When you are balancing chemical reactions (equations'), what must you never touch?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer option is: the number in subscript.

When you are balancing any chemical equation, you must never touch or change the number in subscript of the molecule of a chemical or compound as it will upset the composition.

How many liters of 4.0 M NaOH solution will react with 1.2 mol H2SO4? (Remember to balance the equation.)
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The answer is D. 0.60 L

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation including states of matter is;

H₂SO₄(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Na₂SO₄(aq) + 2H₂O(l)

More simple:

H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Now, we can see from this reaction equation that the mole ratio of NaOH to H2SO4 is 2:1

Number of moles of H2SO4 reacted = 1.2 moles

Hence;

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of H2SO4

x moles of NaOH reacts with 1.2 moles of H2SO4

x = 2 * 1.2/1 = 2.4 moles of NaOH

Recall that;

Number of moles = Concentration * Volume

Volume = number of moles/concentration

Volume of NaOH  is obtained from;

Volume = 2.4 moles/ 4.0 M

Volume =  0.60 L

Which is generally stronger, intermolecular interactions or intramolecular interactions? Which is generally stronger, intermolec
Inessa [10]

Answer:

A. Intramolecular interactions are generally stronger.

B. a. Only intermolecular interactions are broken when a liquid is converted to a gas.

Explanation:

<em>A. Which is generally stronger, intermolecular interactions or intramolecular interactions?</em>

Intramolecular interactions, in which electrons are gained, lost or shared, constitute true bonds and are one or two orders of magnitude stronger than intermolecular interactions.

<em>B. Which of these kinds of interactions are broken when a liquid is converted to a gas?</em>

When a liquid vaporizes, the intermolecular attractions are broken, that is, molecules get more separated. However, true bonds are not broken which is why the molecules keep their chemical identity.
