Given the equation representing a reversible reaction:
tester [92]

Answer:

- Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and hydronium ion (H₃O⁺)

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, based on the acid-base theory which states that acids are known as H⁺ donors, if we consider the direct reaction:

CH_3COOH(aq) + H_2O \rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)

It is clear that the acetic acid is the first H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into the acetate ion. Moreover, if we consider the inverse reaction:

CH_3COO^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(aq) + H_2O

It is also clear that the hydronium ion is the second H⁺ donor as it losses one H⁺ to turn into water.

Best regards.

What does 3.5 degree of unsaturation tell you?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

It means the chemical entity is a radical

Explanation:

When we talk of unsaturation, we are referring to the number of pi-bonds in a chemical entity. The alkane, alkene and alkyne organic family are used to as common examples to explain the term unsaturation.

While alkynes have 3 bonds, it must be understood that they have 2 pi bonds only and as such their degree of saturation is two.

In the case of an alkene, there is only one single pi bond and as such the degree of unsaturation is 1.

Now in this case, we have a fractional 0.5 degree of unsaturation alongside the 3 to make a total of 3.5. So what’s the issue here?

The fractional part shows that the chemical entity we are dealing with here is a radical. While the integer 3 shows that there are 3 pi-bonds, the half pi bond remaining tells us that there is a missing electron on one of the atoms involved in the chemical bonding and as such, the 1/2 extra degree of unsaturation tends to tell us this.

Kindly recall that a radical is a chemical entity within which we have at the least an unpaired electron.

This stadium can hold 100,000, or 1 x 10^5, people. The number of atoms in a grain of iron is about 1 x 10^18. Would you need 1 
polet [3.4K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1 x 10^13 stadiums

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the question;

1 x 10^5 people can fill 1 stadium

We are given,  1 x 10^18 atoms of iron

We are required to determine the number of stadiums that  1 x 10^18 atoms of iron would occupy.

We are going to assume that a stadium would occupy a number of atoms equivalent to the number of people.

Therefore;

One stadium =  1 x 10^5 atoms

Then, to find the number of stadiums that will be occupied by  1 x 10^18 atoms;

No. of stadiums = Total number of atoms ÷ Atoms in a single stadium

                           =  1 x 10^18 atoms ÷  1 x 10^5 atoms

                          =  1 x 10^13 stadiums

Therefore,  1 x 10^18 atoms of iron would occupy  1 x 10^13 stadiums
