forsale [732]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of benzene is:

2C_6H_6+15O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+6H_2O

Explanation:

Combustion reactions : It is defined as the reactions in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water as a product.

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of benzene will be:

2C_6H_6+15O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+6H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction we can say that,

2 mole of benzene reacts with 15 moles of oxygen gas to produce 12 moles of carbon dioxide and 6 moles of water molecule.

What is the hydronium ion concentration of a 0.100 M acetic acid solution with Ka = 1.8 × 10-5? The equation for the dissociatio
evablogger [386]

Answer:

1.3×10⁻³ M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of acetic acid:

CH_3CO_2H(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq) + CH_3CO_2^-(aq)

We can write the law of mass action for it:

Ka=\frac{[H_3O^+][CH_3CO_2^-]}{[CH_3CO_2H]}

Of course, excluding the water as heterogeneous substances are not included. Then, in terms of the change x due to the dissociation extent, we are able to rewrite it as shown below:

1.8x10^{-5}=\frac{x*x}{0.100-x}

Thus, via the quadratic equation or solve, we obtain the following solutions:

x_1=-0.00135M\\x_2=0.00133M

Obviously, the solution is 0.00133M which match with the hydronium concentration, thus, answer is: 1.3×10⁻³ M in scientific notation.

Regards.

How to classify hemicetal and acetal
kumpel [21]
You might have meant hemiacetal, not hemicetal.
Acetals contain two –OR groups, one –R group and a –H atom. In hemiacetals, one of the –OR groups in acetals is replaced by a –OH group<span>.
