The chemical formula that represents an aldehyde is C2H4O. The answer is letter C. CH3COOH is a carboxylic acid. C2H5OH is an alcohol and C6H10O5 is an ether. An aldehyde has an alkyl group with a fromyl group attached to it or –CHO.

Answer:

D. $C_2H_4O$

Explanation:

For this case, we have to keep in mind that the structure of the aldehyde has an oxo group (C=O) bonded to a primary carbon. Therefore we have to search for this group in the options given.

For the first option, we have an OH group, so it is an alcohol. For B. we have an acid because the carboxylic acid group is present (COOH). For C. we have a very complex structure in which we have several oxo groups but neither is bonded to a primary carbon. In the last structure, we have the aldehyde group $C_2H_4O$ (see figure).

For the reaction H2(g) + I2(g) 2HI(g), Kc = 50.2 at 445ºC. If [H2] = [I2] = [HI] = 1.75  10-3 M at 445ºC, which one of these st

Answer: C) The concentration of HI will increase as the system approaches equilibrium.

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_c$

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

$H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(g)$

The expression for $Q_c$ is written as:

$Q_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2]^1[I_2]^1}$

$Q_c=\frac{(1.75\times 10^{-3})^2}{(1.75\times 10^{-3})^1\times (1.75\times 10^{-3})^1}$

$Q_c=1.00$

$K_c=50.2$

Thus as $K_{eq}>Q$ , the reaction will shift towards the right i.e. towards the product side.

H2SO4 is added to a large beaker of water. How is the solution different from the original water?

asambeis [7]

When concentrated sulfuric acid, H2SO4(l), is added to water it will form a solution containing hydrogen ions and hydrogen sulfate ions. H2SO4 is a strong acid, but only for the first H+. The remaining HSO4^- is a weak acid. Since it forms an acidic solution, it will change blue litmus to red.
