Answer:

Electrolytes are substances that can ionize in water. They could be acids, bases or salts as long as they give ions when they dissolve in water.

Explanation:

  • <em>Strong electrolytes</em> completely ionize when dissolved in water, leaving no neutral molecules. The strong electrolytes here are:<u> salt water</u>, <u>baking soda (NaHCO3) solution.</u>
  • <em>Weak electrolytes</em> do not completely dissociate in solution, and hence have a low ionic yield. Examples of this would be<u> vinegar </u>and <u>bleach </u>(which could be sodium hypochlorite or chlorine, which are weakly dissociated).
  • <em>Non-electrolytes </em>will remain as molecules and are not ionized in water at all. In this case, <u>sugar solution is a non-electrolytes</u>, even though sugar dissolves in water, but it remains as a whole molecule and not ions.

How many moles of CO2 are produced from the combustion of 5.25 moles of CH3OH?
iVinArrow [24]

First, we write the reaction for CH3OH combustion

CH3OH+3/2O2--->CO2+2H2O

for 1 mole of methanol, we get 1 mole of CO2, therefore for 5,25 moles of methanol we will get 5,25 moles of CO2

Consider the reaction below. 2K+Br2------&gt;2K+ +2Br-
sergeinik [125]
Answer: only Br2.

Justification.

In  a chemical reaction the element that gains electrons experiments a reduction in its oxidation state, that is why it is said that it is reduced.

So, to know what element is being reduced you need to calculate the oxidation states of the elements involved.

Here I indicate the oxidation states of each element if the reaction putting them inside parenthesis:

Reactants side          Products side

K (0)                           K (1+)
    
Br (0)                          Br(1-)

So, K lost one electron, increasing its oxidation statefrom  0 to 1+, meaning that it is being oxidized.

And, each atom of Br gained one electron, reducing its oxidation state from 0 to 1-, meaning it is being reduced.

Therefore, the answer is that Br2 is the substance being reduced.

For many purposes we can treat propane
dangina [55]

Answer:The volume increases by 11%

Explanation:

When the pressure is decreased, the volume must definitely increase, to maintain the same pressure, the temperature must then also be increased as we see in the question. The volume was increased just as the pressure decreased and the temperature had to be increased to maintain a constant pressure. We have applied the general gas equation in solving the problem.
