Polyesters are formed from the reaction of __________.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mrac [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer is C. a diol and a dicarboxylic acid

Explanation:

Because Esterification (formation of an ester) is a process that requires an alcohol to react with a carboxylic acid.

Polyester means many ester units.

one alcohol + one carboxylic acid make one ester

thus more than one of each functional groups will make more than on ester unit.

That is why diol (2OH functional groups) + dicarboxylic acid (2 Carboxyl groups) will make polyesters.

How is ti possible that, when adding protons while moving left to right across a period, the size of an atom shrinks? Why is the
Kaylis [27]

As one moves across a period, from left to right, both the number of protons and electrons of a neutral atom increase. The enhancing number of electrons and protons results in a greater attraction between the electrons and the nucleus. This uplifted attraction pulls the electrons nearer to the nucleus, therefore, reducing the size of the atom.  

On the other hand, while moving down a group, there is an increase in the number of energy levels. The enhanced number of energy levels increases the size of the atom in spite of the elevation in the number of protons. In the outermost energy levels, the protons get attracted towards the nucleus, however, the attraction is less due to an increase in the distance from the nucleus.

Yasir wants to determine if there is a relationship between room color and sleep. Based on his research, Yasir makes an educated
Fynjy0 [20]

Yasir wanted to study the relationship between sleep and room color. So he has done all the background study required on the topic and arrived at a hypothesis that people fall asleep more rapidly in a room painted in blue color than in a room painted yellow. Yasir inquired several people which color they like better -yellow or blue- and used their feedback to decide whether his hypothesis was correct. There was no experiment conducted to observe the effect of a room color on sleep and the variables to be tested in the experiment were not properly identified.

Therefore, the correct answer would be,

An experiment that directly tests the hypothesis

Variables to be tested by an experiment

An ideal gas in a cylindrical container of radius r and height h is kept at constant pressure p. The bottom of the container is
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

m =\frac{p*(pi)*r^{2}*h*mw}{R*\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}}  

Explanation:

The gas ideal law is  

PV= nRT (equation 1)

Where:

P = pressure  

R = gas constant  

T = temperature  

n= moles of substance  

V = volume  

Working with equation 1 we can get  

n =\frac{PV}{RT}

The number of moles is mass (m) / molecular weight (mw). Replacing this value in the equation we get.

\frac{m}{mw} =\frac{PV}{RT}  or  

m =\frac{P*V*mw}{R*T}   (equation 2)

The cylindrical container has a constant pressure p  

The volume is the volume of a cylinder this is

V =(pi)*r^{2}*h

Where:

r = radius  

h = height  

(pi) = number pi (3.1415)

This cylinder has a radius, r and height, h so the volume is  V =(pi)*r^{2}*h

Since the temperatures has linear distribution, we can say that the temperature in the cylinder is the average between the temperature in the top and in the bottom of the cylinder. This is:  

T =\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}  

Replacing these values in the equation 2 we get:

m =\frac{P*V*mw}{R*T}   (equation 2)

m =\frac{p*(pi)*r^{2}*h*mw}{R*\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}}

Using the balanced equation below, how many moles of water can be produced when 4 grams of Hydrogen react? 2H2(g)+O2(g) —> 2H
gavmur [86]

Answer:

4 × 10 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 2 H₂O(I)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4 g of H₂

The molar mass of H₂ is 2.02 g/mol.

4 g × 1 mol/2.02 g = 2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂O produced from 2 moles of H₂

The molar ratio of H₂ to H₂O is 2:2. The moles of H₂O produced are 2/2 × 2 mol = 2 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 2 moles of H₂O

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.

2 mol × 18.02 g/mol = 4 × 10 g
