The given reaction: 
<span>ch3ch2cooh (aq) ↔ ch3ch2coo- (aq) + h+ (aq)
is called a reversible reaction.

This means that, the reaction does not reach an end point.
In this type of reactions, reactants react together to form products, while products combine together to form reactants.
So, the reaction proceeds in both direction forming both reactants and products.</span>

Answer is: this chemical reaction is dissociation of acid.

Chemical reaction of dissociation of propanoic acid:

CH₃CH₂COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃CH₂COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).

In aqueous solution propanoic acid dissociates (covalent bond between an electronegative oxygen atom and a hydrogen atom is broken by heterolytic fission) into conjugate base (anion CH₃CH₂COO⁻) of the acid and a hydrogen cation (H⁺).

Dissociation is a process in which molecules) separate into smaller particles such as atoms or ions.

What volume of a 0.550 M solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) can be made with 19.9 g of potassium hydroxide?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.645 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to (1) convert grams to moles (using the molar mass) and then (2) calculate the volume (using the molarity ratio). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given values.

(Step 1)

Molar Mass (KOH): 39.098 g/mol + 15.998 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol

Molar Mass (KOH): 56.104 g/mol

19.9 grams KOH              1 mole
--------------------------  x  -----------------------  =  0.355 moles KOH
                                     56.014 grams

(Step 2)

Molarity = moles / volume                            <----- Molarity ratio

0.550 M = 0.355 moles / volume                 <----- Insert values

(0.550 M) x volume = 0.355 moles              <----- Multiply both sides by volume

volume = 0.645 L                                          <----- Divide both sides by 0.550

Consider the following reaction mechanism:
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Step 2 (the slow step).</u></em>

Explanation:

The rate-determining step is always the slow step of a mechanism.

That is so, because it is the slow step which limits the reaction.

Imaging that for assembling a toy you have process of three steps:

  • 1. order ten pieces, which you can do in 1 minute: meaning that you can order order the pieces for 60/1 = 60 toys in 1 hour.

  • 2. glue the pieces and hold the toy until the glue hardens, which takes 1 hour: meaning finishingh 1 toy in 1 hour.

  • 3. pack the toy, which takes 2 minutes: meaning that you can pack 60/2 = 30 toys in one hour.

The time to glue and hold one toy until the glue hardens determines that you can assemble 1 toy in 1 hour and not 60 toys or 30 toys.

Thus, the step that determines the rate at which the reaction happens is the slowest step: step 2.

Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between aqueous sodium carbonate and
ioda

Answer:

2HNO3 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) → 2NaNO3 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

Explanation:

This question is asking to write and balance an equation between between aqueous sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and aqueous nitric acid (HNO3). The equation is as follows:

HNO3 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) → NaNO3 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

However, this equation is not balanced as the number of atoms of each element must be the same on both sides of the equation. To balance the equation, one will make use of coefficients as follows:

2HNO3 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) → 2NaNO3 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)
