Answer:
b. a compound.
Explanation:
Electrolysis is described as a mechanism in which ionic compounds are decomposed into their elements by transmitting a direct electric current via the compound in a liquid state. At the cathode, the cations are reduced and anions at the anode are oxidized. There is an exchange between ions and atoms in the electrolysis process caused by the addition or removal between electrons from the external circuit. As per the question, the original substance is a compound because the electrolysis method is used to obtain pure elements from their respective compound.
Answer:
C. NaOH acts as a reactant in the reaction
Explanation:
Because during the saponification process, Na+ replaces the H+ in the fatty acid been used for the saponification process
The order of the answers are as follows:
B
C
D
A
According to the question, the determined melting point of the compound is 112.5-113.0oC. When the solidified compound was retried, the melting point was found to be 133.6-154.5oC. This greater range higher than 112°C is caused by reusing samples leads to errors.
A pure sample is known by its sharp melting point. A pure sample does not melt over a large range. We can see this in the predetermined melting points of the pure sample(112.5-113.0oC).
However, reusing a sample introduces errors because the pure sample may become contaminated leading to a larger and higher range of melting point (133.6-154.5oC) which is far above 112°C.
