Some people rinse their freshly shampooed hair in diluted lemon juice or vinegar. Why is this done?​
zzz [600]

Answer:

the citric acid in lemon juice is a natural bleach, or oxidizing agent. It whitens hair by chemically reducing your hair's color pigment, or melanin. When exposed to the sun, the citric acid accelerates the bleaching process

Predict the sign of the entropy change,Delta S, for each of the following reactions:The signs are either going to be pos or nega
algol [13]

Answer: a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s):  negative

b)  CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g) : positive

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g): positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s) : negative

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g):  positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g) : positive.

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)

As ions are moving to solid form , randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

b) CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

As 2 moles of reactants are converted to 4 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s)

As gas is changing to solid, randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

As 7 moles of reactants are converted to 8 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

what is the molecular formula of a compound that contains 38% c, 45% n and 16% h if 0.157 g of the compound occupies 125 ml with
EastWind [94]

The molecular formula of the given compound is CH₅N.

<h3>What is the ideal gas equation?</h3>

The ideal gas law has defined the product of the volume and pressure as equal to the product of the gas constant (R) and absolute temperature of the gas.

The mathematical equation of the ideal gas law is as follows:

PV = nRT

The temperature of the compound, T =  22° C = 295 K

The pressure of the compound, P = 99.5 KPa = 0.982 atm

The volume of the compound, V = 125 ml = 0.125 L

0.125 × 0.982 = (0.157 g/M) × 0.082 ×295

M = 31 g/mol

A number of moles of C = 0.157 ×0.37/12  = 0.00484

A number of moles of N = 0.157 ×0.45/14  = 0.00504

A number of moles of H = 0.157 ×0.16/1  = 0.0251

The simplest ratio of C: N: H is 1 : 1 : 5

The empirical formula of the given compound is CH₅N.

The molecular formula of the compound is CH₅N as the molecular mass is equal to 31 g/mol.
