Answers:

    c. oxygen gas

    d. chlorine gas

    e. hydrogen gas


Justification:


Single displacement reactions are those reactions in which the atoms of one element substitute (replace or displace) the atoms of other element in a compound.


The representación of this ind of reactions is:

  • A + BX → AX + B: the atoms of the element A displace the atoms of the element B in the compound BX. As result, the element B stands separated after the reaction.

The conditions for a single displacemente reactions are:

  • One single element react with a compound
  • The reactant single element will form part of a new compound
  • One single element is removed from the compound
  • The one single element removed from the compound stands as a separated product.
  • It is a more active element displaces a less active element from the compound.

In the giiven statement, the element displaced will be as a gaseous product.


Ammonia is not a single element, but the compound with the formula NH₃, so it is not the result of a single displacement reaction, and it is not a possibility (discarded)


Air is not either a single element nor a compound, so it is not the result of a single displacemente reaction, and it is not a possibility (discarded).


Since oxygen is one of the most reactive non-metal elements, oxygen gas is usually the result of a decomposition reaction and not of a single displacement reaction.


Decomposition reactions are those in which a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances (elements and/or compounds). Some examples of decompositon reaction in which oxygen gas evolves as a product are:


  • The decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen gases.
  • The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to form oxygen gas and water.
  • The decomposition of solid potassium chlorate to form solid potassum chloride and oxygen gas.

Nevertheless, fluorine is more active than oxygen, and so it can oxidises water according to this single replacement reaction:

  • 2F₂ + 2H₂O → 4HF + O₂↑

As you see, fluorine displaces oxygen, so this is one of the right choices.


Regarding chlorine, being it less active than fluorine (fluorine is the most active halogen and the most active gas) you can predict without doubt that it can be displaced by flouorine. And so, chloringe gas is a right choice too.


The evolution hydrogen gas is a typical example of single displacement reactions and can be seen in this example:

  • 2Li(s) + 2H₂O → 2LiOH + H₂(g)↑

Hence, hydrogen gas is one of the right options.


Conclusion: we have tested the choices one by one and the result is that the possibilities of the composition of those gas bubbles are:

   c.oxygen gas

    d.chlorine gas

    e. hydrogen gas

"acid is responsible for the odor in rancid butter. a solution of 0.25 m butyric acid has a ph of 2.71. what is the ka for"
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:- The Ka for the acid is 1.53*10^-^5 .

Solution:- In general, monoprotic acid could be represented by HA. The dissociation equation for the ionization of HA is written as:

HA(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)

Now, we make the ice table for this equation as:

HA(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)

I 0.25 0 0

C -X +X +X

E (0.25 - X) X X

where, I stands for initial concentration, C stands for change in concentration and E stands for equilibrium concentration.

X is the change in concentration and from ice table it's same as the concentration of hydrogen ion that is calculated from given pH.

Ka = [H^+][A^-]\frac{1}{HA}

Where, Ka is the acid ionization constant. Let's plug in the values.

Ka = \frac{X^2}{0.25-X}

Let's calculate the value of X first using the equation:

pH = -log[H^+][/tex]

on taking antilog ob above equation we get:

[H^+]=10^-^p^H

[H^+]=10^-^2^.^7^1

[H^+] = 0.00195

So, X = 0.001195

Let's plug in this value of X in the equation:-

Ka=\frac{(0.00195)^2}{0.25-0.00195}

Ka=1.53*10^-^5

So, the value of Ka for butyric acid is 1.53*10^-^5 .

Explain what would happen to the air temperature at Riverdale School over the course of the
monitta

Answer:

Air temperature increases.

Explanation:

The air temperature at Riverdale School increases if the groundwater system were used because this system uses very huge amount of water than the other system. By using more molecules having the same temperature, the thing with more molecules has more total kinetic energy or thermal energy than the thing with fewer molecules so that's why air temperature of the school is increases.

Wich has a larger percent by mass of sulfur - H2SO or H2S7O8?
Pie

Answer:

Explanation:

H2SO4 let S be x

2(1) + x + 4(-2) = 0

2 + x - 8 = 0

x - 6 = 0

x = 6

For H2S7O8 let S be x

2(1) + 7(x) + 8(-2) = 0

2 + 7x - 16 = 0

7x - 14 = 0

7x = 14

x = 14/7

x = 2

:- H2SO4 as the larger percentage

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

A. Whatever is in the water, it moves. Even if a block is placed in there, it would move by sinking to the bottom. If a plastic bag was placed in there, it wouldn't sink but move a little.
