What is carbonixation ​

Chemistry
1 answer:
nydimaria [60]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

This has some interesting History in it.

Peat moss was once pounded into a sort of brick; sometimes with a little coal, these bricks were put to dry, and used for fuel.

The “Historical” part is in the name. I won’t go into why, ‘cause I type so slow and it is “extra”, but the peat, or coal, being TRULY organic, (that is made from plants) and burned as fuel is called “carbonixation”.

Explanation: Sort of a “Carbon + Oxidation”; many things in Chemistry have strange names that seem at first to make no sense; like “essence of Hartshorn”, is Ammonia (or ammonium hydroxide). A Hart is/was a type of deer in England and that area, and amines in the horn, when distilled, would yield Ammonia, “The Essence of Hartshorn”. Even the term “aromatic” has a long History, as do many compounds and nomenclature.

I hope that will do it.

The acid dissociation constant Ka equals 1.26 × 10–2 for HSO4– (acid 1) and is 5.6 × 10–10for NH4+(acid 2). Predict the net dire
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

As K >>> 1, the reaction will shift to the products

Explanation:

To know the direction of any reaction you must calculate the equilibrium constant, K. If K is < 1, the reaction will shift to the reactants and if k > 1 the reaction will shift to the products.

With the reactions:

<em>HSO₄⁻ ⇄ SO₄²⁻ + H⁺ Ka = 1.26x10⁻²</em>

And:

NH₄⁺ ⇄ NH₃⁺ + H⁺ Ka = 5.6x10⁻¹⁰

The inverse reaction:

<em>NH₃⁺ + H⁺ ⇄ NH₄⁺ 1/Ka = 1.8x10⁹</em>

<em />

The sum of the reactions:

HSO₄⁻ + NH₃⁺ + H⁺ ⇄ NH₄⁺ + SO₄²⁻ + H⁺ K = 1.26x10⁻² ₓ 1.8x10⁹ = 2.3x10⁷

<h3>As K >>> 1, the reaction will shift to the products</h3>

4. What is the SI unit for mass
Reil [10]

Answer: Mass is both a property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration (rate of change of velocity with respect to time) when a net force is applied. An object's mass also determines the strength of its gravitational attraction to other bodies.

Explanation: This what I could come up with. Hope this helps !!

Nitrogen is a group 15 element. What does being in this group imply about the structure of the nitrogen atom?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

D. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons.

Explanation:

Nitrogen is an element in group 5A of the periodic table. Elements in group 5A all contain just 5 valence electrons. (Electrons in the outer shell).

**Elements are organized into these groups in a periodic table based on the number of valence electrons which determines their charge. (Does not apply to transition metals)
