1What is ""Fremy's salt""? Write the molecular formula of Fremy's salt. Write the structure of the product obtained from phenol.
EastWind [94]

Answer and Explanation:

The Fremy salt is a chemical compound its chemical name is disodium nitrosodisuphonate

The molecular formula of the Fremy salt is K_2NO(SO_3)_2

When phenol is treated with Fremy salt in presence of water then benzoquinone is formed

C_2H_5OH\rightarrow C_6H_4O_2 ( in presence of Fremy salt and water)

You wish to construct a buffer of pH=7.0. Which of the following weak acids (w/ corresponding conjugate base) would you select?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8

Explanation:

In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below

we Know that

pKa= -log(Ka)

therefore

A) pKa of  HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)

=1.9208

B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644

C)  pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45

D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)=  9.3979

If we consider the  Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution

The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.

So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.

Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.

Tema [17]

Answer: In order to increase the rate of reaction between hydrochloric acid and sugar increase the concentration of hydrochloric acid to 2 M because greater concentration results in more collision between the reactants.

Explanation:

More is the concentration of reactant molecules more will be the number of collisions between their molecules. As a result, more readily the products will be formed.

Hence, for the given reaction when concentration of HCl is increased then there will be increase in the number of collisions between reactants.

Thus, we can conclude that in order to increase the rate of reaction between hydrochloric acid and sugar increase the concentration of hydrochloric acid to 2 M because greater concentration results in more collision between the reactants.

What is the molecular formula of compound x?
givi [52]
Since there is one carbon with 4 Fluorines attached to it, and both compounds are no metals, we use the covalent method for naming,

Here we ignore the prefix for the first element if it is 1. Mono. Then pay attention to the second one, it would be tetra, because tetra means 4. Here there are 4 fluorines.

Drop ine and place ide

CF4 = carbon tetrafluoride.
