<span>esearchers in many countries were seeking innovative and cost-effective ways to synthesize steroids, including cortisone and the sex hormones. German chemists discovered that the steroid stigmasterol, which Julian had obtained as a by-product of the physostigmine synthesis but was also obtainable from soybeans, could be used in the synthesis of certain sex hormones, including progesterone</span>

Classify each of the following reactants and products as an acid or base according to the Bronsted theory: H3PO4 + C6H5O- &lt;=&
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

H₃PO₄ is an acid because donates the proton to fenolate.

Fenolate is the base because accepts the proton from the acid.

Explanation:

Bronsted theory mentioned that acid is the one that donates a proton to another compound and base is the one that receives it.

H₃PO₄   +   C₆H₅O⁻    ⇄      H₂PO₄⁻      +       C₆H₅OH

acid              base              conj. base            conj. acid

H₃PO₄ is an acid because donates the proton to fenolate.

Fenolate is the base because accepts the proton from the acid.

If we follow the dissociation, the diacid phosphate can donate two more protons, it is still a Bronsted acid, but it can act as an acid or a base. This is called amphoteric.

Why do you think large differences in temperature between the wet bulb and dry bulb thermometers are possible only at higher tem
olganol [36]

Answer:

This is the temperature indicated by a moistened thermometer bulb exposed to the air flow. The evaporation is reduced when the air contains more water vapor. The wet bulb temperature is always lower than the dry bulb temperature but will be identical with 100% relative humidity.

Assuming that the solubility of radon in water with 1 atm pressure of the gas over the water at 30 ∘C is 7.27×10−3M, what is the
Daniel [21]

Answer:

K = 137.55 atm/M.

Explanation:

  • The relationship between gas pressure and the  concentration of dissolved gas is given by  Henry’s law:

<em>P = (K)(C)</em>

where P is the partial pressure of the gaseous  solute above the solution (P = 1.0 atm).

k is a constant (Henry’s constant).

C is the concentration of the dissolved gas (C = 7.27 x 10⁻³ M).

∴ K = P/C = (1.0 atm)/(7.27 x 10⁻³ M) = 137.55 atm/M.
