condensation polymerization, since a byproduct of the reaction is a single molecule of water (hence condensation of water)

addition polymerization is if you add the two polymers together like blocks and should have no byproducts

esterification is when you combine an organic acid with an alcohol. Since neither of the two polymers look like acids, you can rule this out.

never heard of saponification, Im an mechanical engineer not an organic chemist

Lithium acetate, LiCH3CO2, is a salt formed from the neutralization of the weak acid acetic acid, CH3CO2H, with the strong base

Vesna [10]

Answer : The pH of 0.289 M solution of lithium acetate at $25^oC$ is 9.1

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the value of $K_b$ .

As we know that,

$K_a\times K_b=K_w$

where,

$K_a$ = dissociation constant of an acid = $1.8\times 10^{-5}$

$K_b$ = dissociation constant of a base = ?

$K_w$ = dissociation constant of water = $1\times 10^{-14}$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get the dissociation constant of a base.

$1.8\times 10^{-5}\times K_b=1\times 10^{-14}$

$K_b=5.5\times 10^{-10}$

Now we have to calculate the concentration of hydroxide ion.

Formula used :

$[OH^-]=(K_b\times C)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

where,

C is the concentration of solution.

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$[OH^-]=(5.5\times 10^{-10}\times 0.289)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$[OH^-]=1.3\times 10^{-5}M$

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$pOH=-\log (1.3\times 10^{-5})$

$pOH=4.9$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-4.9=9.1$

Therefore, the pH of 0.289 M solution of lithium acetate at $25^oC$ is 9.1

In 1901, Thomas Edison invented the nickel-iron battery. The following reaction takes place in the battery. Fe(s) + 2 NiO(OH)(s)

lord [1]

Ans: Moles of Fe(OH)2 produced is 5.35 moles.

Given reaction:

Fe(s) + 2NiO(OH) (s) + 2H2O(l) → Fe(OH)2(s) + 2Ni(OH)2(aq)

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

1 mole of Fe reacts with 2 moles of NiO(OH) to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)2

It is given that there are:

5.35 moles of Fe

7.65 moles of NiO(OH)

Here the limiting reagent is Fe

Therefore, number of moles of Fe(OH)2 produced is 5.35 moles.

Which electron in sulfur is most shielded from nuclear charge?

natima [27]

Answer: 3p Orbitals

Explanation:

Electrons present in the 3p orbitals are farthest from the nucleus. Therefore, the electrons present in the 3p orbital will be shielded by the electrons present in the inner orbitals. Hence, 3p orbital in sulfur is most shielded from the nuclear charge".
