Answer:

A spectator ion is an ion that does not participate in a chemical reaction and is found in a solution before and after a reaction.

Hope this helped :)

Add groups to complete polyvinyl alcohol, formed by the polymerization of the following monomer. If a carbon atom contains only

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The resulting structure is:

R-CH-CH2 (OH)-CH-CH2(OH)-CH-CH2(OH)-CH-...

Explanation:

It can be said that vinyl alcohol cannot be polymerized by addition polymerization, since a very unstable radical would be formed, which is not possible. Generally, it is formed by polymerization and subsequent hydrolysis of the vinyl polyacetate. According to the exercise, the structure that results with its four units can be seen that the hydroxyl groups are found in the methylene carbons

Which of the following reactions could be an elementary reaction? 2 NO2(g) + F2(g) → 2NO2F(g) Rate = k[NO2][F2] H2(g) + Br2(g) →

podryga [215]

Answer: The correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Explanation:

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

For the given reactions:

Equation 1: $2NO_2(g)+F_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2F(g);Rate=k[NO_2][F_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 2 + 1 = 3

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 2: $H_2(g)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2HBr(g);Rate=k[H_2][Br_2]^{1/2}$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = $1+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 3: $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 4: $NO_2(g)+CO(g)\rightarrow NO(g)+CO_2(g);Rate=k[NO_2]^2$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 2 + 0 = 2

In this equation, the order with respect to each reactant is not equal to its stoichiometric coefficient which is represented in the balanced chemical reaction. Hence, this is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

A piece of solid Fe metal is put into an aqueous solution of Cu(NO3)2. Write the net ionic equation for any single-replacement r

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Fe(s) + Cu^2+(aq) ---> Fe^2+(aq) + Cu(s)

Explanation:

The ionic equation shows the actual reaction that took place. It excludes the spectator ions. Spectator ions are ions that do not really participate in the reaction even though they are present in the system.

For the reaction between iron and copper II nitrate, the molecular reaction equation is;

Fe(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)----> Fe(NO3)2(aq) +Cu(s)

Ionically;

Fe(s) + Cu^2+(aq) ---> Fe^2+(aq) + Cu(s)
