Explain why the reaction is classified as an addition reaction

Chemistry

An addition reaction is a reaction type where a molecule combines with another molecule to form one molecule. This is a unique type of reaction since no other product is being formed by this reaction only that one large molecule. An example is the addition of a hydrohalic acid to an alkene to yield a corresponding haloalkane.

Identify the Bronsted-Lowry acid, the Bronsted-Lowry base, the conjugate acid and the conjugate base for each of the following r
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Acids → H₂CO₃ from equilibrium 1 and water, from equilibrium 2.

Bases → Water from equilibrium 1 and ammonia from equilibrium 2.

In 1st equilibrium, H₃O⁺ is the conjugate acid and HCO₃⁻ the conjugate base.

In 2nd equilibrium, NH₄⁺ is the conjugate acid, and OH⁻, the conjugate base.

Explanation:

By the Bronsted-Lowry you know that acids are the one that release protons and base are the ones that catch them.

For the first equilibrium:

H₂CO₃(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + HCO₃⁻(aq)

Carbonic acid is the acid → It donates the proton to water, so the water becomes the base. As H₂CO₃ is the acid,  the bicarbonate is the conjugate base (it can accept the proton from water to become carbonic acid, again) and the hydronium is the conjugate acid (it would release the proton to become water).

For the second equilibrium:

NH₃(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄  NH₄⁺ (aq) + OH⁻(aq)

This is the opposite situation → Water relase the proton to ammonia, that's why water is the acid and NH₃, the base (it accepted to become ammonium). The NH₄⁺ is the conjugate acid (it can release the H⁺ to become ammonia) and the OH⁻ is the conjugate base (It can accept the proton to become water, again).

Look at the following balanced equation. How many atoms of oxygen (O) are present on the reactant side of the equation?
balu736 [363]

There are 6 atoms of oxygen on the reactant side of the following equation: 2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2. Details about atoms can be found below.

<h3>How to find number of atoms?</h3>

The number of atoms of an element in a balanced equation is the amount of that element involved in the reaction.

According to this question, Iron oxide reacts with carbon to produce iron and carbon dioxide as follows:

2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2

In this reaction, 2 × 3 atoms = 6 atoms of oxygen are present on the reactant side of the equation.

The octane number of gasoline is a measure of octane activity. The octane activity is determined by comparing the engine perform
Semmy [17]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The octane number is determined by comparing the characteristics of gasoline to isooctane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) and heptane. The correct option is option A.

Basically, the higher the octane  number, the  greater the resistance of the gasoline to knocking.
