% error = \frac{|experimental - theoretical|}{theoretical} x 100%

Experimental: 2.85
Actual (theoretical): 2.70

% error = \frac{2.85-2.70}{2.70} x 100% = .055555 x 100% = 5.56%

Which of the following should have the largest Henry's law constant (kH) in water?XeCl2COCO2CH3CH3
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

CO

Explanation:

Henry's law constant reflects the solubility of a gas in water. The larger the kH, the more soluble is the gas. There is a rule that states that "like dissolves like", meaning polar is soluble in polar and nonpolar is soluble in nonpolar. Since water is polar, we have to consider the nature of these gases.

<em>Xe</em> nonpolar

<em>Cl₂</em> nonpolar

<em>CO</em> polar

<em>CO₂</em> nonpolar

<em>CH₃CH₃</em> nonpolar

CO is the only polar gas, so it has the largest kH.

From the given reactions, which process represents the bond dissociation?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The correct option is: Br₂--------->2 Br(g)

Explanation:

Bond dissociation is a process in which energy is applied to break a chemical bond between the atoms of a molecule to give free atoms.

In the given reaction: Br₂-------->2 Br(g)

The covalent bond in Br₂ molecule dissociates to give two moles of bromine atoms. Therefore, it is a bond dissociation reaction.

An ice cube tray full of water is put into a freezer. Which energy change occurs in the particles in the water as it undergoes a
o-na [289]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

increase in energy - hotter and/or more reactive

decrease in energy - colder and/or less reactive

Since it is going from a liquid to solid it will have a tighter arrangement of particles.
