Describe the solubility of water compared to ethanol?

Chemistry

Neko [114]3 years ago
4 0
As you know ethanol is a an alcohol and alcohol is a hydrocarbon. Alcohol is made up of a carbon chain which Is always non polar and a OH group which is polar. According to the solubility rule like substances dissolves like substance. Using ethanol chemical formula. Ethanol has a 2 carbon chain and a OH group. water is polar so it will be attracted to the OH group. Carbon chain on the other hand is nonpolar so it will be repelled from the water.


Therefore the Solubility of alcohols is determined by the stronger of the two forces. The strength of the attraction of the OH group, and the amount of water they dissolve in.

Benzene is a starting material in the synthesis of nylon fibers and polystyrene (styrofoam). Its specific heat capacity is 1.74
Leona [35]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The amount of energy released or absorbed is equal the product of the mass, the specific heat capacity and the temperature change. The temperature change being the difference between the final and initial temperature.

Q = mc∆T

Q = heat energy (Joules, J) m = mass of a substance (kg) c = specific heat (units J/g∙K)

∆ is a symbol meaning "the change in" ∆T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)

From the data provided in the question, we can deduce that:

Q = 16.7KJ = 16,700J

m = 225g

c = 1.74J/g.k

For the temperature, let the final temperature be f. This means our ∆T = f - 20

16,700 = 225 * 1.74 * (f - 20)

16700 = 391.5 (f - 20)

f - 20 = 16700/391.5

f - 20 = 42.7

f = 20 + 42.7 = 62.7

One mechanism for the synthesis of ammonia proposes that N₂ and H₂ molecules catalytically dissociate into atoms:N₂ ⇆ 2N(g) log
Pavlova-9 [17]

The artificial fixation of nitrogen (N2) has enormous energy, environmental, and societal impact, the most important of which is the synthesis of ammonia (NH3) for fertilizers that help support nearly half of the world's population.

<h3>Artificial fixation of nitrogen</h3>

a) The equilibrium constant expression is Kp​=PCH4​​ PH2​ O​P CO​×PH 2​3​​.

(b) (i) As the pressure increases, the equilibrium will shift to the left so that less number of moles are produced.

(ii) For an exothermic reaction, with the increase in temperature, the equilibrium will shift in the backward direction.

(iii) When a catalyst is used, the equilibrium is not disturbed. The equilibrium is quickly attained
