Answer:

Complex formation

Explanation:

At first sight, one may think that a reaction between calcium oxalate and platinum metal is impossible considering the relative positions of the two metals in the electrochemical series.

However, in solution, calcium oxalate dissociates into calcium and oxalate ions. When platinum is added to this solution, a complex is formed between the platinum ions and the oxalate ions. Hence a reaction occurs for this reason.

Answer:

The reaction that occurs between calcium oxalate and platinum is called Complex formation.

Explanation:

First of all, one might have this belief that there is no possible way a reaction would occur between platinum metal and calcium oxalate, it is taking into consideration because of the relative positions of the two metals in the electro-chemical series.

But in a solution, calcium oxalate seperate into oxalate and calcium ions. when the platinum is put oradded to this solution, a complex is formed between the oxalate ions and platinum ions. then what occurs next is a reaction.

Which of the following molecules would have the strongest London Dispersion Force?

weeeeeb [17]

Answer: D

Explanation:

London forces become stronger as the atom in question becomes larger, and to a smaller degree for large molecules. [4] This is due to the increased polarizability of molecules with larger, more dispersed electron clouds. The polarizability is a measure of ease with which electrons can be redistributed; a large polarizability implies that the electrons are more easily redistributed. This trend is exemplified by the halogens (from smallest to largest: F 2 , Cl2 , Br 2 , I 2 ). The same increase of dispersive attraction occurs within and between organic molecules in the order RF<RCL<RBr<RI, or with other more polarizable heteroatoms. [5] Fluorine and chlorine are

gases at room temperature, bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid. The London forces are thought to be arise from the motion of electrons.

Click on the graph to show the correct relationship between altitude and boiling point

spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

This graph shows that an increase in altitude causes a relative decrease in boiling point temperatures. The two variables, it can be said, are inversely proportional.

This is because, with an increase in altitude, there is a proportionate decrease in air pressure. This means the vapor pressure of the fluid becomes strong enough, at a relatively lower temperature, to overcome the air pressure and for the liquid to boil.

This is why water can even boil without inputting heat into it but rather by just reducing the ambient air pressure.
