The carbon atoms in graphite and the carbon atoms in Diamond have different

It's the actual structure of diamond which made the two different. Diamonds have a tetrahedral structure, and as for graphite, it's not structured in that way. The structures of the two is also the reason why diamond is harder than graphite.

Hydrocyanic acid, HCN, is a weak acid. (a) Write the chemical equation for the dissociation of HCN in water. (b) Identify the Br
12345 [234]

Answer: a) HCN(aq.)+H_2O\rightleftharoons H_3O^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq.)

b) HCN : acid CN^- :conjugate base.

And, H_2O : base H_3O^+: conjugate acid.

c) HCN(aq.)+NaOH(aq)\rightleftharoons NaCN(aq.)+H_2O(l)

d) NaCN(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq)

e) NaCN(aq)+HCl(aq)\rightarrow NaCl(aq.)+HCN(aq)

Explanation:

a) Weak acid is defined as the acid which does not completely dissociates when dissolved in water. They have high pH. These releases H^+ ions in their aqueous states.

The equation for the dissociation of HCN acid is given by:

HCN(aq.)+H_2O\rightleftharoons H_3O^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq.)

b) According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

For the given chemical equation:

HCN is loosing a proton, thus it is considered as an acid and after losing a proton, it forms CN^- which is a conjugate base.

And, H_2O is gaining a proton, thus it is considered as a base and after gaining a proton, it forms H_3O^+ which is a conjugate acid.

c) Neutralization reaction is a reaction in which an acid reacts with base to produce salt and water.

HCN(aq.)+NaOH(aq)\rightarrow NaCN(aq.)+H_2O(l)

d) The chemical equation for dissociation of NaCN in water.

NaCN(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq)

e) The chemical equation for the reaction of NaCN and HCI

NaCN(aq)+HCl(aq)\rightarrow NaCl(aq.)+HCN(aq)

 Consider a bathtub filled with water, with a plug in the drain. How long would this be considered a closed system?
Monica [59]
For a closed system, you need two things:
1) a conservation of mass within the boundaries of the system
2) the ability to freely exchange energy to & from the "closed" system with a surrounding external system


So, the answer is <u><em>never</em></u>, since your defining the "system" as the water within the bathtub, and an open bathtub is exposed to evaporation, which is not conserving mass within the defined "system".

A reaction is non-spontaneous at any temperature when
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A reaction is non-spontaneous at any temperature when the Gibbs free energy > 0.

Explanation:

There is a state function, that determines if a reaction is sponaneous or non spontaneous:

ΔG = Gibbs free energy

A reaction is non spontaneous when it does require energy to produce that reaction. It will be spontaneous, when the reaction does not require energy to be occured.

The formula is: ΔG = ΔH - T.ΔS

ΔH → Enthalpy → Energy gained or realeased as heat.

ΔH < 0 → <em>Exothermic reaction. Spontaneity is favored </em>

T  → Temperature

ΔS → Entropy →  Degree of disorder of a system.

When the system has a considered disorder ΔS > 0, disorder increases.

When the system is more ordered, ΔS < 0, disorder decreases.

The reaction will be non spontaneous if, the enthalpy is positive (endothermic reaction) and the ΔS < 0 (disorder decreases). It will not occur if we do not give energy.

ΔG < 0 → Spontaneous reaction

ΔG > 0 → Non spontaneous reaction

ΔG = 0 → System in equilibrium
