Base your answer on the information below and your knowledge of chemistry. Methanol can be manufactured by a reaction that is re

versible. In the reaction, carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas react using a catalyst. The equation below represents this system at equilibrium. CO(g) 2H2(g) CH3OH(g) energy. Explain, in terms of collision theory, why increasing the concentration of H2(g) in this system will increase the concentration of CH3OH(g).

Explanation:

For the given reaction:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

CO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_3OH(g)

Rate=k[CO]^x[H_2]^y

where x and y are order wrt to CO and H_2

According to collision theory , the molecules must collide for a reaction to take place. According to collision theory , the rate of a reaction is proportional to rate of collision of reactants.

Thus with an increase in concentration of reactants , the rate of reaction also increases. This is because if the concentration of reactants increases , the chances of collision between molecules also increases and thus more products wil be formed which in turn increases the rate of reaction.

Which contains the greatest mass of oxygen: 0.75 moles of ethanol ( C2H5OH ), 0.60 mole of formic acid ( HCO2H ), or 1.0 mole of
Luda [366]

Answer:

In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O

Explanation:

Let's make some rules of three, to solve this problem:

1 mol of ethanol has 2 moles of C, 6 moles of H, and 1 mol of oxygen

Therefore, 0.75 moles of ethanol must have 0.75 mol of oyxgen

Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.75 mol . 16 g/ 1 mol = 12 g

1 mol of formic acid has 2 moles of H, 1 mol of C and 2 mol of oxygen

0.60 moles of formic acid must have  (0.6 .2) / 1 = 1.2 mol of O

If we convert the amount to mass → 1.2 mol . 16 g/ 1mol = 19.2 g

1 mol of water has 1 mol of oyxgen

Therefore, we have 1 mol of oxygen with a mass of 16 g.

In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O

Hydrogen bonding is most often seen _____. see concept 2.3 (page 38) view available hint(s) hydrogen bonding is most often seen
Evgesh-ka [11]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

When hydrogen is covalently bonded to an electronegative atom

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Hydrogen bonding is a special type of dipole-dipole attraction between molecules. It results from the attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F atom.
  • Highly electronegative atoms attract shared electrons more strongly than hydrogen does, resulting in a slight positive charge on the hydrogen atom. The slightly positive hydrogen atom is then attracted to another electronegative atom, forming a hydrogen bond.

How many pints of a 30% sugar solution must be added to a 5 pint of a 5% sugar solution to obtain a 20% sugar solution?
ser-zykov [4K]

You must add 7.5 pt of the 30 % sugar to the 5 % sugar to get a 20 % solution.

You can use a modified dilution formula to calculate the volume of 30 % sugar.

<em>V</em>_1×<em>C</em>_1 + <em>V</em>_2×<em>C</em>_2 = <em>V</em>_3×<em>C</em>_3

Let the volume of 30 % sugar = <em>x</em> pt. Then the volume of the final 20 % sugar = (5 + <em>x</em> ) pt

(<em>x</em> pt×30 % sugar) + (5 pt×5 % sugar) = (<em>x</em> + 5) pt × 20 % sugar

30<em>x</em> + 25 = 20x + 100

10<em>x</em> = 75

<em>x</em> = 75/10 = 7.5
