Answer:

C6H5COOH + OH- —> C6H5COO- + H2O

Explanation:

C6H5COOH + OH- —> C6H5COO- + H2O

In the reaction above, C6H5COOH donate a proton(H+) to form the carboxylate ion C6H5COO-. The proton (H+) combines with the OH- to form H2O.

This can better be understood in the illustration below

C6H5COOH + NaOH —> C6H5COONa + H2O

The graph represents the reaction 2H₂O + 0₂ 2H₂O2 as it reaches
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

B.) and D.)

Explanation:

A.) is incorrect because the reaction technically never stops if the system remains in tact. Rather, there is just an equal amount of forward and reverse reactions occurring. This means that the overall concentrations of the reactants and products stays the same.

B.) is correct because when the concentrations of the reactants and products remain unchanged, then equilibrium is reached.

C.) in incorrect because, at this point, the concentrations of the reactants are still decreasing and the products are still increasing. If point 2 is specifically referencing the intersection of the lines, this cross symbolizes equal concentrations of the reactants and product. Keep in mind that equal concentrations does not equal equilibrium.

D.) is correct because a reaction moving forward means that mostly product is being created. In other words, the concentration of the product should be increasing. Meanwhile, the concentration of the reactants decrease because they are being used to create the product. As seen in the graph, the product (H₂O₂) is rapidly increasing in concentration. Meanwhile, the concentrations of the reactants (O₂ and H₂O) are decreasing as they would in a forward reaction.

In a hydrogen fuel cell, hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are combined to form water. Write the balanced chemical equation describing
xxTIMURxx [149]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical reaction is given below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A fuel cell is defined as the electrochemical cell which converts the chemical energy of a fuel (often used hydrogen) and an oxidizing agent (often used oxygen) into electrical energy via a pair of redox reactions.

The reactions which occur in hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell are:

At cathode:  H_2+2OH^-\rightarrow 2H_2O+2e^-

At anode:  \frac{1}{2}O_2+H_2O+2e^-\rightarrow 2OH^-

Net reaction:  H_2+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow H_2O

Thus, the chemical reaction is given above.

How is popcorn good for protecting a egg?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:Possibilities include balloons, popcorn, packing peanuts, wads of paper or cereal puffs. Encase the egg in any of these inside a paper or plastic bag, a sock or a stocking. If you have any bubble wrap around the house, wrapping the egg in several layers of bubble wrap should also provide a good cushion
