Explain how an element that does not react easily with other elements can be useful.

Chemistry

BaLLatris [955]4 years ago

Elements that are unreactive can be useful for 'isolating' other volatile elements. For example, an element may be highly reactive with oxygen, so keeping it in air is not a safe option. In such cases, it may be useful to have a noble gas to store the element safely and ensure its stability. It may also have a purpose in experiments where it may act as a controlling agent or a container for the other reactions.

How do you test oxygen​
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The glowing splint test is a test for an oxidizing gas, such as oxygen. In this test, a splint is lit, allowed to burn for a few seconds, then blown out by mouth or by shaking. Whilst the ember at the tip is still glowing hot, the splint is introduced to the gas sample that has been trapped in a vessel. Oxygen supports combustion so a good method of testing for oxygen is to take a glowing splint and place it in a sample of gas, if it re-ignites the gas is oxygen. This is a simple but effective test for oxygen.

Answer:

True

Ammonia reacts as a nucleophile with alkyl halides to give primary amines in a nucleophilic substitution reaction. Yields are often poor as the product, a primary amine, RNH2, is itself a nucleophile and can react with more alkyl

A nitrile is a compound that contains a –CN (cyano) functional group with a carbon-nitrogen triple bond. The simplest organic nitrile is CH3–CN and is called acetonitrile, which is a good solvent for organic reactions. ... Structurally diverse nitrile-containing compounds are present in many medicinal drugs.

Calculate ΔSrxn∘ for the reaction
Yanka [14]

The entropy of the reaction can be calculated alike the enthalpy of the reaction which is equal to the difference between the summation of entropies of the products multiplied by their corresponding stoich coeff. and the summation of the entropies of the reactants multiplied by their corresponding stoich coeff. In this case, the answer is -146.8 J / mol K

To convert liters of CO2 to moles of CO2, what conversion factor would it be?
MArishka [77]

22.4L.

This is because the standard conversion factor for Liters is 22.4 and in the question it explicitly states liters of CO2.

Therefore, in order to convert Liters of CO2 to Moles of CO2, you'd need to use the conversion factor of 22.4.

Hope this helps!
