About 95-98 percent of alcohol is oxidized to what two substances

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D. Water and Carbondioxide

Explanation:

Combustion of organic compounds in the presence of excess Oxygen will liberate carbondioxide (CO2) and water vapour (H2O). This is an exothermic reaction because heat is liberated to the surroundings.

CnH2n+1OH(aq) + (3/2*n)O2(g) --> nCO2(g) + (n + 1)H2O(g)

Addition of Oxygen can also be termed as a redox reaction. In this case, alcohols are oxidised while the Oxygen is reduced.

Example, (propanol)

C3H7OH(aq) + 9/2O2(g) --> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)

Which of the following is not a property of a buffer solution? a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. b) Resi
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

e) pH is independent of concentration.

Explanation:

a) It is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. <em>TRUE. </em>A buffer is defined as a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.

b) Resists pH changes because it reacts with added acid or base. <em>TRUE. </em>Thermodynamically, the reaction of added acid or base is faster with the buffer mixture than with H⁺ or OH⁻ ions of the solutions.

c) The maximum buffer capacity is at pH = pKa. <em>TRUE. </em>The buffer capacity is pka±1. For this, buffer capacity is maximum in pka.

d) pH is dependent on the solution ionic strength and temperature. <em>TRUE.</em> Ionic strength and temperature are factors that influence concentrations of ions in solutions as the H⁺ ion that is the responsible

e) pH is independent of concentration. <em>FALSE. </em>pH in a buffer depends completely of concentrations of the acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.
