Answer : Maggie can change the question "How can recycling the plastic lower its exposure effect on environment" which will also include the scientific question on recycling procedures for plastics and what will be the effect of it on environment compared to normal plastics.

The environmental effects can be studied and related with the recyclable plastics and will promote the usage of such plastics.

I'm looking at the barometer in my lab as I type this question. It says the pressure is 968 torr. What is this pressure expresse
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1.27 atm.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Pressure (P) in torr = 968 torr

Pressure (P) in atm =...?

Thus, we can convert from torr to atm by doing the following:

Recall:

760 torr = 1 atm

Therefore,

968 torr = 968/760 = 1.27 atm

Therefore, 968 torr is equivalent to 1.27 atm.

Which of the following solutes has the greatest effect on the colligative properties for a given mass of pure water? Explain.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Option a.

0.01 mol of CaCl₂ will have the greatest effect on the colligative properties, because it has the biggest i

Explanation:

To determine which of the solute is going to have a greatest effect on colligative properties we have to consider the Van't Hoff factor (i)

These are the colligative properties:

ΔP = P° . Xm . i  →  Lowering vapor pressure

ΔT = Kb . m . i  → Boiling point elevation

ΔT = Kf . m . i  →  Freezing point depression

π = M . R . T  →  Osmotic pressure

Van't Hoff factor are the numbers of ions dissolved in the solution. For nonelectrolytes, the i values 1.

CaCl₂ and KNO₃ are two ionic solutes. They dissociate as this:

CaCl₂  → Ca²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

We have 1 mol of Ca²⁺ and 2 chlorides, so 3 moles of ions → i = 3

KNO₃ → K⁺ + NO₃⁻

We have 1 mol of K⁺ and 1 mol of nitrate, so 2 moles of ions → i = 2

Option a, is the best.

A piece of copper alloy with a mass of 85.0 g is heated from 30. °C to 45 °C. In the process, it absorbs 523 J of energy as heat
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

410.196 J/[kg*°C].

Explanation:

1) the equation of the energy is: E=c*m*(t₂-t₁), where E - energy (523 J), c - unknown specific heat of copper, m - mass of this copper [kg], t₂ - the final temperature, t₁ - initial temerature;

2) the specific heat of copper is:

c=\frac{E}{m*(t_2-t_1)}; \ => \ c=\frac{523}{0.085*(45-30)}=\frac{523}{1.275}=410.196[\frac{J}{kg*C}].

Select the keyword or phrase that will best complete each sentence.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

1) acetylide

2) enol

3) aldehydes

4) tautomers

5) alkynes

6) Hydroboration

7) Keto

8) methyl ketones

Explanation:

Acetylide anions (R-C≡C^-) is a strong nucleophile. Being a strong nucleophile, we can use it to open up an epoxide ring by SN2 mechanism. The attack of the acetylide ion occurs from the backside of the epoxide ring. It must attack at the less substituted side of the epoxide.

Oxomercuration of alkynes and hydroboration of alkynes are similar reactions in that they both yield carbonyl compounds that often exhibit keto-enol tautomerism.

The equilibrium position may lie towards the Keto form of the compound. Usually, if terminal alkynes are used, the product of the reaction is a methyl ketone.

Pick the correct pair of species that can form hydrogen bond with water. (A) CH, HCOOH (B) F, HCOOH (C) F .CH,OCH, (D) Both (B)
Xelga [282]

Answer:

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

Explanation:

(A) CH₄, HCOOH

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

(C) F⁻, CH₃-O-CH₃

The hydrogen bonds are formed when the hydrogen is found between two electronegative atoms such as oxygen (O), nitrogen (N) or florine (F).

O····H-O, F····H-O, O····H-N

(A) CH₄, HCOOH

- here methane CH₄ is not capable to form hydrogen bond with water

- formic acid HCOOH can form hydrogen bonds with water

H-C(=O)-O-H····OH₂

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

-both floride (F⁻) and formic acid can form hydrogen bonds with water

F····OH₂

H-C(=O)-O-H····OH₂

(C) F⁻, CH₃-O-CH₃

-  dimethyl-ether CH₃-O-CH₃ is not capable to form hydrogen bond with water

- floride (F⁻) can form hydrogen bonds with water

F····OH₂
