Heroin was originally going to be called "wunderlich", a German word for wonderful, since one chemist thought the substance made

him feel wonderful. However, the substance was named heroin because it made another chemist feel:

Answer:

heroic

Explanation:

Bayer, a German pharmaceutical company, named the substance it synthesized "heroin", probably from the word heroisch, German for heroic, because in field studies people using the medicine felt "heroic".

BTW, I found this information on this wedsite: https://www.answers.com/Q/Where_did_heroin_get_its_name

Also, if you want some more history about this drug, you can visit this article: https://www.narconon.org/drug-information/heroin-history.html

when carbon dioxide is bubbled through lime water the solution first turn milky and to colour less . Explain why these changes o
Annette [7]

Answer:

When excess of carbon dioxide is passed in lime water, calcium carbonate is converted to calcium bicarbonate which is soluble, hence the milkiness due to calcium carbonate disappears.

Explanation:

Ca(OH)2+CO2 → CaCO3 (Milkiness) ↓+H2O

CaCO3+H2O+CO2 → Ca(HCO3)2 (soluble)

The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always:_________
sattari [20]

Answer: The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

Explanation:

Electrolytic cells use electric currents to drive a non-spontaneous reaction forward.

Relation of standard free energy change and emf of cell

\Delta G^o=-nFE^0_{cell}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard free energy change

  n= no of electrons gained or lost

F= faraday's constant

E^0_{cell} = standard emf

E^0_{cell}   = standard emf = -ve  , for non spontaneous reaction

Thus  \Delta G^o=(-ve)(-ve)=+ve

Thus standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

4. Chemical formula, mg (Cl0₃)2
grin007 [14]

Answer:

0.017mole

0.0033M

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Formula of the compound:

           Mg(ClO₃)₂

Mass of the sample  = 3.24g

Unknown:

Number of moles of the sample = ?

Molarity  = ?

Solution:

The number of moles of any substance is given as:

   Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

 Molar mass of Mg(ClO₃)₂  = 24 + 2[35.5 + 3(16)]  = 191g/mol

    Number of moles  = \frac{3.24}{191}   = 0.017mole

Molarity is the number of moles of a solute in a solution:

    Molarity  = \frac{number of moles }{volume}  

 Volume given  = 5.08L

  Molarity  = \frac{0.017}{5.08}  = 0.0033M
