Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When monomers in a chemical reaction combine together then it results in the formation of long chains. This process is known as polymerization.

For example, rubber and plastic are formed by polymerization.

Esterification is defined as a process in which esters are formed when an acid is heated with alcohol.

Saponification is defined as a process in which aqueous alkali is heated with a fat or oil resulting in the formation of a soap.

Fermentation is a process in which bacteria like microorganisms, yeast etc help in the breakdown of a substance into simpler substances.

Thus, we can conclude that polymerization is an organic reaction which produces rubber and plastics.

Given the reaction: solid sodium reacts with chlorine gas to form solid sodium chloride How many moles of the product result fro
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

number of moles of NaCl produce = 12 mol

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to write the chemical equation of the reaction and balance it .

Na(s) + Cl2(g) → NaCl(s)

The balanced equation is as follows:

2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)

1 mole(71 g) of chlorine produces 2 moles(117  g) of sodium chloride

6 mole of chlorine gas will produce ? mole of sodium chloride

cross multiply

number of moles of NaCl produce = 6 × 2

number of moles of NaCl produce = 12 moles

number of moles of NaCl produce = 12 mol

How many particles are in a 151 g sample of Li2O?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

3.052 × 10^24 particles

Explanation:

To get the number of particles (nA) in a substance, we multiply the number of moles of the substance by Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10^23)

The mass of Li2O given in this question is as follows: 151grams.

To convert this mass value to moles, we use;

moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Li2O = 6.9(2) + 16

= 13.8 + 16

= 29.8g/mol

Mole = 151/29.8g

mole = 5.07moles

number of particles (nA) of Li2O = 5.07 × 6.02 × 10^23

= 30.52 × 10^23

= 3.052 × 10^24 particles.
