Answer:

Ethyne is more suitable answer.

Explanation:

Among all the three, alkanes are least reactive, as they have all the saturated bonds between carbon carbon atoms. They have no polarity in them.

Alkenes have one pi bond between two carbon atoms while alkynes have two pi bonds between two carbons.

The pi bond is easy to break, so generally we consider that due to two pi bonds alkyne are more reactive than alkenes.

However, it should be noted that in electrophilic addition reaction, alkene are more reactive than alkynes.

</span>
Answer is: 4) both the rate of dissolving and the rate of crystallization are equal and greater than zero.
Silver chloride (AgCl) dissolves and form silver and chlorine ions, in the same time silver and chlorine ions crystallizate and form solid salt silver chloride.
In equilibrium rates of dissolvinf and crysallization and concentration of ions do not change.

Nitric acid (HNO3) is used in the production of fertilizer, dyes, drugs, and explosives. Calculate the pH of a HNO3 solution hav

Alona [7]

Answer:

pH of HNO₃ having an hydrogen ion concentration of 0.71M is 0.149

Explanation:

HNO₃ (aqueous) ⇄ H⁺ + NO3⁻

The pH is defined as the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration

pH = - log [H⁺]

From the question, the hydrogen ion concentration is given as 0.71M, therefore

pH = -log [0.71]

= 0.149

What mass of Fe(OH)3 is produced when 35 mL of 0.250 M Fe(NO3)3 solution is mixed with 55 mL of a 0.180 M

Zina [86]

Answer:

0.35 g.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of Fe(NO3)3 in 35 mL of 0.250 M Fe(NO3)3 solution.

This is illustrated below:

Molarity of Fe(NO3)3 = 0.250 M

Volume = 35 mL = 35/1000 = 0.035 L

Mole of Fe(NO3)3 =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.250 = mole of Fe(NO3)3 / 0.035

Cross multiply

Mole of Fe(NO3)3 = 0.25 x 0.035

Mole of Fe(NO3)3 = 8.75×10¯³ mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of KOH in 55 mL of 0.180 M

KOH solution. This is illustrated below:

Molarity of KOH = 0.180 M

Volume = 55 mL = 55/1000 = 0.055 L

Mole of KOH =.?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.180 = mole of KOH /0.055

Cross multiply

Mole of KOH = 0.180 x 0.055

Mole of KOH = 9.9×10¯³ mole.

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

3KOH + Fe(NO3)3 —> Fe(OH)3 + 3KNO3

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of KOH reacted with 1 mole of Fe(NO3)3 to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of KOH reacted with 1 mole of Fe(NO3)3.

Therefore, 9.9×10¯³ mole of KOH will react with = (9.9×10¯³ x 1)/3 = 3.3×10¯³ mole of Fe(NO3)3.

From the above illustration, we can see that only 3.3×10¯³ mole out of 8.75×10¯³ mole of Fe(NO3)3 given is needed to react completely with 9.9×10¯³ mole of KOH.

Therefore, KOH is the limiting reactant and Fe(NO3)3 is the excess reactant.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Fe(OH)3 produced from the reaction.

In this case, we shall use the limiting reactant because it will give the maximum yield of Fe(OH)3 as all of it is consumed in the reaction.

The limiting reactant is KOH and the mole of Fe(OH)3 produce can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of KOH reacted to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Therefore, 9.9×10¯³ mole of KOH will react to produce = (9.9×10¯³ x 1)/3 = 3.3×10¯³ mole of Fe(OH)3.

Finally, we shall convert 3.3×10¯³ mole of Fe(OH)3 to grams. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Fe(OH)3 = 56 + 3(16 + 1) = 56 + 3(17) = 107 g/mol

Mole of Fe(OH)3 = 3.3×10¯³ mole

Mass of Fe(OH)3 =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

3.3×10¯³ = Mass of Fe(OH)3 / 107

Cross multiply

Mass of Fe(OH)3 = 3.3×10¯³ x 107

Mass of Fe(OH)3 = 0.3531 ≈ 0.35 g.

Therefore, 0.35 g of Fe(OH)3 was produced from the reaction.

How many moles of methane are produced when 4.53 mol co2 reacts

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The reaction formula CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O shows the oxidation of 1 mole of CH4 (Methane) will yield 1 mole of CO2 (Carbon Dioxide). Since 1 mole of CH4 will weigh 12g (for the Carbon) + 4g (1g for each Hydrogen) = 16g, then 32g of CH4 will correspond to 32g / 16g/mole = 2 moles. Therefore the oxidation of 2 moles of CH4 will yield 2 moles of CO2.
