Why are nanowhiskers used to repel stains on fabrics??

Chemistry

WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago

Nanowhiskers or cellulose nanofibers are nano-structured cellulose produced by bacteria. They have relatively high crystallinity and ability to form a dense network held together by inter-fibrillar bonds that has the tendency to act as a barrier through their film-forming properties to which they can repel stains on fabric.

raketka [301]
Pure magnesium's formula would just be Mg because all elements except for 7 nonmetals are just left alone when they are by themselves in a formula. The 7 diatomic elements( means they have to have two of them without another element attached to it aka. a subscript two after it when it's by itself) are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. An easy way to remember the diatomic seven is that when looking at a periodic table if you trace over them from nitrogen over to fluorine and down to iodine all of those elements are diatomic + hydrogen. 

And your unbalanced and balanced equations are correct.

(sorry I went on a tangent with the diatomic rules hopefully it will help you in the future though)

4NH3 (g)+502(g)-&gt;6H20g)+4NOg) What is the enthalpy change for this reaction?
Feliz [49]
Enthalpy is energy of bonds broken - energy of bonds formed. Here, the NH3 and O2 are broken and H2O and NO are formed. So the energy to break the NH3 bonds is 3 times the amount of energy it takes to break a N-H single bond (because there are three of them in a NH3 molecule) and then multiplied by 4 because there are four particles.

So the energy of the bonds broken is 12x the energy to break a N-H single bond plus 5x the amount of energy to break an O—O double bond (you don’t multiply this by anything because in each O2 molecule there is only one bond).

The energy of the bonds formed is 6*2 = 12 Times the amount of energy for a O-H single bond plus 4 times the amount of energy required to break a N—O double bond.

Subtract energy of bonds broken - energy of bonds formed and this is the change in enthalpy.

To know what type of bond it is, draw the Lewis structure.
