When an alkane reacts with an element from group 7a, the reaction is referred to as?

Chemistry

Mila [183]3 years ago

Answer:

Halogenation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we must remember that group VIIA elements are known as halogens which include F, Cl, Br, I and At. Now, when an alkane reacts with the diatomic form of one of those halogen a haloganation chemical reaction occurs forming an alkyl halide and a hydrogen halide. For instance, for ethane, if it reacts with iodine, ethyl iodide and hydrogen iodide are yielded based on the given example:

CH_3-CH_3+I_2\rightarrow CH_3-CH_2-I+HI

Best regards

Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbon, that is they contain hydrogen and carbon without a double or triple bond between the carbon atoms, e.g. ethane, propane. Group 7a in the periodic table are called halogens e.g chlorine, bromine. Alkanes react with halogens in a reaction called substitution, where halogens replace hydrogen atoms in alkanes.

What is the half-life of 20 g of a radioactive sample if 5 g remain after 8 minutes?
Anni [7]

Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 20 g

m (final mass after time T) = 5 g

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = ? (in minutes)

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 8 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

m =  \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}

5 =  \dfrac{20}{2^x}

2^x = \dfrac{20}{5}

2^x = 4

2^x = 2^2

\boxed{x = 2}


Now, let's find the half-life (P) of the radioactive sample, let's see:

T = x*P

8 = 2*P

2\:P = 8

P = \dfrac{8}{2}

\boxed{\boxed{P = 4\:minutes}}\Longleftarrow(Half-Life)\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)

If the solubility of a gas is 10.5 g/L at 525 kPa pressure, what is the solubility of the gas when the pressure is 225 kPa? Show
Talja [164]

Answer:

4.5 g/L.

Explanation:

  • To solve this problem, we must mention Henry's law.
  • Henry's law states that at a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas dissolved in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid.
  • It can be expressed as: P = KS,

P is the partial pressure of the gas above the solution.

K is the Henry's law constant,

S is the solubility of the gas.

  • At two different pressures, we have two different solubilities of the gas.

<em>∴ P₁S₂ = P₂S₁.</em>

P₁ = 525.0 kPa & S₁ = 10.5 g/L.

P₂ = 225.0 kPa & S₂ = ??? g/L.

∴ S₂ = P₂S₁/P₁ = (225.0 kPa)(10.5 g/L) / (525.0 kPa) = 4.5 g/L.

How many moles of calcium nitrate would react with 4.55 moles of chromium(iii) sulfate to produce calcium sulfate and chromium(i
Rasek [7]
The equation for the reaction between the calcium nitrate and chromium sulfate to form calcium sulfate and chromium(iii) nitrate is,
                            3Ca(NO3)2 + Cr2(SO4)3 --> 3CaSO4 + 2Cr(NO3)3
The balanced equation shows that for every 1 mole of chromium sulfate, there will be 3 moles of calcium nitrate. Therefore for this item, there will be 4.55 moles times 3 which is equal to 13.65.
