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

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Dynamic equilibrium in a chemical reaction is the condition in which the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.

Explanation:

Dynamic equilibrium is a chemical equilibrium between froward reaction and backward or reverse reaction where rate of reaction going forwards is equal to the rate of reaction going backward (reverse).  

Some other properties of dynamic equilibrium are:

  • Chemical equilibrium are attained is closed system.
  • The macroscopic remains constant like: volume, pressure, energy etc.
  • The concentration of the reactants and products remain constant.They are not always equal.

What is the coefficient of silver in the final, balanced equation for this reaction?
vekshin1

This is an incomplete question, the complete question is attached below.

Answer : The coefficient of silver in the final, balanced equation for this reaction is, 3

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

The given redox reaction is,

Ag^+(aq)+Al(s)\rightarrow Ag(s)+Al^{3+}(aq)

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : Al\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3e^-

Reduction : Ag^{+}+1e^-\rightarrow Ag

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply the reduction reaction by 3 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

The balanced redox reaction will be,

3Ag^+(aq)+Al(s)\rightarrow 3Ag(s)+Al^{3+}(aq)

From the balanced redox reaction we conclude that, the coefficient of silver in the final balanced equation for this reaction is 3.

Hence, the correct option is 3.
