Answer:
The correct option is: (D) would function as both an acid and a base
Explanation:
A carbon skeleton bonded to a amino group as well as a carboxyl group, will behave as an acid in basic medium and base in acidic medium. This is because the carboxyl group present in the compound will release a proton in basic medium and the amino group will accept a proton in the acidic medium.
<u>Therefore, a carbon skeleton which is covalently bonded to a carboxyl and amino group will behave as both acid and base.</u>
1 Aluminium is oxidised Al - 3e = Al⁺³
2 Chlorine is reduced Cl⁺⁷ + 8e = Cl⁻¹
3 Nitrogen is oxidised 2N⁻³ - 6e = N₂
<u> Increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting </u><u>equilibrium </u><u>to right side.</u>
What is the meaning of OH in chemistry?
The chemical group, ion, or radical OH that consists of one atom of hydrogen and one of oxygen and is neutral or negatively charged.
Hg2(CN)2 + 2OH- ----> 2HgO(s) + 2HCN
adding OH- to the mercury(l) cyanide will cause the formation of the solid HgO.
therefore increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting equilibrium to right side.
