What is neutralisation-acid and base?

1 answer:

5 0

A neutralization reaction is when an acid and a base react to form water and a salt and involves the combination of H+ ions and OH- ions to generate water .
Eg :- HCl + NaOH --> NaCl + H2O

There are always attractive forces between a collection of atoms or molecules which may not be negligible as suggested by the ki

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Negligible

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of gases, the degree of intermolecular interaction between gases is minimal and gas molecules tend to spread out and fill up the volume of the container.

If the attraction between gas molecules increases, then the volume of the gas decreases accordingly. This is because, gas molecules become highly attracted to each other.

This intermolecular attractive force may be so strong, such that the actual volume of the gas become negligible compared to the volume of the container.

What is the stoichiometric coefficient for oxygen when the following equation is balanced using the lowest whole-number coeffici

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Option (B) 7

Explanation:

C3H6O2(l) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)

To know the coefficient of O2 in the above equation, let us balance the equation.

The above equation can be balance as follow:

C3H6O2(l) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)

There are 3 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of CO2 as shown below:

C3H6O2(l) + O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + H2O(l)

There are 6 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of H2O as shown below:

C3H6O2(l) + O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)

There are a total of 4 atoms of O on the left side and a total of 9 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 7/2 in front of O2 as show below:

C3H6O2(l) + 7/2O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)

Multiply through by 2

2C3H6O2(l) + 7O2(g) → 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l)

Now, the equation is balanced.

From the balanced equation above, the coefficient of O2 is 7.
