How can plants protect themselves? They produce salicylic acid. They become acidic. They release toxins. All of the above

If the ligand has a negative charge at a particular location, what would happen if you tried to put electrons from the metal nea

slega [8]

Answer:

The two would end up repelling each other very strongly and more energy would ultimately be required to keep the metal-ligand system in place

Explanation:

A complex is made up a central metal atom or ion and ligands. Ligands are lewis bases and they possess lone pairs of electrons. A complex is formed when electrons are donated from ligand species to metals.

However, if the ligand has a negative charge at a particular location and we try to put electrons from the metal near the electrons from the ligand, the two would end up repelling each other very strongly and more energy would ultimately be required to keep the metal-ligand system in place.

Substitute natural gas (SNG) is a gaseous mixture containing CH4(g) that can be used as a fuel. One reaction for the production

Lynna [10]

Answer:

ΔH° of the reaction is -747.54kJ

Explanation:

Based on gas law, it is possible to find the ΔH of a reaction using ΔH of half reactions.

Using the reactions:

(1) C(graphite) + 1/2O₂(g) → CO(g) ΔH° = -110.5 kJ

(2) CO(g) + 1/2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH° = -283.0 kJ

(3) H₂(g) + 1/2O₂(g) → H₂O(l) ΔH° = -285.8 kJ

(4) C(graphite) + 2H₂(g) → CH₄(g) ΔH° = -74.81 kJ

(5) CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) ΔH° = -890.3 kJ

The sum of 4×(4) + (5) gives:

4C(graphite) + 8H₂(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) + 3CH₄(g)

ΔH° = -74.81 kJ ×4 - 890.3 kJ = -1189.54kJ

Now, this reaction - 4×(1) gives:

4CO(g) + 8H₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) + 3CH₄(g)

ΔH° = -1189.54kJ - 4×-110.5 = -747.54kJ

Thus ΔH° of the reaction is -747.54kJ

Calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water to form acetylene (C2H2) and Ca(OH)2.

Sergio [31]

The answer is -60.57 = -60.6 KJ.
CaC2(s) + 2 H2O(l) ---> Ca(OH)2(s) +C2H2(g) H= -127.2 KJ
Hf C2H2 = 226.77
Hf Ca(OH)2 = -986.2
Hf H2O = -285.83
Now,

add them up. 226.77 - 986.2 + (2*285.83) = -187.77
Add back the total enthalpy that is given in the question
-187.77+127.2 = -60.57

A liquid mixture contains 1 kg of water, 1.9 lb of ethanol, and 4.6 lb of methyl acetate. What is the weight fraction of ethanol

slamgirl [31]

Answer: The weight fraction of ethanol in the mixture is

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of water = 1 kg = 2.205 lb (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 2.205 lb)

Mass of ethanol = 1.9 lb

Mass of ethyl acetate = 4.6 lb

Mass of mixture = [2.205 + 1.9 + 4.6] = 8.705 lb

To calculate the percentage composition of ethanol in mixture, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ composition of ethanol}=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100$

Mass of mixture = 8.705 lb

Mass of ethanol = 1.9 lb

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ composition of ethanol}=\frac{1.9lb}{8.705lb}\times 100=21.8\%$

Hence, the weight fraction of ethanol in the mixture is 21.8 %

Each of the two different solids A and B melts at 133 o C. A sample of an unknown solid melts around 133 o C, and is either A or

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The melting point range of a pure compound is about 1-2ºC of the expected melting point. An impure solid melts within a range that is both larger than that of the pure substance (>1ºC) and begin at a lower temperature because impurities decrease the meting point. A melting range of 5º or more indicates that a compound is impure.

Since the melting points of A and B are estimated at 133 o C, the melting point range for each pure substance must be slightly different from each other. The melting point of the unknown is measured and its range is compared with the melting point ranges of pure A and B then decision can now be made about the identity of the unknown solid.
