To solve this problem, we must assume ideal gas behaviour so that we can use Graham’s law:

vA / vB = sqrt (MW_B / MW_A)

where,

<span>vA = speed of diffusion of A  (HBR)</span>

vB = speed of diffusion of B (unknown)

MW_B = molecular weight of B (unkown)

MW_A = molar weight of HBr = 80.91 amu

 

We know from the given that:

vA / vB = 1 / 1.49

 

So,

1/1.49 = sqrt (MW_B / 80.91)

MW_B = 36.44 g/mol

 

Since this unknown is also hydrogen halide, therefore this must be in the form of HX.

HX = 36.44 g/mol , therefore:

x = 35.44 g/mol

 

From the Periodic Table, Chlorine (Cl) has a molar mass of 35.44 g/mol. Therefore the hydrogen halide is:

HCl

In an experiment, hydrochloric acid reacted with different volumes of sodium thiosulfate in water. A yellow precipitate was form
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

I think that the trend that would be seen in the time column of the data table would be that the number of seconds would increase. I know this because for each flask, the concentration of sodium thiosulfate decreases, since less of it is being mixed with more water. Also, when the concentration of a substance decreases, then the reaction rate also decreases, as there will be fewer collisions with sulfuric acid if there are fewer moles of sodium thiosulfate. When there are fewer collisions in a reaction, the reaction itself will take longer, and so when the sodium thiosulfate is diluted, the reaction takes more time.

Explanation:

<em>I verify this is correct. </em>

When chlorobenzene reacts with Mg in ether followed by CO2 and neutralization with dilute HCl, __________ will be formed.
allsm [11]

Answer:

c. benzoic acid

Explanation:

The given reaction is an example of a Grignard reaction:

When chlorobenzene (C₆H₅Cl) reacts with Mg in ether, an intermediate is formed (C₆H₅MgCl).

Said intermediate then reacts with CO₂ producing a benzoic acid salt (C₆H₅CO₂X), this salt is then neutralized with dilute HCl producing benzoic acid (C₆H₅CO₂H).
