Carbon can form a wide variety of organic compounds because:

Each carbon atom covalently bonds with toms of carbon, hydrogen oxygen, and nitrogen

A carbon atom can have 4 single valence electrons around it. This allows it to form covalent bonds with many different atoms.

When H2(g) reacts with Cl2(g) to form HCl(g) , 185 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of H2(g) that reacts. Write a balanced
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2HCl(g) + 185kJ

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, enthalpy of reaction ΔH is a thermodynamic constant that gives information if the reaction is exothermic (Produce heat if reacts) or endothermic (Consume heat if reacts).

In the reaction:

H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2HCl(g) ΔH = -185kJ

As ΔH <0, the reaction is exothermic, that means, <em>produce heat</em>, writing a balanced thermochemical equation:

<em>H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2HCl(g) + 185kJ</em>

<em></em>

The enthalpy is as a product beacause an exothermic reaction produces heat.

I hope it helps!

An average bushel of apples has a mass of 10 kg and contains 5 dozen apples.
Alina [70]

Answer:

Average mass of 6 apple  = 1 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Average mass of 5 dozen apple = 10 kg

Find:

Average mass of 6 apple

Computation:

Average mass of 6 apple  = [Average mass of 1 apple] x [6 apple]

Average mass of 6 apple  = [10/(12 x 5)] x [6]

Average mass of 6 apple  = 1 kg

In Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry, narrow atomic lines are desirable. However, line broadening arises from: (a) Jablonski e
LenKa [72]

Answer: b) Doppler Effect

Explanation:

Line broadening in AAS, arises due to some effects, which can occur due to a number of factors. The line width broadening effects include: Doppler, Lorentz, Self absorption, and quenching effects.

Doppler effect arises because along the line of observation, atoms will have different components of velocity.
