Write and balance the equation for the combustion of the fatty acid lauric acid, (C12H24O2).
Harlamova29_29 [7]

C12H24O2 +17 O2-------->12CO2 + 12H2O

<h3>Combustion:-</h3>

combustion is a chemical reaction that often involves the presence of oxygen and produces heat and light in the form of flames.

<h3>Lauric acid:-</h3>

Lauric acid has a 12-carbon backbone and is a saturated medium-chain fatty acid. In addition to being a key component of coconut oil and palm kernel oil, lauric acid occurs naturally in a variety of plant and animal fats and oils.

White solid lauric acid has a little bay oil odour to it.

Lauric acid is a cheap, non-toxic, and easy-to-handle substance that is frequently employed in lab studies on melting-point depression. Because lauric acid is a solid at ambient temperature but a liquid at boiling temperatures, it can be used to test different solutes to determine their molecular weights.

What makes slime, slime?
Naya [18.7K]
Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.

What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.

Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.


The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.


Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.

a 1.642 g sample of calcium bromide is dissolved in enough water to give 469.1 mL of solution what is the bromide ion concentrat
aleksklad [387]

The bromide concentration in this solution of calcium bromide dissolved in enough water to give 469.1 mL is 1.75 × 10-⁵M.

<h3>How to calculate concentration?</h3>

The concentration of a solution can be calculated by dividing the number of moles of the substance by its volume.

No of moles of calcium bromide is calculated as follows:

moles = 1.642 ÷ 199.89 = 8.215 × 10-³moles

Molarity = 8.215 × 10-³moles ÷ 469.1mL = 1.75 × 10-⁵M

Therefore, the bromide concentration in this solution of calcium bromide dissolved in enough water to give 469.1 mL is 1.75 × 10-⁵M.
