The Number of moles required for MTBE is 2 as per molarity based chemistry theories.

  1. A flammable liquid with a distinct, unpleasant smell is called methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE).
  2. Since the 1980s, it has been added to unleaded gasoline as a fuel additive to promote more effective burning.
  3. It is created by mixing chemicals like isobutylene and methanol. Gallstones can be removed with MTBE as well.
  4. In this type of treatment, surgically inserted special tubes are used to deliver MTBE directly to the gall bladders of the patients.
  5. Methyl tert-butyl ether is a colorless liquid with a distinct anesthetic-like smell. Vapors are narcotic and heavier than air. 131 °F boiling point. 18 °F is the flash point.
  6. It is miscible in water and less dense than water. Boosts the octane of gasoline.
  7. Therefore it has 2 moles of oxygen.

Amoxicillin Suspension 125 mg/ 5 ml is 125 mg of Amoxicillin per 5 ml of suspension is an example of weight to ________.
kkurt [141]

Answer : Amoxicillin Suspension 125 mg/ 5 ml is 125 mg of Amoxicillin per 5 ml of suspension is an example of weight to volume.

Explanation :

Weight by volume (w/v) means that the mass of solute present in 100 mL volume of solution.

Weight by weight (w/w) means that the mass of solute present in 100 gram of solution.

Volume by volume (v/v) means that the volume of solute present in 100 mL volume of solution.

As per question, amoxicillin suspension is, 125 mg/ 5 ml that means 125 mg of Amoxicillin present in 5 mL of suspension. So, it is an example of weight to volume.

Hence, it is an example of weight to volume.

Think of a resource and predict What happens to the resource when competition for it increases
MatroZZZ [7]
Lets say foxes hunt rabbits. If their are too many foxes then they will compete for the rabbits. The rabbits get outnumbered by the amount of foxes so the foxes kill all the rabbits and the rabbits could eventually go extinct.

A student conducting the iodine clock experiment accidentally makes an s2o32- stock solution that is too concentrated. how will
cupoosta [38]
Adding (S2O3)2- would affect the reaction mechanism that involves this ion. From the reaction mechanism given above, the equilibrium of step 2 would be affected. Adding the stock solution of (S2O3)2- would shift the equilibrium to the right thus making more products of the said mechanism. Also, the reaction rate of this step would occur faster than the original rate. This is based on Le Chatelier's Prinicple which states that a corresponding change would happen to the equilibrium of a reaction when pressure, concentration of the substances or temperature is changed. So, that after the addition, a color change would appear immediately because I3- would be removed slowly from solution, and would therefore be able to react with starch.

Acetic acid, ethanol, acetaldehyde and ethane form a series of 2-carbon molecules which differ in their extent of oxidation. Con
yanalaym [24]
<h2>CH_3CH_2OH  →  CH_3CHO </h2>

Explanation:

Ethanol can be oxidized to ethanal or acetaldehyde which is further oxidized to acid that is acetic acid.

CH_3CH_2OH→  CH_3CHO [oxidation by loss of hydrogen]

  • An oxidizing agent potassium dichromate(VI) solution is used to remove the hydrogen from the ethanol.  
  • An oxidizing agent used along with dilute sulphuric acid for acidification.

Acetaldehyde can also be reduced back to ethanol again by adding hydrogen to it by using a reducing agent that is sodium tetrahydro borate, NaBH4.

  • The oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids can be done by the two-step process.  
  • In the first step, one molecule of water is added in the presence of a catalyst that is acidic.
  • There is a generation of a hydrate. (geminal 1,1-diol).

     CH_3CHO  →  CH_3CH_2COOH [reduction by the gain of electrons]

Here, the oxidizing agent used isCr_3O in the presence of acetone.
