Anything can be broken down, as long as it is not as small as an atom

How might a fact be disproved? Are there some facts that will never be disproved

Answer:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 6KOH —> 3K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

The coefficients are: 1, 6, 3, 2

Explanation:

__Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + __KOH —> __K₂SO₄ + __Fe(OH)₃

To determine the correct coefficients, we shall balance the equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + KOH —> K₂SO₄ + Fe(OH)₃

There are 2 atoms of Fe on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before Fe(OH)₃ as shown below:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + KOH —> K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

There are 6 atoms of OH on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by writing 6 before KOH as shown below:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 6KOH —> K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

There are 6 atoms of K on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by writing 3 before K₂SO₄ as shown below:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 6KOH —> 3K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

Now, the equation is balanced.

Therefore, the coefficients are: 1, 6, 3, 2

If a molecule can hydrogen bond, does it guarantee that it will have a higher boiling point than a molecule that cannot? Explain
saul85 [17]

Answer:

a): not necessarily due to London Dispersion Forces and dipole-dipole interactions.  

b): not necessarily due to London Dispersion Forces.

Explanation:

There are three major types of intermolecular interaction:

  • Hydrogen bonding between molecules with H-O, H-N, or H-F bonds and molecules with lone pairs.
  • Dipole-dipole interactions between all molecules.
  • London dispersion forces between all molecules.

The melting point of a substance is a result of all three forces, combined.

Note that the more electrons in each molecule, the stronger the London Dispersion Force. Generally, that means the more atoms in each molecule, the stronger the London dispersion force. The strength of London dispersion force between large molecules can be surprisingly strong.

For example, \rm H_2O (water) molecules are capable of hydrogen bonding. The melting point of \rm H_2O at \rm 1\; atm is around 0 \; ^{\circ}\rm C. That's considerably high when compared to other three-atom molecules.

In comparison, the higher alkane hexadecane (\rm C_{16}H_{34}, straight-chain) isn't capable of hydrogen bonding. However, under a similar pressure, hexadecane melts at around 18\; ^{\circ}\rm C above the melting point of water. The reason is that with such a large number of atoms (and hence electrons) per molecule, the London dispersion force between hexadecane molecules could well be stronger than that the hydrogen bonding between water molecules.

Similarly, the dipole moments in HCl (due to the highly-polar H-Cl bonds) are much stronger than those in hexadecane (due to the C-H bonds.) However, the boiling point of hexadecane under standard conditions is much higher (at around 287\; \rm ^\circ C than that of HCl.
