A(n) ________ is a group of atoms that determines many of the properties of an organic molecule.

1 answer:

4 0

A functional group is a group of atoms that determines many of the properties of an organic molecule.
For example functional group for alcohol is hydroxyl group (-OH) and for carboxylic acid is carboxyl group (-COOH).
Alpha carbon is the first carbon atom after the carbon that attaches to the functional group.

Suppose you need to prepare 136.9 mL of a 0.315 M aqueous solution of NaCl.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

2.52 g NaCl

Explanation:

(Step 1)

To find the mass, you first need to find the moles NaCl. This value can be found using the molarity ratio:

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

After you convert mL to L, you can plug the given values into the equation and simplify to find moles.

136.9 mL / 1,000 = 0.1369 L

Molarity = moles / volume

0.315 M = moles / 0.1369 L

0.0431 = moles

(Step 2)

Now, you can use the molar mass to convert moles to grams.

Molar Mass (NaCl): 22.990 g/mol + 35.453 g/mol

Molar Mass (NaCl): 58.443 g/mol

0.0431 moles NaCl 58.443 g
------------------------------ x ------------------- = 2.52 g NaCl
1 mole

Which of the following is a physical change?

vodka [1.7K]

Hello,
A physical change describes a change that does physically and does not display “chemical” signs which are signs that indicate a precipitate being formed, change in color, density, or producing gas, etc. “Tearing a piece of paper in half” is a physical change because like I said earlier it doesn’t show any chemical change signs. I hope this helps you out!

C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l), ΔH = –1.37 × 103 kJ For the combustion of ethyl alcohol as described in the above equati

babymother [125]

Answer:

The true statements are: I. The reaction is exothermic.

II. The enthalpy change would be different if gaseous water was produced.

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction: C₂H₅OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(l), ΔH= -1.37×10³kJ

1. In an exothermic reaction, heat or energy is released from the system to the surrounding. Thus for an exothermic process the change in enthalpy is less than 0 or negative (ΔH < 0) .

Since the enthalpy change for a combustion reaction is negative. Therefore, the given reaction is exothermic.

2. The change in enthalpy (ΔH) of a reaction is equal to difference of the sum of standard enthalpy of formation (ΔHf°) of the products and the reactants.

ΔHr° = ∑ n.ΔHf°(products) − ∑ n.ΔHf°(reactants)

As the value of ΔHf° of water in gaseous state and liquid state is not the same.

Therefore, the enthalpy change of the reaction will be different, if gaseous water was present instead of liquid water.

3. An oxidation-reduction reaction or a redox reaction involves simultaneous reduction and oxidation processes.

The given chemical reaction, represents the combustion reaction of ethanol.

Since combustion reactions are redox reactions. Therefore, the given combustion reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

4. According to the ideal gas equation: P.V =n.R.T

Volume (V) ∝ n (number of moles of gas)

Since the number of moles (n) of gaseous reactants is 3 and number of moles of gaseous (n) products is 2.

Therefore, the volume occupied by 3 moles of the reactant gaseous molecules will be more than 2 moles product gaseous molecules.
