Justify why you can or cannot make a compound out of 6 hydrogen atoms and 2.5 carbon atoms.

Answer:

Stoichiometric compounds are composed of whole number ratios of constituent atoms.

Explanation:

In accordance with Dalton's law, when atoms combine to form compounds, they do so in simple whole number ratios.

Hydrocarbons compounds are compounds of hydrogen and carbon. The hydrogen and carbon usually combine in simple whole number ratios. The ratio of hydrogen atoms to carbon atoms in organic compounds is never fractional.

Combination of 6 hydrogen atoms and 2.5 carbon atoms do not represent simple whole number ratio of combination of constituent atoms hence it is not possible to make such a compound. There can never be a hydrocarbon containing the said ratio of hydrogen to carbon atoms.

The physical world around us behaves as it does partly because it’s made of a huge number of tiny molecules, each behaving rando
eduard
1. Weird things like the one described above do not happen on a ramdom basis becuause molecules usually move within any enclosure in a ramdom manner. Thus, it is not possible for some types of particles to aggregate in one point while other types of molecule aggreagate in another point. Based on the kinetic energy that is available for each particle, each particle will move random
through the available space, colliding with one another and with the wall of container.

2. It will be a difficult thing to live in a Maxwell' demon world because, things will happen unpredictably and one will never know what to expect next because anything can happen at anytime. For instance, if one is drinking a glass of water, some of the particles of the water may just decide to aggregate to one part of the cup and start boiling. So, for someone who is taking a glass of water, the water may start boiling right inside his mouth when he is drinking, that will be a bad experience. When one is driving a car, the petrol particles may just decide to freeze up when one is busy speeding on the highway; that can cause a very serious accident. Thus, a world where the Maxwell law operates will be a chaotic world.

Use the information provided to determine ΔH°rxn for the following reaction: ΔH°f (kJ/mol) 3 Fe2O3(s) + CO(g) → 2 Fe3O4(s) + CO2
zepelin [54]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = -47 kJ

Explanation:

Using Hess´s law for the reaction:

3 Fe2O3(s) + CO(g) → 2 Fe3O4(s) + CO2(g) ,

the ΔH°rxn will be given by the expression:

ΔH°rxn kJ  =   2ΔHºf(Fe3O4)  + ΔHºf(CO2)   - ( 3ΔHºf(Fe2O3) + ΔHºf(CO) )

=  2(-1118) + (-394) - ( 3( -824 ) + ( -111 ) )

= - 47 kJ

Write the ionization equation for hypochlorous acid, HClO, dissolved in water.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

HClO (l)  →  H⁺ (aq)    +       ClO⁻ (aq)

                 proton   and    hypochlorite.

Explanation:

HClO (Hypochlorous acid)

This is a weak acid that can be dissociated as this:

HClO (l)  →  H⁺ (aq)    +       ClO⁻ (aq)

                 proton   and    hypochlorite.

It is a weak acid, so it can adopt a Ka for its equilibrium

HClO +  H₂O  ⇄   H₃O⁺   +  ClO⁻          Ka

Molar mass = 52.46 g/m
