Explanation:

A single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which only one element of a compound is displaced by another element.

For example, 2Na + 2HCl \rightarrow 2NaCl + H_{2}

Therefore, when a metal reacts with an acid then hydrogen atom present in the acid is displaced by the metal atom.

As a result, a salt is formed along with evolution of hydrogen gas.

This reaction is similar to a single displacement type reaction.

The kind of reaction that is likely to be observed is a single displacement reaction where the metal displaces the H+ ion from the acid. The general chemical reaction would be written as 2M + 2HX = 2MX + H2 where M represents a metal and HX is the acid.

A compound is 85.7% C and 14.3% H and has a molar mass of 98g/mol, what is the compounds molecular formula?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Molecular Formula => (CH₂)₇ => C₇H₁₄      

Explanation:

Empirical ratio is calculated from the sequence...

%/100wt => grams/100wt => moles => mole ratio => reduce mole ratio => Empirical Ratio

C: 85.7% => 85.7g => (85.7/12)mol = 7.14 mole

H: 14.3%  => 14.3g =>     (14.3/1)mol = 14.3 mole

C:H mole ratio => 7.14:14.3

Reduced mole ratio (divide by the smaller mole value) => (7.14/7.14):(14.3/7.14) => Empirical Ratio => 1:2 => Empirical Formula => CH₂

Molecular Wt = Whole No. Multiple of Empirical Formula Wt.

M.Wt = N(Emp Wt) => 98g = N(14g) => N = 7

∴Molecular Formula => (CH₂)₇ => C₇H₁₄

When determining the melting point of a substance, should one use a large or a small sample in the capillary? Should the sample
REY [17]

The glass capillary having one end closed and one open end is generally used for the determination of melting point of the sample. From the open end, the sample is put into the capillary, the sample must be firmly packed as the melting point is an intrinsic property that means it is independent of sample size. So, in order to determine the melting point of the sample small sample in the capillary is sufficient to measure the melting point of the sample. To obtain the more consistent value of melting point one must pack the sample firmly in the capillary.

Hence, when determining the melting point of a substance, one should use a small sample in the capillary and the sample should be firmly packed.
