<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is six.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical name for the given chemical formula is methanol. This is an organic compound in which a covalent bond is present between hydrogen and carbon atom.

In a single mole of this compound, there are 3 different types of elements are present. The elements are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

In 1 mole of methanol, 1 mole of carbon atom, 4 moles of hydrogen atoms and 1 mole of oxygen atoms are present.

Thus, in total 6 atoms are present in 1 mole of methanol molecule.

What chemical process is responsible for the smell of vinegar in an old bottle of aspirin?
Oliga [24]

Chemical process is responsible for the smell of vinegar in an old bottle of aspirin is Hydrolysis of ester i.e. Aspirin.

Aspirin reacts with water leading to the formation of Acetic acid which is a Carboxylic acid derivative.

Aspirin on Hydrolysis forms Acetic acid and Salicylic acid.

The reaction shows up as a fizz when aspirin is added in water.

Aspirin is called Acetyl Salicylic acid and it helps to reduce:

  • Inflammation
  • Pain
  • Fever
  • Headache
  • Arthritis
  • Muscle pain
  • Tooth pain

Acetic acid or Ethanoic acid is a colorless liquid. It is an important carboxylic acid. It smells like vinegar.

Acetic acid is used for production of following:

  • Vinyl Acetate
  • Insecticides
  • Rubber
  • Acetic anhydride

Salicylic acid is a bitter compound which is colorless. It reduces acne and opens up the skin pores.

Metals react with oxygen to give oxides with the general formula MxOy. What is a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of
katovenus [111]

Answer: 4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here iron is having an oxidation state of +3 called as Fe^{3+} cation and oxide O^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral Fe_2O_3.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

2Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3
