Chemistry
1 answer:
mixer [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Substances generate a smell when their molecules land on so-called olfactory neurones in our noses (which, for some things, is a pretty unpleasant thought). ... But this fails to explain why some molecules with similar shapes can smell completely different, while others with quite different shapes can have a similar scent.

Identify which of the following oxidation-reduction reactions are balanced and which are unbalanced in both mass and charge. 1.2
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

1. Balanced

2. Unbalanced

3. Unbalanced

Explanation:

<em>Identify which of the following oxidation-reduction reactions are balanced and which are unbalanced in both mass and charge. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>1. Ag⁺(aq) + Li(s) → Ag(s) + Li⁺(aq) </em>

This reaction is balanced in both mass  and charge.

<em>2. Fe(s) + Na⁺(aq) → Fe²⁺(aq) + Na(s) </em>

This reaction is balanced in mass but unbalanced in charge since the charge to the left is +1 and the charge to the right is 2+.

<em>3. K(s) + H₂O(l) → KOH(aq) + H₂(g)</em>

This reaction is balanced in charge but unbalanced in mass since there are 2 atoms of H to the left and 3 atoms of H to the right.

Which of the following would result in butyl phenyl ether as the major product? a. Reaction of phenoxide with 1-bromobutane b. R
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Reaction of 1-butanol with bromobenzene

Explanation:

The reaction would yield ether as the major product is the reaction of the 1-butanol with bromobenzene. This is because the reaction does not have the large percentage of the undesired side product. In fact, the major product is about 85 % in composition, compared to the 15 % of the minor product. Hence, the reaction is efficient.

1.) A compound is a thing that is composed of two or more (separate) elements.

2.) A compound cannot be separated easily, while its properties differ from where it originates from. It also is formed from chemical reactions.

3.) A pure substance, also known as chemical substance, is a material with constant composition and consistant properties.

4.) If a substance is not a pure substance, then it is an impure substance.

Hope this helped. :)
