Answer:
CaBr2 is a colorless solid and the charge on Calcium is +2
Explanation:
CaBr2 is a colorless solid at room temperature.
Other properties include -
a) It is a crystalline solid
b) Melting point of 765°C.
c) It is deliquescent
d) Soluble in water and absolute alcohol.
The charge of Br is -1. Here two atoms of Br attaches with one atom of calcium. Hence the charge of calcium is +2
The answer for this question is:
B. Scientific notation is used to keep track of very small and very large numbers during mathematical calculations.
Answer:
Using the Iodoform test, we can differentiate both compounds.
Explanation:
Benzaldehyde (C6H5CHO -an aldehyde) and Acetophenone (C6H5COCH3 - a methyl ketone) can be differentiated by reacting both compounds with iodine in a basic (NaOH) solutions.
The methyl ketone (acetophenone) gives a pale yellow precipitate of triiodomethane (iodoform) while the aldehyde (benzaldehyde) would not react.
This is known as the IODOFORM test and is indicative for methyl ketones
