nevsk [136]

Answer:

Phenols do not exhibit the same pka values as other alcohols;

They are generally more acidic.

Using the knowledge that hydrogen acidity is directly related to the stability of the anion formed, explain why phenol is more acidic than cyclohexane.

Explanation:

According to Bromsted=Lowry acid-base theory,

an acid is a substance that can release $H^{+}$ ions when dissolved in water.

So, acid is a proton donor.

If the conjugate base of an acid is more stable then, that acid is a strong acid.

In the case of phenol,

the phenoxide ion formed is stabilized by resonance.

$C_6H_5OH -> C_6H_5O^- +H^+$

The resonance in phenoxide ion is shown below:

Whereas in the case of cyclohexanol resonance is not possible.

So, cyclohexanol is a weak acid compared to phenol.

Write a rap about fossils please

givi [52]

Answer:

CHORUS 1:

Fossil rocks are in the ground tonight

They’ve been down there for a really long time

They contain the history of life

They’ve been down there for a really long time

Fossil rocks are in the ground tonight

They’ve been down there for a really long time (They’re the schist*)

They are literally on the grind

Take your hammer out and... break that

VERSE 1:

Look at the ground. Partly rock

Plus plants and animals stuck in their spot. Huh

Each new layer stackin’ up

So the oldest on the bottom and the newest on top

“So how old is your fossil, bro?”

Well it was pretty far down so it’s pretty darn old

And I dated this one, so I gots to know

It’s from 3.5 billion years ago

Yo. I got that lava flow, Volcano

Air full of particles & smoke

There goes life as they know

Now that’s a blast! But most rocks ain’t movin’ that fast

The sediment’s evidence. Like a present tellin’ us of the past

CHORUS 2:

Take your chisel out and… flake that

BREAK:

Everyday I’m Shovelin’…

Brushin’ ‘em, Brushin’ ‘em

VERSE 2:

Brush it off and hear the story of life as told through rock

The story of the earth as told through life. Now stop... do the trilobite

Continental plates (are driftin’)

Mountains in the states (upliftin’)

Tend to isolate (species)

By affecting who you mate with (believe me)

Slow moves. Long time. Push up mountains to the sky

Slow moves. Long time. Open up a great divide

Slow moves. Long time. Fossils found on either side

Fossils found they tell us why... tell the history of life....

Slow moves. Long time. Slow moves. Long time

Plates are driftin’ at ya boy. Plates are driftin’ at ya boy

Plates are driftin’ at ya boy. Now boom. There’s an asteroid

For a particular redox reaction, Cr is oxidized to CrO 2 − 4 and Ag + is reduced to Ag . Complete and balance the equation for t

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

6Ag⁺ + Cr + 8OH⁻ → 6Ag + CrO₄²⁻ + 4H₂O

Explanation:

We can balance the redox reaction of Cr and Ag⁺, in terms of two half-reactions, one for Ag⁺ and other for Cr:

Ag⁺ → Ag

In the above equation we need to balance the number of electrons, we know that the Ag⁺ is being reduced to Ag, so the reaction is:

Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag (1)

Now, we need to balance the half-reaction of Cr:

Cr → CrO₄²⁻

From above, we know that the Cr is being oxidated to CrO₄²⁻, so we need to balance the number of electrons and the number of oxygen atoms. The Cr⁰ is being oxidated to Cr⁶⁺, so for the electron balance, we need to add 6e⁻ to the right side of the equation. Since the reaction is in a basic medium, the oxygen atoms will be balanced with OH⁻ ions as follows:

Cr + OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻

The hydrogen atoms will be balanced using H₂O molecules:

Cr + OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻ + H₂O

The balanced equation is:

Cr + 8OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻ + 4H₂O (2)

Since the reaction (1) involves 1 electron and the reaction (2) involves 6 electrons, by increasing the reaction (1) six times and by the addition of the two reactions (1 and 2) we can have the net redox reaction:

6*(Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag)

6Ag⁺ + Cr + 8OH⁻ → 6Ag + CrO₄²⁻ + 4H₂O

Therefore, the net equation is: 6Ag⁺ + Cr + 8OH⁻ → 6Ag + CrO₄²⁻ + 4H₂O.

I hope it helps you!
