For the following list of acids, rank the acids in strength from weakest acid to strongest acid.

Chemistry
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

CH3OH < FCH2OH < F2CHOH < F3COH

Explanation:

Let us recall that, for a carboxylic acid, the dissociation of the acid yields;

RCOOH ⇄RCOO^- + H^+

The ease of dissociation and release of the hydrogen ion depends on the nature of the group designated R.

When R is is a highly electronegative element, the -I inductive effect causes the hydrogen to become less tightly held by the C-Cl bond.

As the number of electron withdrawing substituents increaseses, the acid ionizes much more and becomes stronger.CH3OH < FCH2OH < F2CHOH < F3COH

Hence, the order of decreasing acid strength is;

Travka [436]

Answer:

contain hereditary information

break down food into energy

Explanation:

Hereditary information is contained in genes and genes are found inside the cell. This implies that the cell contains hereditary information of organisms. This hereditary information is passed on during cell division from parent to daughter cells.

Metabolism occurs in the cells. The cells use oxygen to break down food materials to produce energy.

Describe the benefits and the drawback of natural gas.
Finger [1]

When looking to power your equipment or vehicle with natural gas, the first question that springs to mind is: what is natural gas? A lot of people use natural gas in their homes for cooking and heating, but they don’t really give it some thought. So, let’s see what natural gas is and how it’s different from other forms of fossil fuels like oil and coal.

Natural Gas is a fossil fuel that exist in a gaseous state and is composed mainly of methane (CH4) a small percentage of other hydrocarbons (e.g. ethane). The use of natural gas is becoming more and more popular as it can be used with commercial, industrial, electric power generation and residential applications.

A 25.0 L tank of nitrogen gas is at 25 oC and 2.05 atm . If the temperature stays at 25 oC and the volume is decreased to 14.5 L
NeTakaya

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf P_2 \approx 3.53 \ atm}}

Explanation:

In this problem, the temperature stays constant. The volume and pressure change, so we use Boyle's Law. This states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume. The formula is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Now we can substitute any known values into the formula.

Originally, the gas has a volume of 25.0 liters and a pressure of 2.05 atmospheres.

25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm = P_2V_2

The volume is decreased to 14.5 liters, but the pressure is unknown.

25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm = P_2 * 14.5 \ L

Since we are solving for the new pressure, or P₂, we must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 14.5 liters and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 14.5 L .

\frac {25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 \ L}=\frac{P_2 *14.5 \ L}{14.5 \ L}

\frac {25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 \ L}= P_2

The units of liters cancel.

\frac {25.0  * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 }=P_2

\frac {50.25\  atm }{14.5 }=P_2

3.53448276 \ atm = P_2

The original values of volume and pressure have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same.

For the number we found, that is the hundredth place.

  • 3.53448276

The 4 in the thousandth place (in bold above) tells us to leave the 3 in the hundredth place.

3.53 \ atm \approx P_2

The new pressure is approximately <u>3.53 atmospheres.</u>
