To begin the experiment, 1.11g of methane CH4 is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 1000 grams of water. The initial temper

ature of water is 24.85oC. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g oC. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 695 J/ oC . After the reaction the final temperature of the water is 35.65oC.
Using the formula waterq =m•c•ΔT ,calculate the heat absorbed by the water

In order to calculate the enthalpy of the reaction, we first calculate the heat released using the given formula.
Q = mc<span>ΔT
Q = 1000 x 4.184 x (35.65 - 24.85)
Q = 45187.2 J = 45.2 kJ

Now, we determine the moles of methane that were burned.
Moles = mass / Mr
Moles = 1.11 / (12 + 4)
Moles = 0.07

The enthalpy of a reaction is the energy released per mole, so the enthalpy in this case is:
</span>ΔH = 45.2 / 0.07
ΔH = 645.7 kJ/mol

Answer : The only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Explanation :

Disproportionation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction reaction. It is a redox reaction.

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

(A) The given balanced reaction is,

H_2SeO_4(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2H^+(aq)\rightarrow H_2SeO_3(aq)+Cl_2(g)+H_2O(l)

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which chlorine shows oxidation and selenium shows reduction.

(B) The given balanced reaction is,

S_8(s)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 8SO_2(g)

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which sulfur shows oxidation and oxygen shows reduction.

(C) The given balanced reaction is,

3Br_2(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)

This reaction is a disproportionation reaction because in this reaction only one reactant bromine that shows both oxidation and reduction reaction.

(D) The given balanced reaction is,

Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of calcium and sulfate.

(E) The given balanced reaction is,

PtCl_4(s)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PtCl_6^{2-}(aq)

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of platinum and chlorine.

Hence, the only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Which of these do not obey the octet rule? select all that apply. select all that apply. clo clo− clo2− clo3− clo4−?
ioda

The correct answer is ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-

Kossel and Lewis in 1916 developed an important theory of chemical combination between atoms known as electronic theory of chemical bonding. According to this, atoms can combine either by transfer of valence electrons from one atom to another (gaining or losing) or by sharing of valence electron in order to have an octet( 8 electron) in their shells. This is known as octet rule.

In ClO2-, oxygen contains 8 electrons in its valence shell and oxygen will share one electron with chlorine to complete the octet of Cl. In other four, we can clearly see that there are more or less than 8 electrons in the outer shell of oxygen so we can clearly say that ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-  are disobeying the octet rule.

Why is oil unable to dissolve well in water? Water is polar and oil is nonpolar, which means they have no attraction for each ot
Marat540 [252]
Because water is polar and oil is nonpolar, their molecules are not attracted to each other. The molecules of a polar solvent like water are attracted to other polar molecules, such as those of sugar. This explains why sugar has such a high solubility in water. Ionic compounds, such as sodium chloride, are also highly soluble in water. Because water molecules are polar, they interact with the sodium and chloride ions. In general, polar solvents dissolve polar solutes, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes. This concept is often expressed as “Like dissolves like.” So many substances dissolve in water that it is sometimes called the universal solvent. Water is considered to be essential for life because it can carry just about anything the body needs to take in or needs to get rid of.

Roxanne was asked by her teacher to explain why sodium ions (Na) and chlorine ions (CI) combine into sodium chloride (NaCl).
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Roxanne said it was because chlorine is highly electronegative and sodium has a low ionization energy and that the ions Na and cr both have full electron shells.
