Answer:
- <em>During the polymerization of a 20 monomer-long cellulose molecule,</em> <u>19 molecules of water are released.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
In simple terms, <em>cellulose </em>is the biopolymer formed by many glucose units. This is cellulose is the polymer and glucose is the monomer.
To have a <em>20 monomer-long cellulose molecule</em>, 20 monomers have been chemically bonded by reacting 19 times, as it is explained in the next paragrpahs, and so 19 molecules of water have been released.
You can imaging the polymerization process as a step-by-step reaction in which the first step is the condensation reaction of one glucose molelecule to produce a 2 monomer-long chain, with the release of one molecule of water: the second step would be the condensation reaction between the 2 monomer-long chain with another glucose molecule, with the release of an additional molecule of water, and so on, until 19 condensation reactions happen, to obtain the 20 monomer-long cellulose molecule.
Condensation is the loss of water in a chemical reaction.
When two glucose molecules react together, condensation occurs. One OH group from each glucose molecule come together, the OH from one glucose molecule combines with the H part of the OH from the other glucose molecule, to form H₂O (water that is released).
The two glucose molecules (monomers) will form one bigger molecule where the two glucose monomers are bonded through the oxygen atom that did not form part of the water molecule released.
Then, a 20-monomer chain means 19 condenstation reactions, with the release of 19 molecules of water.
<span>Answer:
A 0.04403 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-mL at 289.0 K and 1.10 atm. Upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 25.305% C and 74.695% Cl. What is the molecular formula of the compound?
--------------------------------------...
Seems like I did a problem very similar to this--this must be the "B" test. But the halogen was different.
25.305% C/12 = 2.108
74.695% Cl/35.5 = 2.104
So the empirical formula would be CH. However, there are many compounds which fit this bill, so we have to use the gas data. (And I made, in the previous problem, the simplifying assumption that 289C and 1.10 atm would offset each other, so I'll do that, too.)
0.044 grams/10 ml = x/22.4 liters
0.044g/0.010 liters = x/22.4 liters
22.4 liters/0.010 liters = 2240 (ratio)
2240 x .044 = 98.56 (actual atomic weight)
CCl = 35.5+12 or 47.5, so two of those is 95 grams/mole.
This is sufficiient to distinguish C2CL2, (dichloroacetylene)
from C6CL6 (hexachlorobenzene) which would
mass 3 times as much.</span>
Answer:
D) forms hydronium ions in water
Explanation:
Texture and conductivity are physical properties which makes answer A and B wrong. Answer C does not refer to a chemical reaction.
Answer:
C. Arrhenius
An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide (OH–) ions. In other words, a base increases the concentration of OH– ions in an aqueous solution.

Answer:
2.53 L is the volume of H₂ needed
Explanation:
The reaction is: C₁₈H₃₀O₂ + 3H₂ → C₁₈H₃₆O₂
By the way we can say, that 1 mol of linolenic acid reacts with 3 moles of oxygen in order to produce, 1 mol of stearic acid.
By stoichiometry, ratio is 1:3
Let's convert the mass of the linolenic acid to moles:
10.5 g . 1 mol / 278.42 g = 0.0377 moles
We apply a rule of three:
1 mol of linolenic acid needs 3 moles of H₂ to react
Then, 0.0377 moles will react with (0.0377 . 3 )/1 = 0.113 moles of hydrogen
We apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume (condition of measure are STP) → P . V = n . R . T → V = ( n . R .T ) / P
V = (0.113 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273.15K) 1 atm = 2.53 L
