Answer:

Acetone.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can distinguish between polar solvent and nonpolar solvent by the nature of the bonds present in the compound. Thus, since the bonds C-Cl, C-C, C-H and C-O are nonpolar, which are contained in the toluene, carbon tetrachloride, diethyl ether and hexane, they are discarded as polar.

Nevertheless, since the carbonyl group contained in the acetone is a polar because of the formed positive and negative charges, it is actually the polar solvent, acting as an exception. This is substantiated by the fact the acetone is soluble in water whereas the other substances not,

Regards.

A student prepares a 1.8 M aqueous solution of 4-chlorobutanoic acid (C2H CICO,H. Calculate the fraction of 4-chlorobutanoic aci

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Percentage dissociated = 0.41%

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the reaction is:

$C_3H_6ClCO_2H_{(aq)} \to C_3H_6ClCO_2^-_{(aq)}+ H^+_{(aq)}$

The ICE table is then shown as:

$C_3H_6ClCO_2H_{(aq)} \ \ \ \ \to \ \ \ \ C_3H_6ClCO_2^-_{(aq)} \ \ + \ \ \ \ H^+_{(aq)}$

Initial (M) 1.8 0 0

Change (M) - x + x + x

Equilibrium (M) (1.8 -x) x x

$K_a = \frac{[C_3H_6ClCO^-_2][H^+]}{[C_3H_6ClCO_2H]}$

where ;

$K_a = 3.02*10^{-5}$

$3.02*10^{-5} = \frac{(x)(x)}{(1.8-x)}$

Since the value for $K_a$ is infinitesimally small; then 1.8 - x ≅ 1.8

Then;

$3.02*10^{-5} *(1.8) = {(x)(x)}$

$5.436*10^{-5}= {(x^2)$

$x = \sqrt{5.436*10^{-5}}$

$x = 0.0073729 \\ \\ x = 7.3729*10^{-3} \ M$

Dissociated form of 4-chlorobutanoic acid = $C_3H_6ClCO_2^- = x= 7.3729*10^{-3} \ M$

Percentage dissociated = $\frac{C_3H_6ClCO^-_2}{C_3H_6ClCO_2H} *100$

Percentage dissociated = $\frac{7.3729*10^{-3}}{1.8 }*100$

Percentage dissociated = 0.4096

Percentage dissociated = 0.41% (to two significant digits)

What are the basics of chemistry

Novay_Z [31]

In studying chemistry, one should learn how to read the periodic table and periodic trends in the table.. Of course, you should also know the abbreviations of each element in it so that you can identify what element is in chemical structures. Memorizing and knowing it by heart is the best way. You should also study what we call chemical nomenclature which is naming combinations of elements. Elements when combined may form ionic compounds, bonds or acids. Knowing what element reacts with another will also be necessary that's why the concept of chemical reactions must be further studied.

What is the specific heat of a substance if 25 grams rises in temperature from 10 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees with the additio

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

0.75 cal/g°c

Explanation:

for specific heat we have formula:

Amount of heat absorbed or released = mass x specific heat of a substance x change in temperature.

ΔQ=m x c x ΔT

where c= specific heat

m= mass of a substance

ΔT = total temperature

ΔQ = Amount of heat

so for specific heat,

c= ΔQ/mxΔT

c= 280/25x (25-10)

c= 280/375

c= 0.75 cal/g°c
