Answer:

The net ionic equation is as follows:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction between Hydrocyanic acid, HCN, and sodium hydroxide is a neutralization reaction between a weak acid and a strong base.

Hydrocyanic acid being a weak acid ionizes only slightly, while sodium hydroxide being a strong base ionizes completely. The equation for the reaction is given below:

A. HCN(aq) + NaOH-(aq) ----> NaCN(aq) + H2O(l)

Since Hydrocyanic acid is written in the aqueous form as it ionizes only slightly and the ionic equation is given below:

HCN(aq) + Na+(aq)+OH-(aq) ----> Na+(aq)+CN-(aq) + H2O(l)

Na+ being a spectator ion is removed from the net ionic equation given below:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

Hydrophobic compounds dissolve in
Anastaziya [24]
Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar molecules that group together to form micelles rather than be exposed to water. Hydrophobic molecules typically dissolve in nonpolar solvents (e.g., organic solvents).

__________ could be the formula of an alkene. a. c3h8 b. c2h8 c. c6h6 d. c3h6 e. c17h36
drek231 [11]

The general formula for alkenes is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.

What are alkenes?

Alkenes, commonly known as olefins, are organic unsaturated hydrocarbons that have one or more carbon-carbon double bonds in their chemical structure and are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with a double bond between the carbon atoms. Carbon atoms are connected by at least one double bond. The general formula for alkenes is C n H 2n. Olefin is frequently substituted with alkenes. The word "olefin" comes from the Greek phrase "olefin gas," which denotes the production of oil.

<u>Since, their general formula is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.</u>
