Answer:

Explanation:

Please take a look at the picture attached for the drawings and structures.

C2H4 is a alkene (C-C double bond). When steam (water) is added, it turns into an alcohol, where the double bond breaks and a (-OH) functional group is attached to one of the Carbons. In this case, C2H4 ethene is turned into ethanol.

When an alcohol undergoes oxidation, primary alcohols turn into aldehyde (-CHO) or carboxylic acids (-COOH). Secondary alcohol turns into ketone. Ethanol is a primary alcohol. And since it later reacts with propanol, it can only form carboxylic acid when it oxidizes. The product in this reaction is ethanoic acid.

Carboxylic acid reacts with alcohol to form an ester (-COO-). the -COOH group from acid combines with the -OH group from alcohol to form an ester bond -COO- while eliminating H2O. Therefore, when propanol undergoes esterification with ethanoic acid, propyl ethanoate is produced. It is the answer of B.

When 8.0 moles of methanol are reacted with 9.0 moles of oxygen, how many moles of water vapor does the reaction produce?

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

12 moles of H₂O are formed in this combustion.

Explanation:

First of all, think the reaction:

2CH₃OH (l) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂ (g) + 4H₂O (g)

Ratio in the reactants is 2:3, so 2 mol of methanol need 3 mol of oxygen to react. Then 8 mol of CH₃OH, will need (8.3)/2 = 12 moles of O₂

We have 9 moles of O₂, so this is the limiting reactant.

3 mol of oxygen produce 4 mol of water

Then, 9 mol of oxygen will produce ( 9 .4)/3 = 12 moles

Which describes a way to speed up the collisions between hydrogen and oxygen molecules to produce more water?

rodikova [14]

Equation:2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(g)

Smaller container means less volume, and the molecules will hit the walls of the container more frequently because there's less space available and the pressure will go up. I guess this would mean that the side with fewer moles would be favored as a result. We count the number of moles on the reactants and products and find that there are fewer moles on the product side, so I guess this would favor the product formation.

How do water molecules move away from their H-O-H configuration to become new molecules?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

A water molecule is consists of two hydrogen atom, each bound to the central oxygen atom through a covalent chemical bond.

Water molecules can form new molecules by moving away from their H-O-H configuration due to thermal motions and rotations. Thermal motions and rotations break the individual hydrogen bonds and change the H-O-H configuration influenced by the temperature and pressure.

Organisms reproduce by two main methods. One is division, in which the animal divides and creates an exact copy of itself. What

uysha [10]

Division (asexual) method, and the sexual method of reproduction where two organisms produce an offspring. The sexual reproduction requires the interaction of two organisms; gametes, typically a fertilization. The offspring consists of characteristics derived from both of the parental organisms.
