Which does not apply to dihydroxyacetone?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: C. Chiral

Explanation: In chemistry, a molecule or ion is called chiral if it cannot be superposed on its mirror image by any combination of rotations, translations, and some conformational changes. This geometric property is called chirality.

Why don't siblings look exactly alike

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Your genes play a big role in making you who you are. ... But brothers and sisters don't look exactly alike because everyone (including parents) actually has two copies of most of their genes. And these copies can be different. Parents pass one of their two copies of each of their genes to their kids.

Which of the following series of isoelectronic ions (Mg²⁺, N³⁻, F⁻, Si⁴⁺) has the ionic radii in order of largest to smallest? A

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct

N³⁻ > F⁻ > Mg²⁺ > Si⁴⁺

Explanation:

Total electrons for all the species = 10

So these are <u>iso electronic</u> with each other.

We know

Ionic radii ∝ $\frac{Magnitude of Negative Charge}{Magnitude of Positive Charge}$

Si⁴⁺ has 14 protons and 10 electrons
Mg²⁺ has 12 protons and 10 electrons
N³⁻ has 7 protons and 10 electrons
F⁻ has 9 protons and 10 electrons

Iso electronic species with greatest number of protons have small size and vice versa.
So Si⁺⁴ have smallest size and N³⁻ have largest in size

aseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 5.5 g of methane is

maksim [4K]

Answer:

There is 9.6 grams of CO2 produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of methane = 5.50 grams

Molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 13.9 grams

Molar mass of oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The reaction

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Step 3: Calculate number of moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles methane = 5.50 grams / 16.04 g/mol

Moles methane = 0.343 moles

Moles oxygen = 13.9 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 0.434 moles

For 1 mol CH4 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol CO2 and 2 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely react (0.434 moles).

There will react 0.434/2 = 0.217 moles CH4

There will remain 0.343-0.217 = 0.126 moles CH4

There will be produced 0.434 moles of H2O and

0.434/2 =0.217 moles of CO2

Step 4: Calculate mass of products

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass CO2 = 0.217 moles ¨44.01 g/mol

Mass CO2 = 9.6 grams

Mass H2O = 0.434 moles * 18.02

Mass H2O = 7.8 grams

Elden [556K]

Answer:

When copper(II) chloride and sodium carbonate solutions are combined, solid copper(II) carbonate precipitates, leaving a solution of sodium chloride. Write the conventional equation, total ionic equation, and net ionic equation for this reaction.

Explanation:

The word equation for the reaction is:

Copper (II) chloride(aq) + sodium carbonate (aq) ->sodium chloride (aq) + copper carbonate(s)

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

$CuCl_2(aq)+Na_2CO_3(aq)->2NaCl(aq)+CuCO_3(s)$

The complete ionic equation is:

$Cu^2+(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2Na^+(aq)+CO_3^2^-(aq)->2Cl^-(aq)+2Na^+(aq)+CuCO_3(s)\\$

The net ionic equation is obtained from the complete ionic equation after removing the spectator ions:

$Cu^2^+(aq)+CO_3^2^-(aq)->CuCO_3(s)$
