Which compound is an unsaturated hydrocarbon

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are those in which each carbon atom is attached to as many hydrogen atoms as it possibly can. There can be no double bonds or non-hydrogen functional groups, since these detract from the maximum possible number of hydrogens that each carbon can be attached to (in the case of double bonds, two carbons are bonded to each other when they could alternately be bonded to one more hydrogen each). All of the alkanes (including the cycloalkanes) are saturated hydrocarbons. Substituted alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and their cyclic counterparts are all unsaturated.

Is it possible to change the strength of an acid? Explain how you would do this.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Reducing or increasing the amount of H+ ions / hydronium (H3O+) ions

Explanation:

To reduce the pH (reducing the strength of the acid) can be done by adding a base (including a conjugate base such as bicarbonate ion) which will absorb the H+ ions either through adsorption or reaction.

Adding more H+ decreases the pH of the acid making it stronger. This can be done by adding HCL that will dissociate and increase the H+ ions.

How many grams of hcl can be produced from the reaction of 23 moles of h2 and 875g of cl2?

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: 899 g

Explanation:

Since the mass of a mole of diatomic chlorine is about 70.9 g/mol, this means that 875 grams is about 875/70.9 = 12.3 mol.

Hence, we know that chlorine is the limiting reactant, and that about 12.3 moles of chlorine will be consumed.

This means that 12.3(2)=24.6 grams of HCl will be produced, which will have a mass of about (24.6)(36.46)=899 g
