Answer:

C2H5OH

Explanation:

To know the compound used as the sample, let us calculate the empirical formula for the compound. This is illustrated below:

Data obtained from the question include:

Carbon (C) = 52.14%

Hydrogen (H) = 13.13%

Oxygen (O) = 34.73%

Next, divide the above by their individual molar mass

C = 52.14/12 = 4.345

H = 13.13/1 = 13.13

O = 34.73/16 = 2.171

Next, divide the above by the smallest number.

C = 4.345/2.171 = 2

H = 13.13/2.171 = 6

O = 2.171/2.171 = 1

Therefore, empirical formula for the compound is C2H6O

Now we can re-arrage C2H6O to become C2H5OH.

Therefore, the compound used as the sample is C2H5OH

The reaction A2 + 2 B → 2 BA is thought to occur by the following mechanism:
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

c. Z is a catalyst, and ZA2 and A are reaction intermediates.

Explanation:

Overall reaction is given as;

A2 + 2 B → 2 BA

Mechanism:

Step 1: A2 + Z → ZA2

Step 2: ZA2 + B → BA + Z + A

Step 3: A + B → BA

The options given are centered upon catalysts and reaction intermediates. So before proceeding, we have to understand the difference between the two and how to identify them.

A catalyst is basically a reaction booster to speed up the rate of the reaction and the reaction intermediate is an unstable, temporl species formed from the reactants before getting to the products.

The difference is given as;

Catalysts are present as reactants in the very beginning and products at the end of the reaction.

Intermediates, on the other hand, are not present in the initial reaction but are produced within one of the steps and then consumed within another step.

Following the above, we can deduce that;

Z is a catalyst because it is present as a reactant in the beginning.

ZA2 and A are a reaction intermediates because they are not present in the overall reaction but are produced and consumed in one of the steps.

Correct option is given as;

c. Z is a catalyst, and ZA2 and A are reaction intermediates.

Which compound has the highest boiling point? HF, HI, HBr, HCl, or F2?
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

HF

Explanation:

This concept can be understood from the knowledge of Intermolecular forces of attraction.

Intermolecular bonds are Van der Waals forces which are weak forces of attraction joining non-polar and polar molecules together. They exist in the form of London Dispersion Forces and Dipole-dipole attraction.

An example of Dipole-dipole attraction is the hydrogen bond which is a unique dipole-dipole attraction between polar molecules in which a hydrogen atom is directly joined to a highly electronegative atom such as fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen).

Molecules that possess the characteristics of hydrogen bonding have a higher boiling point. In the given question, only HF undergo hydrogen bond due to the electronegative effect of the fluorine element.

F2 occurs as a weak London dispersion force and it occurs between non-polar molecules.

Active Transport: Moves ions and molecules from lower to higher concentrations using energy.

Passive Transport: Move ions and molecules from high to lower concentrations without using energy.

The main difference is one uses ATP (energy) and the other does not.
