Answer:
The cis double bond present in unsaturated fatty acids acids results in lower melting point when compared to saturated fatty acids of the same chain length.
Explanation:
Melting point of a fatty acids are affected by the length and degree of unsaturation of the hydrocarbon chain.
At room temperature, saturated fatty acids with hydrocarbon chain lengths between 12-24 are waxy solids whereas unsaturated atty acids of the same chain length are liquids. This is due to the nature of the packing of the fatty acid molecules in the saturated and unsaturated compounds.
In the saturated compounds, the molecules are tightly packed side by side with minimal steric hindrance and maximal van der Waals forces of attraction between molecules. However, in unsaturated fatty acids, the cis double bond introduces a bend or kink in the molecules which then interferes with the tight packing of the molecules and reducing interaction between molecules. Therefore, less energy is required to cause a disorder in the arrangement of unsaturated fatty acids, leading to a lowering of melting point.
When the dew point temperature and air temperature are equal, the air is said to be saturated. Dew point temperature is NEVER GREATER than the air temperature. Therefore, if the air cools, moisture must be removed from the air and this is accomplished through condensation.
<u>Answer:</u> The volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the volume of solution, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:
Given mass of barium chlorate = 25.0 g
Molar mass of barium chlorate = 304.23 g/mol
Molarity of solution = 0.420 mol/L
Volume of solution = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL
According to the law of conservation of mass, the amount of BARIUM present of the reactants is the same as the amount present in the products (the precipitate).
(11.21 g BaSO4) / (233.4 g/mol BaSO4) = 0.0480 mol BaSO4 and original barium salt
(10.0 g) / (0.0480 mol) = 208.3 g/mol
So it must have been BaCl2, because the molar mass of Barium is 137 which leave 71 grams left. Since Barium is a +2 charge, it means the atom next to it must be twice. Chlorine mass is 35, which twice is 71
