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.

Indicate if the following statements are TRUE (T) or FALSE (F):
Aleks [24]

Answer:

a) T

b) T

c) F

d) F

e) T

f) T

g) T

h) F

I) F

j) F

k) F

l) F

Explanation:

The w/v concentration is obtained from, mass/volume. Hence;

%w/v= 50/1000= 5%

In the %w/w we have;

25g/100 g = 25% w/w

In combustion reaction, energy is given out hence it is exothermic.

Neutralization reaction yields a salt and water

% by mass of carbon is obtained from;

8× 12/114 × 100 = 84.1%

All the ionic substances mentioned have very low solubility in water.

One mole of a substance contains the Avogadro's number of each atom in the compound.

There are two iron atoms so one mole contains 2× 55.85 g of iron.

Some sulphates such as BaSO4 are insoluble in water.

Halides are soluble in water hence NaI is soluble in water.

The equation does not balance with the given coefficients because the number of atoms of each element on both sides differ.

The equation represents a decomposition of calcium carbonate as written.

The specific heat of copper is 0.385 j/g°c which equation would you use
cestrela7 [59]
Since there's specific heat, you should use Q=mc△T. Depends on if this question also involves phase change or not, you might will need Lf (latent heat of fusion) or Lv (latent heat of vaporisation).

A substance with a high pOH would likely have which of the following?
Anna [14]

Answer: a low OH^-  and low pH.

Explanation:

pH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pOH=-log[OH^-]

pOH=log\frac {1}{OH^-}

Thus as pOH and OH^- are inversely related, a solution having higher pOH will have less amount of OH^- concentration. And a solution having more pOH will have less pH.

Thus a substance with a high pOH would likely have low OH^- concentration and low pH.
