Answer: A.  Diethyl ether has a very low miscibility in wate

The fact that the diethyl ether is miscible or not in water <u>does not imply a ris</u>k for the person who is working with this reagent in the laboratory.

However, the fact that diethyl ether forms explosive peroxides and that it is highly flammable implies that there is a risk of explosion when exposed to air and sunlight. On the other hand, as option C mentions, if a person inhales a large quantity of this reagent, they may lose consciousness and suffer some injury when fainting, due to the powerful anesthetic effect of this reagent.<u> In conclusion, options B, C and D are statements that imply safety problems associated with the use of diethyl ether in the laboratory, while option A does not imply it.</u>

How many milliliters of a 1.25 molar hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution would be needed to react completely with 60.0 grams of cal
stich3 [128]

<u>Answer:</u>

2400 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ca + 2HCl \implies CaCl_2 + H_2

According to this equation, the stoichiometric ratio between Ca and HCl for the complete reaction is 1:2.

We know that the number of moles of Ca can be calculated using the mole formula. (<em>number of moles = mass / molar mass</em>)

Moles of Calcium = \frac{60}{40} = 1.5 mol

So the moles of HCl = 1.5 \times 2 = 3.0 mol

<em>Volume of HCl solution = Moles of HCl/ concentration of HCl</em>

Volume of HCl solution = \frac{3}{1.25} = 2400 mL

A certain liquid X has a normal boiling point of 108.30 °C and a boiling point elevation constant Kb=1.07 °C kg/mol. A solution
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

34,6g of (NH₄)₂SO₄

Explanation:

The boiling-point elevation describes the phenomenon in which the boiling point of a liquid increases with the addition of a compound. The formula is:

ΔT = kb×m

Where ΔT is Tsolution - T solvent; kb is ebullioscopic constant and m is molality of ions in solution.

For the problem:

ΔT = 109,7°C-108,3°C = 1,4°C

kb = 1.07 °C kg/mol

Solving:

m = 1,31 mol/kg

As mass of X = 600g = 0,600kg:

1,31mol/kg×0,600kg = 0,785 moles of ions. As (NH₄)₂SO₄ has three ions:

0,785 moles of ions×\frac{1(NH_{4})_{2}SO_{4}}{3Ions} = 0,262 moles of (NH₄)₂SO₄

As molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ is 132,14g/mol:

0,262 moles of (NH₄)₂SO₄×\frac{132,14g}{1mol} = <em>34,6g of (NH₄)₂SO₄</em>

<em></em>

Why is this flower able to self-pollinate
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A flower is self-pollinated if pollen is transferred to it from any flower of the same plant and cross-pollinated if the pollen comes from a flower on a different plant.

Explanation:

This is because each flower is capable of fertilizing itself by autogamy. Autogamy means that the male part of a flower sends pollen to the female part of the same flower.
