During the combustion of coal, the carbon in coal reacts with the oxygen in the atmosphere to form carbon dioxide. A, B, and C r

epresent the masses of compounds either used up or formed by the combustion of coal.
A = 12 grams, B = 44 grams, C = 32 grams

Which of the following statements supports the conclusion that combustion of coal follows the law of conservation?
A.The total mass of A and C, which are carbon dioxide and oxygen, is equal to the mass of B, which is carbon.
B.The total mass of A and C, which are carbon and oxygen, is equal to the mass of B, which is carbon dioxide.
C.The total mass of B and C, which are carbon and oxygen, is greater than the mass of A, which is carbon dioxide.
D.The total mass of A and B, which are carbon and oxygen, is greater than the mass of C, which is carbon dioxide.

Answer: option <span>B.The total mass of A and C, which are carbon and oxygen, is equal to the mass of B, which is carbon dioxide.
</span>

Explanation:

1) The combustion of carbon is represented by the chemical equation:

C + O₂ → CO₂

2)  The law of conservation of mass states that the mass of the products is equal to the mass of the reactants.

3)  The reactants are C and O₂, while the product is CO₂.

4) The masses given are: A: 12 g, B: 44 g, and C: 32 g

Then, 12g + 32 g = 44 g, this is A + C = B.

Then, B represents the product, which is CO₂, whose molar mass is 44 g/mol.

Since, the molar mass of C is 12 g/mol, it is A; and since the molar mass of O₂ is 32, it is C.

Therefore, the answer is the option B.

Give the major force between ethanol and rubbing alcohol.
insens350 [35]
The major force between ethanol and rubbing alcohol is hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bond are intermolecular force that are weaker than covalent bond but holds atoms together in a molecules. For an hydrogen bond to be formed, a molecule must contain an hydrogen atom that will be bonded to one of the most electronegative element.

Explain the reason for low melting and boiling point of a covalent compound ​
mylen [45]

Answer:

Covalent compounds have weak forces of attraction between the binding molecules. Thus less energy is required to break the force of bonding. Therefore covalent compounds have low melting and boiling point.

The pH of a basic solution is 9.77. What is [OH⁻]?
uysha [10]

The  [OH⁻] of the solution is 5.37×10⁵ M.

<h3 /><h3>What is pOH?</h3>

This is the negative logarithm to base 10 of hydroxy ion [OH⁻] concentration.

To calculate the hydroxy ion [OH⁻] concentration we use the formula below.

Note:

  • pH+pOH = 14
  • pOH = 14-pH
  • pOH = 14-9.77
  • pOH = 4.27

Formula:

  • [OH⁻] = 1/10^{pOH}................. Equation 1

Given:

  • pOH = 4.27

Substitute the value into equation 1

  • [OH⁻] = 1/10^{4.27}
  • [OH⁻]  = 5.37×10⁵

Hence, The [OH⁻] of the solution is 5.37×10⁵ M.

Compounds are formed when the atoms of two or more elements are chemically combined.
yuradex [85]
Fully donating an electron results in an ionic bond, so A is the correct answer.

In comparison, B, a hydrogen bond, is a bond that forms between an H in one compound and an O, N, or F in another.  It is among the strongest of intermolecular forces, while ionic/covalent bonds are intramolecular.

C, a covalent bond, is a bond that forms when atoms share electrons instead of donating them.
