Answer:

In chemistry, a radical is an atom, molecule, or ion that has an unpaired valence electron. With some exceptions, these unpaired electrons make radicals highly chemically reactive. Many radicals spontaneously dimerize. Most organic radicals have short lifetimes.

Most Bic lighters hold 5.0ml of liquified butane (density = 0.60 g/ml). Calculate the minimum size container you would need to "
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Volume of container = 0.0012 m³ or 1.2 L or 1200 ml

Explanation:

Volume of butane = 5.0 ml

density = 0.60 g/ml

Room temperature (T) = 293.15 K

Normal pressure (P) = 1 atm = 101,325 pa

Ideal gas constant (R) = 8.3145 J/mole.K)

volume of container V = ?

Solution

To find out the volume of container we use ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = gas constant

T = temperature

First we find out number of moles

<em>As Mass = density × volume</em>

mass of butane = 0.60 g/ml ×5.0 ml

mass of butane = 3 g

now find out number of moles (n)

n = mass / molar mass

n = 3 g / 58.12 g/mol

n = 0.05 mol

Now put all values in ideal gas equation

<em>PV = nRt</em>

<em>V = nRT/P</em>

V = (0.05 mol × 8.3145 J/mol.K × 293.15 K) ÷ 101,325 pa

V = 121.87 ÷ 101,325 pa

V = 0.0012 m³ OR 1.2 L OR 1200 ml

Colder- moves slower
warmer- moves faster
changes state:
    solid to gas- warmer

Cyanide and water react in a proton transfer reaction to form hydrogen cyanide and hydroxide
alukav5142 [94]

The proton transfer reaction between Cyanide and water can be written as; X^- + H2O -----> HX + OH^-

<h3>What is a proton transfer reaction?</h3>

A proton transfer reaction is one in which a proton is moved from one chemical specie to another.It is in fact and acid - base reaction in the Brownstead - Lowry sense.

The proton transfer reaction between Cyanide and water can be written as(Let the cyanide ion be shown as X);

X^- + H2O -----> HX + OH^-

Carbon has four valence electrons. true false
8090 [49]
The answer is true. One neutral atom of carbon has four valence electrons.
 
An easy way of finding out is to check out the periodic table and look at which main number group the element is in. Carbon is in group number four, which would mean it has four valence electrons.

Hope I was able to help!
