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.

Which requires more heat to warm from 22 c to 85 c, 50.0 g of water mor 200. g of aluminum metal?
Yuki888 [10]
Q=mc(change in temp)
Q is amount of heat, m is mass, c is specific heat

Water:
Q= (50.0g)(4.18 J/g°C)(63°C)
Q= 13167J

Aluminum:
Q= (200.0g)(0.900 J/g°C)(63°C)
Q= 11340J

Water requires more heat

A gas occupies 50.0mL at a standard temp. What volume would it occupy at 335 Celsius with
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

V₂ = 111.3 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 50.0 mL

Initial temperature = standard = 273.15 K

Final volume = ?

Final temperature = 335 °C (335+273.15 = 608.15 K)

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 50.0  mL ×608.15 K / 273.15 k

V₂ = 30407.5 mL.K / 273.15 K

V₂ = 111.3 mL
