Draw the products of the acid-base reaction between stearic acid and OH-

Chemistry
1 answer:
jok3333 [9.3K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Products are stearate anion and water.

Explanation:

Stearic acid is a 18-carbon chain molecule containing -COOH group. IUPAC name of stearic acid is octadecanoic acid.

Molecular formula of stearic acid is C_{17}H_{35}CO_{2}H.

When OH^{-} is added into stearic acid, OH^{-} removes a proton (H^{+}) from acidic -COOH group and forms stearate anion and water as products.

The balanced acid-base reaction is given as:

                  C_{17}H_{35}CO_{2}H+OH^{-}\rightleftharpoons C_{17}H_{35}CO_{2}^{-}+H_{2}O

Structure of products are given below.

Why do real gases not behave exactly like ideal gases?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Real gas particles have significant volume

Real gas particles have more complex interactions than ideal gas particles.

Explanation:

An ideal gas is an imaginary concept and a gas behaves almost ideally at certain pressure and temperature conditions.

The gas in real deviates from the ideal behavior as some of the assumptions made for ideal gases are not true in case of real gases.

Real gas particles have significant volume as compared to vessel unlike ideal gases.

There are interactions present in between real gas molecules at high pressure conditions.

The stability of an isotope is based on its
Ulleksa [173]

Answer is (3) - ratio of neutrons to protons.


Isotopes are the atoms which have same atomic number but have different number of neutrons of same element.


Atomic nucleus can be stable or unstable. The stability of isotopes is based on neutron/ proton ratio. Unstable nucleus tries to become stable by emitting radiations.

How many moles of hydrogen are in 5.2 moles of C7H18
maksim [4K]
In one mole of C7H18 there are 18 moles of H (the number folowing the H)*
>> the ratio is 1:18

In 5.2 moles of C7H18 there are x moles of H
>> the ratio is 5.2:x

Cross multiply the two ratios
1x = 18×5.2
x = 93.6 moles of H

>> In 5.2 moles of C7H18 there are 93.6 moles of H




* This isnt a rule that you can always use.
However to find the mole of a certain element in a certain molucle all you have to do is count how many moles of the element are present in the molecule.
>> example1 >> H2O ;
2 H and 1 O

>> example2 >> CH3COOH ; [you add up all the moles of the same element]
(1+1) 2 C , (3+1) 4 H and (1+1) 2 O

>> example3 >> Mg(OH)2 ; [you multiply whetever is in parenthesis by the number after it 2] 1 Mg , (1×2) 2 O and (1×2) 2 H
