The synthetic compound Zn(C2H3O2)2 is zinc acetic acid derivation. The molecular composition demonstrates that the mixes incorporate zinc, spoke to by Zn; carbon, spoke to by C; hydrogen, spoke to by H; and oxygen, spoke to by O. Below is the <span>an equation that shows how the anion acts as a base:

</span>

C2H3O2−(aq)+H2O(l)⇌<span>HC2H3O2(aq)+OH−(aq)</span>

Explanations:- Acetate ion is a conjugate base of a weak acid(acetic acid). From Bronsted-Lowry concept of acid and base, "Acids are proton donor where as bases are proton acceptors.

To work as a base, acetate ion would be accepting a proton. Water is an amphoteric compound means it could act as an acid as well as a base. So, let's write the reaction of acetate ion with water to show how it acts as a base.

C_2H_3O_2^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons HC_2H_3O_2(aq)+OH^-(aq)

In the above reaction, acetate ion has accepted a proton from water means its a base and since water has donated a proton so its an acid.

Acetic acid is the conjugate acid of acetate ion and hydroxide ion is the conjugate base of water.

If the solution containing the metal complex ion is made acidic, why will the silver chloride precipitate
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer,

For example, silver ion can be precipitated with hydrochloric acid to yield solid silver chloride. Because many cations will not react with hydrochloric acid in this way, this simple reaction can be used to separate ions that form insoluble chlorides from those that do not.

A urine sample has a mass of 147 g and a density of 1.020 g/mL. What is the volume of this sample?
son4ous [18]

So we know that the equation for density is:

D=\frac{m}{V}

where D is the density, m is the mass in grams, and V is the volume in mL.

So since we know two of the variables, mass and density, we can solve for the volume:

\frac{1.020g}{mL}=\frac{147g}{V}

V=\frac{147g}{\frac{1.020g}{mL}}

V=144.12mL

Therefore, the volume of this urine sample is 144.12mL.

What is the equilibrium expression for the reaction below?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

A. K=\frac{[N_2O]^2}{[N_2]^2[O_2]}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for us to figure out the appropriate equilibrium expression, it will be firstly necessary for us to recall the law of conservation of mass which states that the equilibrium constant of an equilibrium chemical reaction is written by dividing the products and reactants and including the stoichiometric coefficients as exponents. In such a way, for the given reaction, we will have:

K=\frac{[N_2O]^2}{[N_2]^2[O_2]}

As N2O is the product whereas N2 and O2 are reactants; thus, the equilibrium expression will be A.

Regards!

Which best describes the oxidizing agent in this reaction? Cl2(aq) + 2Br(aq) 2Cl(aq) + Br2(aq) Bromine (Br) is the oxidizing age
steposvetlana [31]
Answer:
            <span>Chlorine (Cl) is the oxidizing agent because it gains an electron.

Explanation:
                   Reaction is as follow,

</span><span>                     Cl</span>₂<span> (aq)  +  2 Br</span>⁻<span> (aq)    </span>→   <span> 2Cl(aq)  +  Br</span>₂ <span>(aq)

Oxidation Reaction:

                                    2 Br</span>⁻     →     Br₂  +  2 e⁻

Two atoms of Br⁻ (Bromide) looses two electrons to form Br₂ molecule. Hence it is oxidized and is acting as reducing agent.

Reduction Reaction:

                                   Cl₂  +  2 e⁻    →     2 Cl⁻

One molecule of Cl₂ gains two electrons to form two chloride ions (Cl⁻). Therefore, it is reduced and has oxidized Br⁻, Hence, acting as a oxidizing agent.
