The lone pair of electrons on the oxygen atom in an ester can form hydrogen bonds in some situations, but esters cannot form hyd

Answer:

Esters have lower boiling point than alcohols.

Explanation:

Esters are the fruity smelling compounds which are formed from carboxylic acid and alcohol with the removal of water.

The general formula for the ester is RCOOR' which is prepared from RCOOH acid and R'OH alcohol.

Ester can not form strong hydrogen bond as there is no hydrogen attached to the electronegative atom in the ester and thus cannot form hydrogen bonds with each other.<u> Due to this factor, the interactions within the molecules of the ester is lower than that of alcohols which exist in strong hydrogen bonding. As a result, ester can be easily boiled when compared to the alcohols and thus they have lower value of boiling points.</u>

1. The most useful ore of aluminum is bauxite, in which Al is present as hydrated oxides, Al2O3⋅xH2O The number of kilowatt-hour
lianna [129]

*Answer:

Option A: 59.6

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 4.00 kg

The applied emf = 5.00 V

watts = volts * amperes

Step 2: Calculate amperes

equivalent mass of aluminum = 27 / 3 = 9  

mass of deposit = (equivalent mass x amperes x seconds) / 96500

4000 grams = (9* amperes * seconds) / 96500

amperes * seconds = 42888888.9

1 hour = 3600 seconds

amperes * hours = 42888888.9 / 3600 = 11913.6

amperes = 11913.6 / hours

Step 3: Calculate kilowatts

watts = 5 * 11913.6 / hours

watts = 59568 (per hour)

kilowatts = 59.6 (per hour)

The number of kilowatt-hours of electricity required to produce 4.00kg of aluminum from electrolysis of compounds from bauxite is 59.6 kWh when the applied emf is 5.00V

Calculate the mass in grams for each of the following liquids.
WITCHER [35]
The density is calculated as mass per volume, so if we want to solve for mass, we would multiply density by volume.
For Part A: if we have a density of 0.69 g/mL, and a volume of 280 mL, multiplying these will give a mass of: (0.69 g/mL)(280 mL) = 193.2 g. Rounded to 2 significant figures, this is 190 g gasoline.
For Part B: if we have a density of 0.79 g/mL, and a volume of 190 mL, multiplying these will give a mass of: (0.79 g/mL)(190 mL) = 150.1 g. Rounded to 2 significant figures, this is equal to 150 g ethanol.
