Martije has made a slight error in naming a compound monocarbon tetrabromide. What compound is she most likely naming, and what

Answer: CBr4 (carbon tetrabromide)

Explanation:

The slight error has been to use the prefix mono to name monocarbon.

The compound she is most likely naming is:

 CBr_4.

As you see, the chemical formula has 1 atom of C, which is likely why she named it mono, and 4 atoms of Br.

The right name is carbon monobromide, i.e. you have to supress the prefix mono, as per IUPAC rules.

The value of the solubility product constant for Ag2CO3 is 8.5 × 10‒12 and that of Ag2CrO4 is 1.1 × 10‒12. From this data, what
Lena [83]

Answer:

B) 7.7

Explanation:

For the reaction    Ag2CO3(s) + CrO42‒(aq) → Ag2CrO4(s) + CO32‒(aq)

Kc = (CO₃²⁻) / (CrO₄²⁻)

and the Ksp given are

Ag₂CO₃    ⇒  2 Ag⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)    Ksp₁ = (Ag⁺)²(CO₃²⁻)  

Ag₂CrO₄   ⇒  2 Ag⁺(aq)+ CrO₄²⁻(aq)   Ksp₂ = (Ag⁺)²(CrO₄²⁻)

Where (...) indicate concentrations M

Notice if we divide the expressions for Ksp we get:

Ksp₁/Ksp₂ = (CO₃²⁻)  / (CrO₄²⁻) = 8.5 x 10⁻¹² / 1.1 x 10⁻¹² = 7.7

which is the desired answer.

How is burning magnesium different than burning methane
olya-2409 [2.1K]

You can stop the burning of methane with water or carbon dioxide extinguishers but problems arise when you try to use this to stop the burning of the magnesium.

Explanation:

To burn magnesium (Mg) and methane (CH₄) you need to react them with oxygen:

2 Mg (s) + O₂ (g) → 2 MgO + heat

CH₄ (g) + 2  O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g) + heat

However at that temperatures magnesium (Mg) is able to react with water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂).

Mg (s) + 2 H₂O (l) → Mg(OH)₂ (s) + H₂ (g)

2 Mg (s) + CO₂ (g) → 2 MgO (s) + C (s)

So the safe option to stop the burning of the magnesium is to limit the oxygen in the air.

we have used the following notations:

(s) - solid

(g) - gas

(l) - liquid

PLZ ANSWER QUICKLY! The electronegativity values of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen are compared in the table. Comparison of Elec
andriy [413]

Answer:

c. CH4 < NH3 because the NH bond is more polar than the CH bond.

Explanation:

Actually, the electronegativity difference between carbon and hydrogen is just about 0.4. This meager difference in electronegativity corresponds to a nonpolar bond between the two atoms.

However, the electronegativity difference between nitrogen and hydrogen is about 0.9. This larger electronegativity difference corresponds to the existence of a polar covalent bond between the two atoms.

Hence the N-H bond is significantly polar unlike the C-H bond. This implies that CH4 molecules are only held together by weak dispersion forces while NH3 molecules are held together by stronger dipole-dipole interactions and hydrogen bonds.

The effect of a catalyst on an equilibrium is to ________. Select one: a. increase the rate of the forward reaction only b. slow
Georgia [21]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which alters the rate of a chemical reaction. We check for the correctness of each of the options as follows:

A. Is wrong.

A catalyst can increase the rate of the forward and backward reaction

B. Is wrong

A catalyst does not slow the reverse reaction only. This particular case is the case of a negative catalyst

C is wrong

A catalyst has no effect on the equilibrium nor the equilibrium constant

D is wrong

Catalyst has no effect on equilibrium value

E is correct

Although Catalysts has no effect on equilibrium or its constant value, it can increase the the rate at which equilibrium is achieved by speeding up the reaction through bringing down the activation energy
