valentina_108 [34]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:It is not the same

Explanation: the normal sodium atom has an atomic number of 11 while Chlorine has an atomic number of 17. For Nacl; the sodium has lose an electron because it want to attain it octet configuration while chlorine accept the electron release to make it attain its octet configuration. At this point the elements are electrically stable.

Therefore, sodium become 10 and chlorine become 18

Consider the balanced chemical equation that follows. You are asked to determine how many moles of water you can produce from 4.
matrenka [14]

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of mass, mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of products in a chemical equation. As mass can neither be created nor it can be destroyed but it can be transformed from one form to another.

As it is given that hydrogen and in excess oxygen is reacting that leads to the formation of water. Hence, the chemical reaction equation will be as follows.

           2H_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2H_{2}O(l)

Since, it is given that 4 mol of hydrogen is reacting with excess of oxygen and gives 2 moles of water.

Hence, number of moles of water produced is calculated as follows.

              4 mol of H_{2} \times \frac{2 mol of H_{2}O}{2 mol of H_{2}}

                  = 4 moles of H_{2}O

Thus, we can conclude that 4 moles of water you can produce from 4.0 mol of hydrogen and excess oxygen.

Alkanes are hydrocarbons containing only single bonds. Acyclic alkanes have carbon atoms arranged in chains, whereas cycloalkane
sashaice [31]

Answer:

156 Hydrogen atoms

Explanation:

<u>Any acyclic alkane has a molecular formula that can be expressed as</u>:

CₙH₂ₙ₊₂

Where <em>n</em> is any integer and the number of carbon atoms. For example, Propane has 3 carbon atoms, this means it would have [2*3+2] 8 hydrogen atoms, resulting with a formula of C₃H₈.

An acyclic alkane with 77 carbon atoms would thus have:

2*77 + 2 = 156 hydrogen atoms

What do we do to increase the surface area of solid reactants to high rate of reaction?​
motikmotik
The rate of a chemical reaction can be raised by increasing the surface area of a solid reactant. This is done by cutting the substance into small pieces, or by grinding it into a powder.

The rate constant for a certain reaction is k = 5.40×10−3 s−1 . If the initial reactant concentration was 0.100 M, what will the
IceJOKER [234]

Answer : The concentration after 17.0 minutes will be, 4.05\times 10^{-4}M

Explanation :

The expression for first order reaction is:

[C_t]=[C_o]e^{-kt}

where,

[C_t] = concentration at time 't'  (final) = ?

[C_o] = concentration at time '0' (initial) = 0.100 M

k = rate constant = 5.40\times 10^{-3}s^{-1}

t = time = 17.0 min = 1020 s (1 min = 60 s)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

[C_t]=(0.100)\times e^{-(5.40\times 10^{-3})\times (1020)}

[C_t]=4.05\times 10^{-4}M

Thus, the concentration after 17.0 minutes will be, 4.05\times 10^{-4}M
