Answer:

Crystallization of tetrafloroethane C₂F₄ is easier than styrene C₈H₈ .

Explanation:

Crystallization -

crystallization is a process in which atoms are restructured in the form of crystals , some of the ways by which crystals form are melting , precipitating from a solution.

we need to consider the melting point of the given compounds ,

the melting point of styrene C₈H₈ is -30 °C

whereas the melting point of tetrafloroethane C₂F₄ is -140 °C ( 130.7 K ) since the melting point of C₂F₄ is less than C₈H₈ so it is easy to melt C₂F₄.

Hence it is easier to crystallize C₂F₄ .

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The net ionic equation is written below.

Explanation:

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium carbonate and nickel (II) chloride is given as:

$Na_2CO_3(aq.)+NiCl_2(aq.)\rightarrow 2NaCl(aq.)+NiCO_3(s)$

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)+Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2Cl^{-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)+2Na^+(aq.)+2Cl^-(aq.)$

As, sodium and chloride ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

$Ni^{2+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)$

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

1. Names

I. CH₃-CH₂-COOH = 49. propanoic acid

II. CH₃-CH₂-OH = 46. ethanol

III. CH₃-COO-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃ = 47. propyl ethanoate

IV. H-O-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃ = 48. propan-1-ol

V. H-COO-CH₃ = 51. methyl methanoate

VI. CH₃-COOH = 50. ethanoic acid

2. Precursors

52. methyl propionate ⇒ methanol + propanoic acid

53. ethyl methanoate ⇒ ethanol + methanoic acid
