The liquid soaking the dollar bill is a mix of alcohol and water. As the alcohol burns, the water evaporates. Why doesn't the he

7 0

Answer:

Because heat causes alcohol to volatilize, instead of burning it.

The combustion is not fulfilled since this is detached from the surface of the banknote that would be the necessary product to burn, in addition to considering that the necessary temperature is not reached

Explanation:

When water and alcohol are joined, they form a solution with high evaporation power, plus alcohol that has a higher degree of volatility than water, this is how these liquids are not retained on the surface of the banknote with heat and they are not it burns.

Instead of 6 M NaOH being added to the solution, 6 M HCl is added. How will this affect the test for the presence of ammonium io
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Ammonia gas(an alkaline gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell) is not liberated when 6mole of HCl is added to the solution instead of 6mole of NaOH, to test for the presence of ammonium ion in the solution

Explanation:

As expected, when testing for ammonium ion in a solution (precisely ammonium salt solution), Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is required as the test reagent.

When NaOH is added to the solution, A gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell is liberated.

This gas turn red litmus paper blue.

This liberated gas is an alkaline gas, which is confirmed as an ammonia gas(NH3).

If HCl is added instead of NaOH, the ammonia gas will not be liberated, which indicates that the test reagent used is wrong.

A mixture of helium, nitrogen and oxygen has a total pressure of 821 mmHg. The partial pressure of helium is 105 mmHg, and the p
skad [1K]

Answer:

Total partial pressure, Pt = 821 mm Hg

Partial pressure of Helium, P1 = 105 mm Hg

Partial pressure of Nitrogen, P2 = 312 mm Hg

Partial pressure of Oxygen, P3 = ? mm Hg

According to Dalton's law of Partial pressures,

Pt = P1 + P2 + P3

So, <u>P3 = 404 mm Hg</u>

The indicator propyl red has a Ka of 3.3 X 10-6 . It is red at low pH and yellow at higher pH. What is the approximate pH range
Alik [6]

Answer:

4.48 - 6.48

Explanation:

A pH indicator works in a better way in a range of pH = pKa ± 1. That means we need to determine the pKa of the indicator propyl red to find the range over which it change its color. That is:

pKa = -log Ka

pKa = -log 3.3x10⁻⁶

pKa = 5.48

That means the range over propyl red will change from yellow to red or vice versa is:

4.48 - 6.48
