Answer:

Formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding between water molecules and molecules of n-butanol

Explanation:

Low molecular weight alcohols are miscible with water in all proportions. The reason for this is that, when a low molecular weight alcohol is dissolved in water, intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed between the low molecular weight alcohol and water molecules.

Low molecular weight alcohols such as n-butanol contain the polar -OH group which interacts with water via hydrogen bonding.

Lattice energy is ____.
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(B) the energy required to break apart one mole of an ionic compound into its gaseous ions

Explanation:

Lattice energy is the energy that would be obtained from the formation of an ionic compound from its gaseous ions. Therefore, the reverse process that responds the question would be the energy required to break apart an ionic compound and convert its component atoms into gaseous ions.

Lattice energy provides a measure of the stability of an ionic compound. When the ions bind to form the crystalline structure, heat (energy) is released. To break the ionic compound into the ions that form it, it is necessary to provide an energy equal to that released when formed, i.e. the lattice energy.

A scientist notices that a lump of niobium is warm to the touch and wonders if nuclear reactions are taking place in the metal.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer is: Check for the presence of alpha, beta, and gamma particles.

1) Alpha particle is nucleus of a helium-4 atom, which is made of two protons and two neutrons.

Alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four.

2) Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.

There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus.

3) During gamma emission the nucleus emits radiation without changing its composition.

How many moles of O₂ are needed to burn 2.5 moles of CH₃OH?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

3.75 moles

Explanation:

The chemical equation is 2CH₃OH + 3O₂ -> 2CO₂ + 4H₂O

2 moles of CH₃OH are burned by 3 moles of O₂

For 2.5 moles of CH₃OH are burned by x moles of O₂

Let's solve for x :

2*x=2.5*3 => 2*x=7.5 => x=3.75 moles of O₂ are needed to burn 2.5 moles of CH₃OH
