since esters are cleaved on hydrolysis, the molecular weight of the acid derived from an ester is always lower than the molecule

s weight of the ester. however, esters are equally liquids while carboxylic acids are usually solids. suggest reasons for this observation and explain.

Esters  contains  a  double  bond  between  carbon  atom  and  oxygen  atom  while  carboxylic  acid  lack  double  bond  between  carbon  and oxygen atom.The  lack  of  double  bond in  carboxylic  acid  make  the  force  of  interaction between  carbon  and  oxygen  strong  and  particles  become tightly  packed  which  make  carboxylic  acid  solid.  The  presence  of  double  bond  in  esters make  the  force  of  interaction  weak  thus  they  are  liquid.

Describe the role of the ocean in the water cycle?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Don't get me wrong the seas are, by distant, the biggest store of water on soil, over 96% of all of Earth's water exists within the seas. Not as it were do the seas give dissipated water to the water cycle, they moreover permit water to move all around the globe as sea streams. I mean, that's all i know man, give me a break.

A small amount wet of hydrogen gas can be prepared by the reaction of zinc with excess hydrochloric acid and trapping the gas pr
dybincka [34]

Answer : The partial pressure of the hydrogen is, 705.9 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Dalton's law of partial pressure,

P_T=P_{H_2}+P_{H_2O}

where,

P_T = total pressure of the gas = 729.7 mmHg

P_{H_2} = partial pressure of the hydrogen gas = ?

P_{H_2O} = partial pressure of the water = 23.8 mmHg (standard value)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

729.7mmHg=P_{H_2}+23.8mmHg

P_{H_2}=705.9mmHg

Therefore, the partial pressure of the hydrogen is, 705.9 mmHg
