<span>Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid. It is comprised of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and potassium. Put differently, its chemical formula is: CH3CH=CH−CH=CH−CO2K. Potassium sorbate is significantly more stable than plain potassium, and it is often used to preserve food.</span>

consider a 1000-ml graduated cylinder with marks every 100 ml. a student records the volume of liquid in the cylinder as 750 ml.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

The 1000-ml graduated cylinder with marks every 100 ml has least count of 100 ml . It means it can not measure a volume less than 100 ml . It can also measure volume in the integral multiple of 100 ml like 200 ml , 300 ml , 400 ml etc perfectly .  All these have significant figure of one .

It can not measure volume like 150 , 250 , 255 , 760 etc because these measurements are not the integral multiple of 100 . 750 is not a integral multiple of 100 so it can not measure volume of 750 ml.

An element X on reacting with oxygen forms an oxide X2O. this oxide dissolves in water and turns blue litmus red. a) Identify th
galben [10]

Answer:

The unknown element is Carbon.

(a) X is Carbon, its oxide is of acidic nature

(b) C+ O2 → CO2

Explanation:

We are given an unknown element that reacts with oxygen.

X + O2 → XO2

It is given that the oxide XO2 turns blue litmus red which is shown by acids, so XO2 is an acidic oxide. Also X will be a Non metal because Non metallic oxide is Acidic in nature.

The Oxide XO2 is dissolving is water. The oxide upon reacting with water will give an Acid.

XO2 type of oxide is found in the 14th group of the periodic table generally

So we have options like C, Si and Ge as these only have the Acidic oxide.

But when it comes to reactivity with water Only Carbon satisfies the need so the unknown element X is C.

CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 which is an acid.

(a) Element X is Carbon (C), The nature of the compound formed is Acidic.

(b) The reaction given will be as follows

     C+ O2 → CO2

Therefore the unknown element is Carbon.

the normal boiling point of ethanol is 78.3 and its molar heat of vaporization is 393. Calculate the vapor pressure of ethanol a
madam [21]

<u>0.12 atm</u><u> </u><u>vapor pressure</u><u> of ethanol at 45.0 C.</u>

What is vapor pressure in science definition?

  • Vapour pressure is a measure of the tendency of a material to change into the gaseous or vapour state, and it increases with temperature.
  • The temperature at which the vapour pressure at the surface of a liquid becomes equal to the pressure exerted by the surroundings is called the boiling point of the liquid.

We will use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation,

ln(P2/P1) = dHvap/R[1/T1-1/T2]

where,

P1 = unknown

P2 = 1 atm

T1 = 30 oC = 30 + 273 = 303 K

T2 = 78.3 oC = 78.3 + 273 = 351.3 K

dHvap = 39.3 kJ/mol = 39300 J/mol

R = 8.314 J/K.mol

Feed values,

ln(1/P1) = 39300/8.314[1/303 - 1/351.3]

P1 = 0.12 atm

thus, the vapor pressure at 30° C is 0.12 atm.

Determine the kinds of intermolecular forces that are present in each element or compound. Part A KrKr Check all that apply. Che
OLga [1]

Answer:

The kinds of intermolecular forces that are present in each element Kr-Kr.

Explanation:

Since Kr is an inert gas and in atomic form only it is highly stable.

So, Kr gas does not form molecules.

Between the atoms of inert gas, there exist London dispersion forces.

Hence, the intermolecular forces that are present between Kr-Kr atoms is London dispersion forces.
