4 0
  1. <u>Physical Properties :</u>
  • It is a crystalline colorless solid structure it is soluble in solution such as ether, alcohol, and chloroform but insoluble in water.
  • It is dangerous when it is dry and is very volatile and decomposes when it reaches 103 c.

    2. <u>Chemical Properties :</u>

  • It causes swelling of the skin and undergoes free radical products that are highly reactive.
  • It is irritant when it contacts the skin it breaks down to yield oxygen and benzoic acid.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Benzoyl Peroxide is widely used in industry at large scale.
  • It is formed when there is a reaction between hydrogen peroxide and benzoyl chloride.
  • Benzoyl peroxide is used in bread and cheese as the bleaching agent and also used in cosmetics as hair coloring.  
  • Because of its antibacterial property and a peroxide group it is applied to the human skin to treat acne.

Answer:

Number of moles = 10.6 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Molar mass of H = 1.008 g/mol

Molar mass of C = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16.00 g/mol

Mass of citric acid = 2.03 kg (2.03×1000 = 2030 g)

Number of moles of citric acid = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Now we will calculate the molar mass of citric acid:

C₆H₈O₇ = (12.01× 6) + (1.008×8) + (16.00×7)

C₆H₈O₇ = 72.06 + 8.064+112

C₆H₈O₇ = 192.124g/mol

Number of moles = 2030 g/ 192.124g/mol

Number of moles = 10.6 mol

How many carbon atoms are represented by the model below<br><br> A) 0<br> B) 3<br> C) 2<br> D) 1
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Option (B) 3.

Explanation:

In the model represented above, the two extreme represent carbon atoms since no other group are attached to it. The joint at the middle also represent carbon atom.

Thus, we can write a more simplify illustration for the model above as

C—C—C

From the above illustration, we can see that the model contains 3 carbon atom.
