Which shows the formula for an Organic acid

Chemistry
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
3 0
Answer:
            The formula of Organic acid is as follow,

                                                 R-COOH

Explanation:
                   The class of organic acids is called Carboxylic Acids. In above general structure, R is alkyl group and can vary. While -COOH is the functional group. 
                    Carboxylic Acids has the tendency to loose protons and their pKa value depends upon the alkyl group. For example the pKa value of Acetic acid (R = -CH₃) is 4.7. The driving force for this acidity is the stability of carboxylate (conjugate base) due resonance. i.e

                               RCOOH     ⇄    RCOO⁻  +  H⁺
Where;
            RCOO⁻  =  Carboxylate Ion (Conjugate base)

Write the balanced molecular, ionic, and net ionic equations for the reaction when a solution of lithium phosphate is mixed with
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

Molecular equation;

2Li3PO4(aq) + 3CaCl2(aq) >>>> Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6LiCl(aq)

Total ionic equation; . Includes all ions ;

6Li^+(aq) + 2PO4^-3(aq) + 3Ca^+2(aq) + 6Cl^-(aq) >>>> Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6Li^+(aq) + 6Cl^-(aq)

Net ionic equation; remove common ions from total ionic;

2PO4^-3(aq) + 3Ca^+2(aq) >>>> Ca3(PO4)2(s)

14.A sample of fluorine gas has a density of _____
yarga [219]

Answer:

d = 0.793 g/L

Explanation:

Given data:

Density of fluorine gas = ?

Pressure of gas = 0.554 atm

Temperature of gas = 50 °C (50+273.15K = 323.15 K)

Solution:

Formula:

PM = dRT

M = molar mass of gas

P = pressure

R = general gas constant

T = temperature

d = PM/RT

d = 0.554 atm × 37.99 g/mol / 0.0821 atm.L /mol.K × 323.15 K

d = 21.05 atm.g/mol/26.53 atm.L /mol

d = 0.793 g/L

Electrons in conductors, like copper wire, are free to roam throughout the metal in the presence of the ions that have released
Scrat [10]

Answer:

  • <u><em>No, I would not consider a metal to be a plasma because plasma is just another state of matter, and the copper wire is in solid state.</em></u>

Explanation:

Metal is not a state of matter. Metals can be solid or liquid (molten) depending on their melting point and the temperature at which they are.

Plasma is a state of matter, similar to gas, but it is reached only at very high temperatures like in the Sun. The particles in plasma state are not neutral atoms or molecules but negatively charged  ions and electrons.

The copper wire is yet a solid, thus it cannot be considered a plasma.

Metals can be in plasma state only if the temperature is too high, like the temperatures in the stars. In fact, the metals in the Sun and other hotter stars are in plasma state.
