Answer:

Water has a higher boiling point because the hydrogen bonds that form water molecules are stronger than the Van der Waals interactions among methane molecules, therefor more energy must be provided in order to break the hydrogen bonds and allow the water molecules to escape the liquid state.

The Ka of an acid is 1.3 x 10–7. Based on the Ka and its relationship with Kw, what is the value of Kb?
Solnce55 [7]
Ka x Kb = Kw      Kw = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

(1.3 x 10⁻⁷) x Kb = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴

Kb = ( 1 x 10⁻¹⁴ ) / ( 1.3 x 10⁻⁷)

Kb = 7.7 x 10⁻⁸

Answer D

hope this helps!

Vanadium (II) oxide with Iron (III) oxide results in Vanadium (V) oxide and Iron (II) oxide. Balance this equation
evablogger [386]

Answer:

2VO + 3Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + 6FeO

Explanation:

The skeletal equation for the reaction is given below below:

VO + Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + FeO

We can balance the equation above by doing the following:

There are 2 atoms of V on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of VO as shown below:

2VO + Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + FeO

Now, we have a total of 5 atoms of O on the left and 6 atoms on the right side. We can balance it by putting 3 in front of Fe2O3 and 6 in front of FeO as shown below:

2VO + 3Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + 6FeO

Now, we can see that the equation is balanced

Draw the structural formula of (3e,5e)-2,5-dibromo-3,5-octadiene.
mrs_skeptik [129]

We need draw the structure of (3E,5E)-2,5-dibromo-3,5-octadiene.

The structure is shown below:

The molecule has two double bonds in 3 and 5 position and two Br-atoms attached to 2 and 5 position.

The configuration is 3E and 5E. E configuration indicates cis- isomers where similar groups are in same side with respect to double bonds.
