The mole fraction of cation (Al)=0.4

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

1 M of Aluminium sulphate

Required

The mole fraction of cation

Solution

Ionization of the Aluminum sulfate solution( assume 1 L solution ) :

mol Al₂(SO₄)₃ = M x V = 1 M x 1 L = 1 mol

Al₂(SO₄)₃⇒2Al³⁺ + 3SO₄²⁻

1 mol 2 mol 3 mol

From this equation, total mol in solution = 2+3 = 5 moles

Mol fraction Al(as a cation) :

= 2/5=0.4

Since acids have 1 more proton (H+ - ions) than base, and the acid gives it away, doesn't that mean that they switch roles? Acid

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

In an acid-base equilibrium, acid becomes a conjugate base and base becomes a conjugate acid.

Explanation:

Let's remember the Bronsted-Lowry theory to answer this specific question. According to the theory, acid is a proton donor, while a base is a proton acceptor.

Consider an acid in a form HA (aq) and base in a form of B (aq). Since acid is a proton donor, it will donate its hydrogen ion to the base, B. The resultant products would be $A^{-}$ (aq) and $BH^{+}$ (aq).

Remember that an acid-base reaction is an equilibrium reaction. This means we may also look at this proton transfer reaction from the product side towards the reactants. Summarizing what has been said, we may write the equilibrium as:

$HA (aq) + B (aq)$ ⇄ $BH^{+} (aq) + A^{-} (aq)$

Now acid, HA, donates a proton to become a conjugate base. The conjugate base, if we look from the reverse equation side, is actually a base, since it can accept a proton to become HA. Similarly, B accepts a proton to become a conjugate acid. Looking from the reverse reaction, it can now donate a proton, so in reality we can consider it a base.

To summarize, your logic is correct.

Which isomer of 1-bromo-2-tert-butylcyclohexane reacts faster when refluxed with potassium tert-butoxide?Draw the structure of t

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

The reaction of 1-bromo-2-tert-butylcyclohexane with potassium tert-butoxide is an elimination reaction that occurs by E2 mechanism.

The E2 reaction proceeds faster when the hydrogens are in an antiperiplanar position at an angle of 180 degrees.

This is only attainable in the trans isomer of 1-bromo-2-tert-butylcyclohexane. Hence trans 1-bromo-2-tert-butylcyclohexane reacts faster with potassium tert-butoxide

NARA [144]

Missing question:
A. [3.40 mol Fe2O3 (s) × 26.3 kJ/1 mol Fe2O3 (s)] / 2
B. 3.40 mol Fe2O3 (s) × 26.3 kJ/1 mol Fe2O3 (s) 
C. 26.3 kJ/1 mol Fe2O3 (s) / 3.40 mol Fe2O3 (s) 
D. 26.3 kJ/1 mol Fe2O3 (s) – 3.40 mol Fe2O3 (s).
Answer is: B.
Chemical reaction: Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g);ΔH = + 26.3 kJ.
When one mole of iron(III) oxide reacts 26,3 kJ of energy is required and for 3,2 moles of iron(III) oxide 3,2 times more energy is required.
