As he began to teach inorganic chemistry, Mendeleev could not find a textbook that met his needs. Since he had already published a textbook on organic chemistry in 1861 that had been awarded the prestigious Demidov Prize, he set out to write another one. The result was Osnovy khimii (1868–71; The Principles of Chemistry), which became a classic, running through many editions and many translations. When Mendeleev began to compose the chapter on the halogen elements (chlorine and its analogs) at the end of the first volume, he compared the properties of this group of elements to those of the group of alkali metals such as sodium. Within these two groups of dissimilar elements, he discovered similarities in the progression of atomic weights, and he wondered if other groups of elements exhibited similar properties. After studying the alkaline earths, Mendeleev established that the order of atomic weights could be used not only to arrange the elements within each group but also to arrange the groups themselves. Thus, in his effort to make sense of the extensive knowledge that already existed of the chemical and physical properties of the chemical elements and their compounds, Mendeleev discovered the periodic law.
Answer
MnO₄ + 2H⁺ +3NO₂⁻ →3NO₃⁻ + Mn²⁺ +H₂O
Explanation
This is a redox reaction (oxidation-reduction reaction) which involves the transfer of electrons between two species. i.e
Mn + 6e⁻→Mn²⁺ (reduction)
3N³⁺- 6e⁻→3Mn⁵⁺(oxidation)
Answer:
0.30 M
Explanation:
Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:
![[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_t%5D%3D%5BA_0%5De%5E%7B-kt%7D)
Where,
![[A_t]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_t%5D)
is the concentration at time t = ?
![[A_0]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_0%5D)
is the initial concentration = 1.36 M
k is the rate constant = 0.208 s⁻¹
t = 7.30 seconds
So,
![[A_t]=1.36\times e^{-0.208\times 7.30}\ M=0.30\ M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_t%5D%3D1.36%5Ctimes%20e%5E%7B-0.208%5Ctimes%207.30%7D%5C%20M%3D0.30%5C%20M)
Answer:
Empirical formula of C₈H₈ = CH
Explanation:
Data Given:
Molecular Formula = C₈H₈
Empirical Formula = ?
Solution
Empirical Formula:
Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.
So,
tha ration of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule
C₈H₈ Consist of Carbon (C), and Hydrogen (H)
Now
Look at the ratio of these two atoms in the compound
C : H
8 : 8
Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio
C : H
8/8 : 8/8
1 : 1
So for the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen 1 : 1
So the empirical formula will be
Empirical formula of C₈H₈ = CH
I will have to go with carbon monoxide
