In at least three sentences, explain three disadvantages associated with hydrogen fuel use.

1 answer:

7 0

Here are some disadvantages, is that nitrogen dioxide is a toxic gas and it can still be harmful when ingested by human, also critics of hydrogen fuel cells argue that although these cells do not emit carbon after burning, they give out nitrogen dioxide and other emissions.

Hope this helps

What do the coefficients located before certain molecules in each chemical equation represent?

olga55 [171]

It represents the number of moles required of that molecule to balance the chemical equation, which means to have the reaction chemically happen and goes to completion.

For example:
CH4 + O2 --> H2O + CO2 that is not balanced

with the coefficients located
CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2 now with the coefficients the number of oxygen and hydrogen on each side are equal

When methyloxirane is treated with HBr, the bromide ion attacks the less substituted position. However, when phenyloxirane is tr

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

See explanation and picture below

Explanation:

First, in the case of methyloxirane (Also known as propilene oxide) the mechanism that is taking place there is something similar to a Sn2 mechanism. Although a Sn2 mechanism is a bimolecular substitution taking place in only step, the mechanism followed here is pretty similar after the first step.

In both cases, the H atom of the HBr goes to the oxygen in the molecule. You'll have a OH⁺ in both. However, in the case of methyloxirane the next step is a Sn2 mechanism step, the bromide ion will go to the less substitued carbon, because the methyl group is exerting a steric hindrance. Not a big one but it has a little effect there, that's why the bromide will rather go to the carbon with more hydrogens. and the final product is formed.

In the case of phenyloxirane, once the OH⁺ is formed, the next step is a Sn1 mechanism. In this case, the bond C - OH⁺ is opened on the side of the phenyl to stabilize the OH. This is because that carbon is more stable than the carbon with no phenyl. (A 3° carbon is more stable than a 2° carbon). Therefore, when this bond opens, the bromide will go there in the next step, and the final product is formed. See picture below for mechanism and products.

The density of a 3.37M MgCl2 (FW = 95.21) is 1.25 g/mL. Calulate the molality, mass/mass percent, and mass/volume percent. So fa

Dafna1 [17]

Answer : The molality, mass/mass percent, and mass/volume percent are, 0.0381 mole/Kg, 25.67 % and 32.086 % respectively.

Solution : Given,

Density of solution = 1.25 g/ml

Molar mass of $MgCl_2$ (solute) = 95.21 g/mole

3.37 M magnesium chloride means that 3.37 gram of magnesium chloride is present in 1 liter of solution.

The volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 ml

Mass of $MgCl_2$ (solute) = 3.37 g

First we have to calculate the mass of solute.

$\text{Mass of }MgCl_2=\text{Moles of }MgCl_2\times \text{Molar mass of }MgCl_2$

$\text{Mass of }MgCl_2=3.37mole\times 95.21g/mole=320.86g$

Now we have to calculate the mass of solution.

$\text{Mass of solution}=\text{Density of solution}\times \text{Volume of solution}=1.25g/ml\times 1000ml=1250g$

Mass of solvent = Mass of solution - Mass of solute = 1250 - 320.86 = 929.14 g

Now we have to calculate the molality of the solution.

$Molality=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent}}=\frac{3.37g\times 1000}{95.21g/mole\times 929.14g}=0.0381mole/Kg$
