Explain why a solution has a lower boiling point than the pure solvent

1 answer:

7 0

Because the intention is to boil the solution, the purpose of the solvent is to dissolve so it has a higher boiling point so ensure it stays in liquid form and doesn't evaporate into a gas

also, a pure solvent is made of 1 substance so it has 1 boiling point and the solution must evaporate/boil first

What is the natural rate of nitrogen fixation in Earth’s ecosystems? What is the natural rate of nitrogen fixation in Earth’s ec

quester [9]

Answer:

100 teragrams of nitrogen per year

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixation in Earth's ecosystems is defined as a process where by nitrogen in air is transformed into ammonia or other related nitrogenous compounds. Generally, atmospheric nitrogen is referred to as molecular dinitrogen and it is a nonreactive compound that is metabolically useless to all but a few microorganisms. This process is vital to life due to the fact that inorganic nitrogen compounds are needed for the biosynthesis of amino acids, protein, and all other nitrogen-containing organic compounds. Thus, the natural rate of nitrogen fixation in Earth's ecosystems is 100 tetragrams of nitrogen per year.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Please find the image file of the chemical reaction in the attachment:

In a water medium, the CH3- type CH 3Li is a heavy nucleophile that attacks the carbonyl carbon atom to form the alkoxide ion, which will then be protonated to form alcohol.

What are the resulting coefficients when you balance the chemical equation for the combustion of ethane, c2h6? in this reaction,

Vitek1552 [10]

Balance equation for combustion of ethane will be:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g)--------> 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

To balance the equation:

1. Balance the number of carbon atom on both side:

C₂H₆(g) + O₂(g)--------> CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

1. balance the number of carbon on both side, as in reactant there are 2 but in product one,

so , multiply the CO₂, by 2 in the product.

2. Balance the number of hydrogen on both side as in reactant the number of hydrogen is 3 but in product it is 6 so, multiplythe number of H₂O by 3,

so multiply the number of H₂O by 3 in product.

3. Balance the number of oxygen on both side , as 1 and 2 step increases the number of oxygen and it becomes 7 , so to balance the number of oxygen on both side by mutiplying the number of O₂ by 7/2 in reactant .

4. Now, doubling the equation will give balance equation that is:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g)--------> 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)
