3. Hydrochloric acid is used to clean metals.
ss7ja [257]
The answer to your question is option b, a base. This is because the question clearly tells you that one reactant is an acid. Then, it tells you that an acid plus something gives you a salt and water, as products

From background knowledge, we know that a base plus acid gives you a salt and water. The hydroxide ions from the base neutralise the hydrogen ions from the acid, which gives you water ( as it has a pH of 7).

Therefore, your answer is b, a base

Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the addition of HCN in water with NaOH to 3,4-dimethylcyclopentan-1-one to give the correspo
Crank

Answer:

See picture and explanation below

Explanation:

In the attached picture you have the answer for this.

In the first step, we have an acid base reaction between HCN and NaOH. When this happens, its formed the following:

HCN + NaOH --------> CN⁻ + H₂O + Na⁺

As a second step, The CN⁻ attacks the carbonile group in the cyclopentane. This causes to open the double bond, and then, the Cyano enters the molecule.

The final step is another acid base reaction, where the oxygen substracts a hydrogen atom of the water in the medium, and then, the alcohol group is formed. With this step, the cyanohydrin is finally formed. See the mechanism below in the picture.

Hope this helps

At 55.0 ∘C, what is the vapor pressure of a solution prepared by dissolving 78.4 g of LiF in 253 g of water? The vapor pressure
ddd [48]

Answer:

82.5 mmHg

Explanation:

The vapor pressure of a solution that contains a non-volatile solute will depend on the mole fraction of the solvent and on the vapor pressure of the pure solvent at the same temperature.

P sol=  χsolvent ⋅ P∘solvent, where

Psol - the vapor pressure of the solution

χ solvent - the mole fraction of the solvent

P ∘solvent - the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

Now, the most important thing to realize here is that lithium fluoride,  

LiF , a soluble ionic compound, will dissociate completely in aqueous solution to form lithium cations and fluoride anions.

LiF (aq] → Li+(aq]  + F − (aq]

Notice that every mole of lithium fluoride produces one mole of lithium cations and one mole of fluoride anions.

This means that you get a total of two moles of ions for every one mole of lithium fluoride in the solution.

Use lithium fluoride's molar mass to determine how many moles would be found in the given sample

78.4g⋅ (1 mole LiF /25.94 g)  = 3.022 moles LiF

This means that the solution will contain

3.022 moles LiF ⋅  (2 moles ions /1 mole LiF)  = 6.044 moles ions

Now, water's mole fraction in this solution will be equal to the number of moles of water divided by the total number of moles present in the solution.

To get the number of moles of water, use its molar mass

253  g  ⋅  (1 mole H 2O / 18.015 g) = 14.044 moles H 2O

This means that water's mole fraction will be

χwater = 14.044 moles  / (14.044 +6.044 )moles = 0.6991

The vapor pressure of the solution will thus be

Psol= 0.6991  ⋅ 118 mmHg = 82.5 mmHg
