5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option C, that is, has an irritating odor and is colorless.

Explanation:

Sulfur dioxide refers to a gas. It has a nasty, sharp smell and is invisible. It associates with other components to produce harmful compounds like sulfurous acid, sulfuric acid, and sulfate particles. It is the chemical compound with the formula SO. At standard temperature, it is a toxic gas with an irritating and pungent smell. The gas is released naturally by the volcanic activity.

Propenoic acid is an unsaturated carboxylic acid. Describe how you could show

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Tests for unsaturation involves addition across the multiple bonds in the unsaturated compound.

Explanation:

In organic chemistry, we define an unsaturated compound as any compound that contains a double or triple bond. These multiple bonds are also known as pi bonds.

There are two major tests for unsaturation which shall both be discussed here.

The first test for unsaturation is by the use of bromine water. The unknown sample is passed through a solution of bromine water which normally appears reddish brown. The bromine water becomes decolorized due to addition of bromine across the multiple bond. This is a standard test for unsaturation.

Secondly, unsaturated compounds decoulourize a solution of potassium permanganate when passed through it. This alone can not be used as a distinctive test for unsaturation.

Propenoic acid will give a positive test to the both reagents showing that it contains multiple bonds, in this particular instance, a double bond.

A 0.9440 g sample of a mixture of NaCl and KCl is dissolved in water, and the solution is then treated with an excess of AgNO3 t

Gnom [1K]

Answer : The percent by mass of NaCl and KCl are, 18.11 % and 81.88 % respectively.

Explanation :

As we know that when a mixture of NaCl and KCl react with excess $AgNO_3$ then the silver ion react with the chloride ion in both NaCl and KCl to form silver chloride.

Let the mass of NaCl be, 'x' grams and the mass of KCl will be, (0.9440 - x) grams.

The molar mass of NaCl and KCl are, 58.5 and 74.5 g/mole respectively.

First we have to calculate the moles of NaCl and KCl.

$\text{Moles of }NaCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaCl}{\text{Molar mass of }NaCl}=\frac{xg}{58.5g/mole}=\frac{x}{58.5}moles$

$\text{Moles of }KCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }KCl}{\text{Molar mass of }KCl}=\frac{(0.9440-x)g}{74.5g/mole}=\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

As, each mole of NaCl and KCl gives one mole of chloride ions.

So, moles of chloride ions in NaCl = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles$

Moles of chloride ions in KCl = $\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

The total moles of chloride ions = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of AgCl.

As we know that, this amount of chloride ion is same as the amount chloride ion present in the AgCl precipitate. That means,

Moles of AgCl = Moles of chloride ion = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of AgCl.

The molar mass of AgCl = 143.32 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }AgCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }AgCl}{\text{Molar mass of }AgCl}=\frac{1.903g}{143.32g/mole}=0.0133moles$

Now we have to determine the value of 'x'.

Moles of AgCl = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

0.0133 mole = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

By solving the term, we get the value of 'x'.

$x=0.171g$

The mass of NaCl = x = 0.171 g

The mass of KCl = (0.9440 - x) = 0.9440 - 0.171 = 0.773 g

Now we have to calculate the mass percent of NaCl and KCl.

$\text{Mass percent of }NaCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaCl}{\text{Total mass of mixture}}\times 100=\frac{0.171g}{0.9440g}\times 100=18.11\%$

$\text{Mass percent of }KCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }KCl}{\text{Total mass of mixture}}\times 100=\frac{0.773g}{0.9440g}\times 100=81.88\%$

Therefore, the percent by mass of NaCl and KCl are, 18.11 % and 81.88 % respectively.

The activation energy for the isomerization ol cyclopropane to propene is 274 kJ/mol. By what factor does the rate of this react

Bond [772]

Answer:

The rate of the reaction increased by a factor of 1012.32

Explanation:

Applying Arrhenius equation

ln(k₂/k₁) = Ea/R(1/T₁ - 1/T₂)

where;

k₂/k₁ is the ratio of the rates which is the factor

Ea is the activation energy = 274 kJ/mol.

T₁ is the initial temperature = 231⁰C = 504 k

T₂ is the final temperature = 293⁰C = 566 k

R is gas constant = 8.314 J/Kmol

Substituting this values into the equation above;

ln(k₂/k₁) = 274000/8.314(1/504 - 1/566)

ln(k₂/k₁) = 32956.4589 (0.00198-0.00177)

ln(k₂/k₁) = 6.92

k₂/k₁ = exp(6.92)

k₂/k₁ = 1012.32

The rate of the reaction increased by 1012.32
