Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Fischer esterification is a type of reaction used  to convert carboxylic acids to ester in the presence of excess alcohol and a strong acid which acts as a catalyst. Another final product formed in the reaction is water.

The mechanism for the fischer esterification of Benzoic acid and  C H 3 O H in the presence of HCl as the catalyst is shown in the image attached to this answer.

The final products of the reaction are methyl benzoate, water and H^+ as shown in the image attached.

Given that a for HCN is 6. 2×10^−10 at 25 °C. What is the value of b for cn− at 25 °C?
Kay [80]

If Ka for HCN is 6. 2×10^−10 at 25 °C, then the value of Kb for cn− at 25 °C is 1.6 × 10^(-5).

<h3>What is base dissociation constant? </h3><h3 />

The base dissociation constant (Kb) is defined as the measurement of the ions which base can dissociate or dissolve in the aqueous solution. The greater the value of base dissociation constant greater will be its basicity an strength.

The dissociation reaction of hydrogen cyanide can be given as

HCN --- (H+) + (CN-)

Given,

The value of Ka for HCN is 6.2× 10^(-10)

The correlation between base dissociation constant and acid dissociation constant is

Kw = Ka × Kb

Kw = 10^(-14)

Substituting values of Ka and Kw,

Kb = 10^(-14) /{6.2×10^(-10) }

= 1.6× 10^(-5)

Thus, the value of base dissociation constant at 25°C is 1.6 × 10^(-5).

Classify each of these reactions. A single reaction may fit more than one classification. Ba ( ClO 3 ) 2 ⟶ BaCl 2 + 3 O 2 Ba(ClO
Lena [83]

Answer: a) Ba(ClO_3)_2\rightarrow BaCl_2+3O_2:  Decomposition

b) NaNO_2+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HNO_2: double displacement

c) CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3: Synthesis (Combination)

d) ZnSO_4+Mg\rightarrow MgSO_4+Zn: redox

Explanation:

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products.

Ba(ClO_3)_2\rightarrow BaCl_2+3O_2

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place.

NaNO_2+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HNO_2

Synthesis reaction is a chemical reaction in which two reactants are combining to form one product.

CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3

Redox reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which oxidation and reduction takes place in one single reaction. The oxidation number of one element increases and the oxidation number of other element decreases.

ZnSO_4+Mg\rightarrow MgSO_4+Zn

The reaction of Pb+4 and O-2 produces the compound of
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Pb₂O₄

                               

Explanation:

The given species are:

        Pb⁴⁺               O²⁻  

Now, to solve this problem, we use the combining powers which corresponds to the number of electrons usually lost or gained or shared by atoms during the course of a chemical combination.

                                          Pb⁴⁺               O²⁻  

Combining power               4                    2

Exchange of valencies        2                    4

Now the molecular formula is  Pb₂O₄

Calculate the ratio of the velocity of helium atoms to the velocity of neon atoms at the same temperature.
o-na [289]

Answer:

vHe / vNe = 2.24

Explanation:

To obtain the velocity of an ideal gas you must use the formula:

v = √3RT / √M

Where R is gas constant (8.314 kgm²/s²molK); T is temperature and M is molar mass of the gas (4x10⁻³kg/mol for helium and 20,18x10⁻³ kg/mol for neon). Thus:

vHe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

The ratio is:

vHe / vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol / √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

vHe / vNe = √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

<em>vHe / vNe = 2.24</em>

<em />

I hope it helps!
