Among formic acid (HCOOH ) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), formic acid is the weak acid. Acidic strength of any acid is the tendency of that acid to loose proton. Among these two acids formic acid has a pKa value of 3.74 greater than that of sulfuric acid i.e. -10. Remember! Greater the pKa value of acid weaker is that acid and vice versa. Below I have drawn the Ionization of both acids to corresponding conjugate bases and protons. The structures below with charges are drawn in order to explain the reason for strength. As it is seen in charged structure of formic acid, there is one positive charge on carbon next to oxygen carrying proton. The electron density is shifted toward carbon as it is electron deficient and demands more electron hence, attracting electron density from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond more polar. While, in case of sulfuric acid it is depicted that Sulfur attached to oxygen containing proton has 2+ charge, means more electron deficient as compared to carbon of formic acid, hence, more electron demanding and strongly attracting electrons from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond very polar and highly ionizable.

Heating a solution of alcohol and water, then collecting the alcohol vapors and condensing them into a liquid with higher alcoho
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Distillation.

Explanation:

If we are heating a mixture of two miscible liquids and collecting the vapors it means we are separating the two mixtures from each other based on their boiling point differences.

This technique of separation of two liquids based on the difference in boiling point is known as Distillation.

Alcohol will evaporate easily as compared to water as water has stronger influence of hydrogen bond making the inter-molecular forces stronger.

2. Which of the following is true about the total number of reactants and the total number of
Soloha48 [4]

9 moles of reactants chemically change into 11 moles of product.

Explanation:

In the reaction above, 9 moles of reactants chemically change into 11 mole of products. The coefficients in a reaction is the number of moles of the reacting atoms .

  • For example 8O₂ depicts 8 moles of two oxygen atoms.
  • The number of moles  is a unit for quantifying particles.
  • You can liken it to a dozen, gross or a score.
  • Since a mole of a substance contains avogadro number of particles. We can relate the number of moles to other parameters.
