2x)^{2}}{x^{2} }

4.10* 10^{-4} * x^{2}= (0.60-2x)^{2}}

\sqrt{4.10* 10^{-4} * x^{2}}= \sqrt{(0.60-2x)^{2}}}

0.0202 x =0.60 - 2x

2x+0.0202x=0.60

x=\frac{0.60}{2.0202}= 0.30

At equilibrium, the concentration of N_{2 (g)} is going to be 0.30M

The volume of a gas is ______. equal to the volume of its container not related to the volume of its container dependent on the
ICE Princess25 [194]
The answer would be: <span>dependent on the number of particles 

If you see the ideal gas formula you know that volume is directly related to the number of particles.
Closed container volume could influence the pressure that will change the volume but the question seems to talk about open container. If the container is not closed, then the volume of container won't have any effect.
Mass is related to the number of particles, but not directly related to volume so this option is a bit ambiguous.</span>
