Answer:
When plastics decomposed, they produce methane gas, which contributes to global warming (not questioning beliefs on the matter). Plastic debris also is an issue affecting the ecology of an environment and can cause issues for the affected organisms. But the greenhouse gases released from biodegradable plastics is likely a greater concern.
Potential energy and height; best guess;)
Conjugate base of Propanoic acid (
is propanoate where -COOH group gets converted to -CO
. The structure of conjugate base of Propanoic acid is shown in the diagram.
The
above which 90% of the compound will be in this conjugate base form can be determined using Henderson's equation as propanoic acid is weak acid and it can form buffer solution on reaction with strong base.
=
+ log
=4.9+log
=5.85
As 90% conjugate base is present, so propanoic acid present 10%.
The solution to the problem is as follows:
<span>a)
C + O2 = CO2
Molar mass CO2 = 44 g/mol
3.67 g CO2 * 1 mol / 44 g =
=0.0834 mol CO2 = 0.0834 mol C
I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
