Which of the following will be most soluble in octane?

Chemistry
1 answer:
natima [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

CH3CH3CH2CH3

Explanation:

Octane is a non-polar compound. It is a hydrocarbon with 8-carbon length along its chain.

It belongs to a special group of hydrocarbons called alkanes.

What makes a substance soluble in another?

   It is a common phrase that  "like dissolves like". This is applicable to solubility of substances in another.

  • A polar solvent will freely and easily dissolve a polar solute. For example, water and salt.
  • A non-polar solvent will also dissolve a non-polar solute. This case, hydrocarbons will dissolve themselves.
  • The first option is a butane, a 4-carbon length hydrocarbon which will be dissolved in octane.
  • Both compounds are non-polar.

zaharov [31]

Answer:

0.35 V

Explanation:

(a) Standard reduction potentials

                            <u> E°/V</u>

Fe²⁺ + 2e- ⇌ Fe; -0.41

Cr³⁺ + 3e⁻ ⇌ Cr; -0.74

(b) Standard cell potential

                                             <u>  E°/V</u>

2Cr³⁺ + 6e⁻ ⇌ 2Cr;               +0.74

<u>3Fe  ⇌ 3Fe²⁺ + 6e-;             </u>  <u>-0.41 </u>

2Cr³⁺ + 3Fe ⇌ 2Cr + 3Fe²⁺; +0.33

3. Cell potential

2Cr³⁺(0.75 mol·L⁻¹) + 6e⁻ ⇌ 2Cr

<u>3Fe  ⇌ 3Fe²⁺(0.25 mol·L⁻¹) + 6e- </u>

2Cr³⁺(0.75 mol·L⁻¹) + 3Fe ⇌ 2Cr + 3Fe²⁺(0.25 mol·L⁻¹)

The concentrations are not 1 mol·L⁻¹, so we must use the Nernst equation

E = E^{\circ} - \dfrac{RT}{zF}\ln Q

(a) Data

  E° = 0.33 V

   R = 8.314 J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

   T = 298 K

   z = 6

   F = 96 485 C/mol

(b) Calculations:  

Q = \dfrac{\text{[Fe}^{2+}]^{3}}{ \text{[Cr}^{3+}]^{2}} = \dfrac{0.25^{3}}{ 0.75^{2}} =\dfrac{0.0156}{0.562} = 0.0278\\\\E = 0.33 - \left (\dfrac{8.314 \times 298}{6 \times 96485}\right ) \ln(0.0278)\\\\=0.33 -0.00428 \times (-3.58) = 0.33 + 0.0153 = \textbf{0.35 V}\\\text{The cell potential is }\large\boxed{\textbf{0.35 V}}

Will magnesium and fluorine atoms most likely form an ionic bond or a covalent bond?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Ionic bond

Explanation:

The magnesium atom gives up 2 electrons to form a magnesium ion, Mg2+ . The two electrons are transferred to fluorine atoms to form two fluoride ions, F–.

Which of the following samples contains the greatest number of atoms?
mart [117]

Answer:

C. 11 moles of N2O

Explanation:

A. CO2 exists as a molecular compound. The number of atoms present = 1 atom of Carbon and 2 atoms oxygen = 3 atoms * 9 = 18 atoms

B. Xe exists as an atom. Number of atoms present = 10 * 1 atom = 10 atoms

C. N20 contains 3 atoms; 2 atoms of Nitrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

Number of atoms present = 3 * 11 = 33 atoms

D. CO contains 2 atoms, 1 each of carbon and oxygen.

Number of atoms present = 12 * 2 = 24 atoms

2) Calculate the mass(g) of the following substances:<br> b) 0.119 mole MgCl2
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

MgCl2 = 24 + 2(35.5)

= 95

mass of substance = mol × molar mass

= 0.119 × 95

= 11.305 g
