Answer : A - carboxyl group.


The carbon in the carboxyl group is bonded to a hydroxyl group and also it is double bonded to an oxygen group.


The carboxyl group when it is dissolved in a solution donates it's hydrogen ion(H+ ion). When it is dissolved in water, the carboxyl group loses its H+ ion to form negatively charged ion.


RCOOH + H2O⇄RCOO- + H3O+


Thus the carboxyl group act as an acid when dissolved in water.

Please help with question 4 and 5 please!!

Question four is : Gaseous state

Question five is : A rise in temperature increases the kinetic energy and speed of particles; it does not weaken the forces between them. The particles in solids vibrate about fixed positions; even at very low temperatures. Individual particles in liquids and gases have no fixed positions and move chaotically.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!

What is the volume of 2.1 moles of chlorine gas (Cl2) at standard temperature and pressure (STP)?
steposvetlana [31]
STP condition mean we have P=1 atm. T=273K. R=ideal gas constant, but make sure you use the one that has the same units of pressure, temperature that you are using. In this case R=0.0821 L*atm K^-1mol^1. You are provided with n=2.1 moles.
V=nRTP
Input your values and solve.

Determine the volume of water to be added to the nitric acid solution at a concentration of 8.61 mol / L to prepare 500 mL of th
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

398 mL

Explanation:

Using the equation for molarity,

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ where C₁ = concentration before adding water = 8.61 mol/L and V₁ = volume before adding water, C₂ = concentration after adding water = 1.75 mol/L and V₂ = volume after adding water = 500 mL = 0.5 L

V₂ = V₁ + V' where V' = volume of water added.

So, From C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

V₁ =  C₂V₂/C₁

= 1.75 mol/L × 0.5 L ÷ 8.61 mol/L

= 0.875 mol/8.61 mol/L

= 0.102 L

So, V₂ = V₁ + V'

0.5 L = 0.102 L + V'

V' = 0.5 L - 0.102 L

= 0.398 L

= 398 mL

So, we need to add 398 mL of water to the nitric solution.
