Answer:

Potassium chloride > Butanol >Propane > Ethane

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent and it is likely to dissolve polar molecules.

KCl is ionic in nature and is completely polar and the solubility of the salt, potassium chloride is the highest.

Butanol can form hydrogen bonding with the water despite having a carbon chain. Thus, butanol will be at second.

Taking about, ethane and propane, both are non polar and least likely to dissolve in water. But, the extent of the London forces increases with the increase in the molecular weight. So, propane will dissolve faster than ethane.

The order is:

Potassium chloride > Butanol >Propane > Ethane

<span>In this case you are given the molecular formula Hg₂(NO₃)₂. Since, the ratio of the atoms of Hg, N, and O is 2: 2: 6, respectively, the same ratio is expressed if you divide by the greatest common factor (GCF).

</span><span>
</span><span>The GCF of 2, 2, and 6 is 2. So, the ratios can be simplified to 1:1:3, meaning 1 mol of Hg, 1 mol of N, and 3 mol of O or HgNO₃.</span>

If the enthalpy change of a reaction in a flask is δh = +67 kj, what can be said about the reaction?
ziro4ka [17]
Answer : Normally in any chemical reaction, if the enthalpy change i.e. ΔH is positive which means it is greater than zero then it can be called as an Endothermic Reaction.

Whereas, the system under study is absorbing heat that is produced during the reaction. So if  ΔH  is found to be positive then it can be called as endothermic reaction.

The rate constant for the second-order reaction: 2NOBr(g) → 2NO(g) + Br2(g) is 0.80/(M · s) at 10°C. Starting with a concentrati
a_sh-v [17]

Answer : The concentration of NOBr after 95 s is, 0.013 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)

where,

k = rate constant = 0.80M^{-1}s^{-1}

t = time taken  = 95 s

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

[A]_o = Initial concentration = 0.86 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

0.80=\frac{1}{95}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.86)}\right)

[A] = 0.013 M

Hence, the concentration of NOBr after 95 s is, 0.013 M
