Hydrocyanic acid hcn is a weak acid write a net ionic equation with sodium hydroxide

1 answer:

8 0

Answer : The equation for the reaction of hydrocyanic acid with sodium hydroxide is as follows:
H−C≡N(aq.)+NaOH(aq.)→ Na−C≡N(aq) + $H _{2} O$ (aq)

This is similar to double displacement reaction and the net ionic form of the equation can be given by :
H−C≡N (aq) + $^{-}OH$ (aq)→ $^{-}C$ ≡N(aq)+ $H _{2} O$ (aq)

Which type of energy is stored in the nucleus of an atom?

Lapatulllka [165]

Nuclear energy is energy in the nucleus (core) of an atom. Atoms are tiny particles that make up every object in the universe. There is enormous energy in the bonds that hold atoms together. Nuclear energy can be used to make electricity.

Draw the Lewis structure for methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6) in the box below. Then predict which would have the higher boiling

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Ethane would have a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

In this case, for the lewis structures, we have to keep in mind that all atoms must have 8 electrons (except hydrogen). Additionally, each carbon would have 4 valence electrons, with this in mind, for methane we have to put the hydrogens around the carbon, and with this structure, we will have 8 electrons for the carbon. In ethane, we will have a bond between the carbons, therefore we have to put three hydrogens around each carbon to obtain 8 electrons for each carbon.

Now, the main difference between methane and ethane is an additional carbon. In ethane, we have an additional carbon, therefore due to this additional carbon, we will have more area of interaction for ethane. If we have more area of interaction we have to give more energy to the molecule to convert from liquid to gas, so, the ethane will have a higher boiling point.

I hope it helps!
