Iodine is a solid at STP (standard room temperature and pressure) as the intermolecular forces between the iodide compound is strongly held by bonds such as electrostatic forces of attraction if its a ionic compound. Therefore STP is so sufficient enough to breakthrough these bonds hence its a solid. However, chlorine’s a gas as its intermolecular bonds are weak, and STP is strong enough to break these bonds of where chlorine is a gas


NOTE: they should really give you a compound so you can identify between covalent and ionic bonds and talk about it in more depth

If you start with 0.30 m mn2 , at what ph will the free mn2 concentration be equal to 4.6 x 10-11 m?
aksik [14]

If you start with 0.30 m Mn₂ , at 12.5 pH, free Mn₂ concentration be equal to 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹ m

Initial molarity of Mn₂ = 0.30 M

Final molarity of Mn₂ = 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹

pH = ?

Ksp [Mn(OH)₂] = 4.6 x 10⁻¹⁴ (standard value)

Write the ionic equation

    Mn(OH)₂   →    Mn⁺² + 2OH⁻

    [Mn⁺²] = 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹

We will calculate the concentration of OH⁻ by using Ksp expression

    Ksp = [Mn⁺²][OH-]²

    [Mn⁺²][OH⁻]² = 4.6 x 10⁻¹⁴

    [OH⁻]² = 4.6 x 10⁻¹⁴ / 4.6 x 10⁻¹¹

    [OH⁻]² = 10⁻³

    [OH⁻] = (10⁻³)¹⁽²

    [OH⁻] = 0.0316 M

Calculate the pOH

    pOH = -log [OH⁻]

    pOH =  -log [0.0316]

    pOH = 1.5

Now calculate pH

   pH = 14 - pOH

   pH = 14 - 1.5

   pH = 12.5

In the presence of sulfuric acid, this alcohol is dehydrated to form an alkene through an E1 mechanism. In the box, draw the maj
Sophie [7]

Answer:

figure is attached

Explanation:

When we treat alcohol with H₂SO₄ we get elimination as the major product.

As we can see in the given reaction that in step 1 the lone pair of electrons of oxygen attached to the alcohol make a bond with the hydrogen of H₂SO₄.

In the 2nd step H₂O gets detached from the parent ring which generated a positive charge on the ring.

In the 3rd step elimination of hydrogen from the carbon next to the carbonium carbon results into formation of an alkene.
