When chemists convert ethene (C2H2) to ethanol (CH3CH2OH), they have a mixture of the two gaseous substances. Why do chemists th

Answer:

to collect liquid ethanol and leave ethene as a gas because ethanol has hydrogen bonds    

Explanation:

The chemist would be lesser than the temperature of the mixture as to collect the liquid ethanol and then leave ethene as a gas since the ethanol is a bond that should be hydrogen. Also -OH that available in the ethanol would be responsible for the hydrogen bonds also it is the main and significant molecular forice

So as per the given situation the above represent the answer

What is the potential energy of your 3 kg puppy that is sitting in the grass in your backyard?
lisov135 [29]

As we know that

P.E. = mgh

where,

P.E. = Potential energy of the object =?

m= mass of object= 3kg

g= acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 ms^-2

h = height between object and animal = 0 m

Then

P.E. = 3× 9.8 × 0 = 0 Joules or 0J

Which represents the balanced nuclear equation for the beta plus decay of C-11?

There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino and in beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.</span>

Determine the reducing agent in the following reaction. Explain your answer. 2 Li(s) + Fe(C2H3O2)2(aq) → 2 LiC2H3O2(aq) + Fe(s)
Brilliant_brown [7]

The reducing agent in the reaction 2Li(s) + Fe(CH₃COO)₂(aq) → 2LiCH₃COO(aq) + Fe(s) is lithium (Li).

The general reaction is:

2Li(s) + Fe(CH₃COO)₂(aq) → 2LiCH₃COO(aq) + Fe(s)   (1)

We can write the above reaction in <u>two reactions</u>, one for oxidation and the other for reduction:

  • Oxidation reaction

Li⁰(s) → Li⁺(aq) + e⁻   (2)

  • Reduction reaction

Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Fe⁰(s)    (3)

We can see that Li⁰ is oxidizing to Li⁺ (by <u>losing</u> one electron) in the lithium acetate (<em>reaction 2</em>) and that Fe²⁺ in iron(II) acetate is reducing to Fe⁰ (by <u>gaining</u> two <em>electrons</em>) (<em>reaction 3</em>).  

We must remember that the reducing agent is the one that will be oxidized by <u>reducing another element</u> and that the oxidizing agent is the one that will be reduced by <u>oxidizing another species</u>.

In reaction (1), the<em> reducing agent</em> is <em>Li</em> (it is oxidizing to Li⁺), and the <em>oxidizing agent </em>is<em> Fe(CH₃COO)₂</em> (it is reducing to Fe⁰).  

Therefore, the reducing agent in reaction (1) is lithium (Li).
