Balanced equation is
HBr + NaOH ----> NaBr + H2O
Using molar masses
80.912 g HBr reacts with 39.997 g of Naoh to give 18.007 g water
so 1 gram of NaOH reacts with 2.023 g of HBR
and 5.7 reacts with 11.531 g HBr so we have excess HBr in this reaction
Mass of water produced = (5.7 * 18.007 / 39.997 = 2.6 g to 2 sig figs
D, because C12 means there's 12 atoms of carbon.
Answer:
Hydrogen bonding
Explanation:
As a rule of thumb, "likes dissolve like", meaning polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes in nonpolar solvents. In this case, water is polar (<em>dipolar moment</em> = 1.85 Debye) dissolves methanol which is also polar (<em>dipolar moment</em> = 1.69 Debye). Besides being dipoles, both molecules have atoms of Hydrogen with a covalent bond to more electronegative atoms of Oxygen. When this happens, stronger dipole-dipole interactions appear known as Hydrogen bonding. There is an electrostatic attraction between H (positive charge density) and O (negative charge density).
