Use the "x is small" approximation to find the concentration of the products in the following reaction which initially contains

only 0.85 M HCN. Decide whether using the approximation was valid or invalid.HCN(aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + CN−(aq), Kc= 6.17 x 10−10

Answer:

Concentration of product at equilibrium ;

[H^+]=0.0000229 M

[CN^-]=0.0000229 M

Explanation:

HCN(aq)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq) + CN^-(aq)

initially

0.85 M        0    0

(0.85-x)M    x      x

The equilibrium constant of reaction = K_c= 6.17\times 10^{-10}

The expression of an equilibrium cannot can be written as:

K_c=\frac{[H^+][CN^-]}{[HCN]}

6.17\times 10^{-10}=\frac{x\times x}{(0.85-x)}

Solving for x:

x = 0.0000229

Concentration of product at equilibrium ;

[H^+]=0.0000229 M

[CN^-]=0.0000229 M

Acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) undergoes a Wolf-Kishner reaction, which is the addition of hydrazine (H2NNH2) with subsequent addition of
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Reduced, alkane

Explanation:

Wolf-Kishner reaction is a type of reduction reaction in which aldehydes and ketones are reduced to their corresponding alkane in the presence of a base.

This reaction occurs at high temperature.

Alkane formed has a same number of carbon as aldehyde and ketone.

If acetaldehyde undergoes a Wolf-Kishner reaction in the presence of base and heat, then ethane is formed. Nitrogen is formed as a byproduct.

Here, acetaldehyde is reduced to form ethane.

So, acetaldehyde undergoes a Wolf-Kishner reaction, which is the addition of hydrazine  with subsequent addition of a base and heat. In this reaction, the aldehyde is reduced, resulting in alkane product.

What you think would happen if global warming caused a decrease in all clouds
marta [7]

Answer:

Global warming is expected to cause changes in the amount of cloud cover, and the height and thickness of these clouds in the future, shifting the balance between the parasol and blanket effects of clouds. The knock-on effect this will have on temperature is known as cloud feedback
