Chemistry
1 answer:
Delvig [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

See below  

Step-by-step explanation:

An exothermic reaction tends to occur spontaneously because the products are more stable than the reactants.

Nature tries to get to the lowest energy state.

How many molecules are there in 4dm³ of nitrogen gas​
daser333 [38]

There are 1.078 x 10²³ molecules

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

4 dm³ = 4 L Nitrogen gas

Required

Number of molecules

Solution

Assumptions on STP (1 atm, 273 K), 1 mol gas = 22.4 L, so for 4 L :

mol = 4 : 22.4

mol = 0.179

1 mol = 6.02 x 10²³ particles(molecules, atoms)

For 0.179 :

= 0.179 x 6.02 x 10²³

= 1.078 x 10²³

How is the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from the chemical formula ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.

We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.

The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.

To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:

  • The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
  • The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to  the charge on the ion.

For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻

This would be:  2x + 7(-2) = -2

                          x = +6

We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.

Using the reagents below, list in order (by letter, no period) those necessary to transform 1-chlorobutane into 1-butyne. Note:
Andru [333]

Answer:

gde

Explanation:

We are attempting to synthesize 1-butyne from 1-chlorobutane. Since 1-chlorobutane is a primary alkyl halide, 1-butene is formed when 1-chlorobutane is reacted with a bulky base such as t -BuOK or t -BuOH in presence of strong heat. This is an E2 reaction.

Secondly, the 1-butene is reacted with bromine in carbon tetrachloride. The vicinal dihalide (1,2-dibromobutane) is formed. This can now undergo further elimination reactions in the presence of sodamide and strong heat to yield 1-butyne which is the desired product. These reactions involve the elimination of the first HBr molecule to give an alkenyl bromide. A second elimination now gives the terminal alkyne.

Assuming 100% dissociation, calculate the freezing point and boiling point (in °C) of a solution with 83.6 g of AgNO 3 in 1.00 k
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

  • <u>Freezing point: - 1.83ºC</u>
  • <u>Boiling point: 100.50ºC</u>

Explanation:

The <em>freezing point</em> and<em> boiling point</em> of solvents, when a solute is added, will change accordingly to the concentration of the solute particles.

The freezing point will decrease and the boiling point will increase. These are two colligative properties.
