Consider the following reaction in the forward direction. Identify the base:

Chemistry

Advocard [28]1 year ago

If we consider the reaction CH₃O⁻ + H₂O ⇌ CH₃OH + OH⁻ in the forward direction, the base in the reaction is CH₃O⁻

A compound can be acidic, basic or neutral in nature. Basicity of the compound is determined when it either releases hydroxide ions, donates electrons or else accepts the protons from a compound.

In the reaction CH₃O⁻ + H₂O ⇌ CH₃OH + OH⁻:

CH₃O⁻ accepts proton or [H+] ion to become CH₃OH. Thus, CH₃O⁻ is the base in the reaction

H₂O donate [H+] ion or proton, therefore H2O change into OH-. Thus, H₂O is an acid in the reaction.

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO (g) is Keq = 4.20 ⋅ 10-31 at 30 °C. At equilibrium, __
pychu [463]

Answer:

At equilibrium, reactants predominate.

Explanation:

For every reaction, the equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants. Thus, for the reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO the expression of its equilibrium constant is:

Keq = \frac{[NO]^{2}}{[O_{2} ][N_{2}]}

Since the equilibrium constant is Keq = 4.20x10-31 the concentration of reactants O2 and N2 must be much higher than products to obtain such a small number as  4.20x10-31 at the equilibrium. Hence, at equilibrium reactants predominate.

How much would the temperature of 275 g of water increase if 36.5 kj of heat were added?
Andrew [12]

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature increase will be 31.70°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the increase in the temperature of the system, we use the equation:

q=mc\Delta T

where,

q = Heat absorbed = 36.5 kJ = 36500J

m = Mass of water = 275 g

c = Specific heat capacity of water = 4.186J/g^oC

\Delta T = change in temperature = ? °C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

36500J=275\times 4.186J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=31.70^oC

Hence, the temperature increase will be 31.70°C.

How long is a red blood cell
Lera25 [3.4K]
I suspect this question should read "How long does a red blood cell live." A red blood cell lives for between 100 and 120 days. It takes 7 days for a new red blood cell to develop from stem cells. Stem cells are similar to base cells. They can also be seen as a general template from which specialized cells are made. Stem cells can be taken from a newborn baby's umbilical chord or extracted from an adult blood donor's blood.This

Our recorded observations are called.
trapecia [35]

Answer:  Raw data, perhaps.

Explanation:  I'm not certain what the question is seeking for an answer, but I would suggest "raw data" would be a reasonable choice.  It reflects the data was recorded, but not yet processed to provide a conclusion or observation.

If one were a bit snarky, other possiblities include

  • a pile of dung
  • my labmate's scrawls, or
  • the best web results I could find
