Answer:

Fertilizers are chemicals that kill plants.

Explanation:

Fertilizers are not pesticides. Fertilizers helps to improve plant yield by supplying nutrients needed for plant growth and food formation. When fertilizers are applied to plants, the nutrient pool increases and plants can readily grow without any deficiency resulting from lack of one mineral or the other.

Herbicides are used to kill plants.

Calculate the mass in grams of benzophenone required to make a solution of 2.5 mmoles
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

0.46 grams (C₆H₅)₂CO

Explanation:

To find the mass of benzophenone ((C₆H₅)₂CO), you need to (1) convert mmoles to moles and then (2) convert moles to grams (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 2 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value (2.5 mmoles).

Molar Mass ((C₆H₅)₂CO): 13(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol

Molar Mass ((C₆H₅)₂CO): 182.221 g/mol

2.5 mmoles (C₆H₅)₂CO               1 mole                  182.221 g
-----------------------------------  x  ------------------------  x  -------------------  =
                                                1,000 mmoles            1 mole

=  0.46 grams (C₆H₅)₂CO

Upon dissolving in , undergoes a disproportionation reaction according to the following unbalanced equation: This disproportiona
pychu [463]

Answer:

The question in the narrative seems not to be complete because the unbalanced equation was not given and the values of the second(s) and  chemical dissolved was also not given.

Kindly find the complete question below and if you feel the question is still correct, the solution provided is still implies but without the values inserted.

Correct Question:

Upon dissolving InCl(s) in HCl , In(aq)  undergoes a disproportionation reaction according to the following unbalanced equation:

In ⁺ (aq) → In(s) → In³⁺ (aq)

This disproportionation follows first-order kinetics with a half-life of 667s. What is the concentration of In⁺ (aq) after 1.25 h if the initial solution of In⁺ (aq) was prepared by dissolving 2.38 g InCl(s) in dilute HCl to make 5.00 x 10² mL of solution? What mass of In(s) is formed after 1.25h?

Solution / Explanation:

Given half life of In⁺ at 66.7 s,

We recall the formula used in claculating the rate of constant for the first oreder reactin as :

K = 0.693 / t₁÷2,

Noting that:

t₁÷2 = half life

and K= rate constant

Therefore, if we replace the value of  t₁÷2  in the formular above,

We have,

K = 0.693 / 667s

K = 0.00 /s

Now, if we recall the mass of InCl(s) as 2.38g,

Volume of dilute HCl = 500 mL,

and the molar mass of  InCl(s) - 150.271 g/mol,

The number of moles is then calculated using the formular:

Number of moles: = Given Mass/Molar Mass

Now replacing the given values of given mass and the molar mass in the above formular,

= 2.38g / 150.271g/mol

= 0.0158 mol

Volume of diluted 500 mL.

Recalling also that we need to convert from mL into Liters

Therefore,  1mL = 10⁻³L

Therefore,

500mL = (500 X 10⁻³)L

0.5 L

Now, the molarrity of In⁺ (aq) is calculated using

morality of In⁺ (aq) = moles of In⁺ (aq)/volume of solution

= 0.0158/0.5L

=0.0316M (This is the initial concentration of In⁺ (aq))

The time of the reaction is 1.25h

There is 3600s in one hour

1.25h = 1.25 x 3600

= 4500s

Hydrogen bond is not formed by 1) oxygen 2) nitrogen 3) chlorine
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Chlorine

Explanation:

Even though chlorine is highly electronegative, the best answer is no, and in this class we will consider chlorine not to form hydrogen bonds (even though it has the same electronegativity as oxygen). This is because chlorine is large and its lone electron is in a diffuse orbital, covering a large area, and thus do not have the high charge density to act as a strong hydrogen bond acceptor. But it does form weak hydrogen bonds in solid crystalline hydrogen chloride at very low temperatures.
