Answer:

Polyhydroxyl alcohols

Explanation:

Whenever we have several C-OH bonds, we have a polyhydroxyl alcohol. For example, if we have just one alcohol group, that is, an R-OH group, then the naming is simple, say, we have EtOH, it's ethanol.

The problem becomes more complicated when we have several hydroxyl groups present in the alcohol. Let's say we have an ethane molecule and we replace the hydrogen atoms of carbon 1 and 2 with hydroxyl groups. In that case, we have 1,2-ethanediol. Similarly, we can have triols etc.

That said, we have poly (several) hydroxyl groups and we can generalize this to having polyhydroxyl alcohols.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Answers are in the explanation

Explanation:

Equlibrium of HF in H₂O is:

HF + H₂O ⇄ F⁻ + H₃O⁺

Now, the KOH reacts with HF, thus:

KOH + HF →  F⁻ + H₂O

<em>That means after reaction, concentration of HF decrease increasing F⁻ concentration.</em>

Now, seeing the equilibrium, as moles of HF decrease and F⁻ moles increase, the equilibrium will shift to the left decreasing H₃O⁺ concentration.

For the statements:

A. The number of moles of HF will increase. <em>FALSE</em>. HF react with KOH, thus, moles of HF decrease

B. The number of moles of F- will decrease. <em>FALSE</em>. The reaction produce  F⁻ increasing its moles.

C. The equilibrium concentration of H₃O⁺ will increase. <em>FALSE. </em>The equilibrium shift to the left decreasing concentration of H₃O⁺

D. The pH will decrease. <em>FALSE</em>. As the H₃O⁺ concentration decrease, pH will increase

E. The ratio of [HF] / [F-] will remain the same. <em>FALSE</em>. Because moles of HF are decreasing whereas F- moles are increasing changing, thus, ratio.
