Vesna [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The molarity of barium hydroxide solution is 0.118 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HClO_4

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is Ba(OH)_2

We are given:

n_1=1\\M_1=0.102M\\V_1=24.0mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=?M\\V_2=10.3mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1\times 0.102\times 24.0=2\times M_2\times 10.3\\\\M_2=0.118M

Hence, the molarity of Ba(OH)_2 solution will be 0.118 M.

Which of the following is altered by a catalyst?
Vika [28.1K]
<span>In chemistry, a catalyst can speed up the reaction (or make it initiate easier) by altering the activation energy, lowering it enough to allow the reactants to react more easily. Some negative catalysts or inhibitors can do the same by increasing the activation energy.

Which of the following describes the boundaries created by earth's tectonic systems
Dvinal [7]
The earth's plates usually move in three different ways resulting in three different types of plate margins/ boundaries: CONVERGENT, DIVERGENT and TRANSFORM plate boundaries.

When plates move towards each other, they collide and this usually either results in the denser of the plates sliding below the other plate or both plates pushing against each other resulting in both plates being pushed upwards to form often times Fold Mountains.  This type of earth tectonics causes a CONVERGENT (destructive; because the collision of the plates results in loss of earth surface area) plate boundary to be formed.

Plates can also pull away from each other and in so doing creating space usually in the form of a fissure between the two moving plates. This fissure usually also for molten earth (magma) rising to the surface and closing the opening between the plates.  This type of earth tectonic is known to form DIVERGENT (constructive; because it usually results in new land being formed) plate margins.

Plates also slide against each other (side to side) thus not resulting in neither the destruction or creation of new land.  This kind of plate margin is known as the TRANSFORM plate boundary.


The diagram below helps to solidify the points made above.

An alkene with the molecular formula C8H16 undergoes ozonolysis to yield a mixture of (CH3)2C=O and (CH3)3CCHO. The alkene is:
aalyn [17]

Answer:

2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of (CH_{3})_{2}C=O and (CH_{3})_{3}CHO

Explanation:

In ozonolysis (hydrolysis step involve a reducing agent such as Zn, Me_{2}S etc.), a pi bond is broken to form ketone/aldehyde.

Ketone is formed from di-substituted side of double bond and aldehyde is formed from mono-substituted side of double bond.

Ozoznolysis involves two consecutive steps : (1) formation of ozonide, (2) hydrolysis of ozonide.

Hydrolysis can be done with/without using reducing agent. Carboxylic acid/carbon dioxide/ketone is produced when hydrolysis is done without using reducing agent.

Here, 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of (CH_{3})_{2}C=O and (CH_{3})_{3}CHO

Reaction steps are shown below.
