Answer:

Baking soda is an alkaline, or base, substance. This means that when we dissolve baking soda in water, it forms an alkaline solution. For example, a 0.1 molar solution of baking soda has a pH of around 8.3. Lemon juice contains citric acid and has a pH of around 3.

Answer:

(3R,4R)-4-bromohexan-3-ol

Explanation:

In this case, we have reaction called halohydrin formation. This is a markovnikov reaction with anti configuration. Therefore the halogen in this case "Br" and the "OH" must have different configurations. Additionally, in this molecule both carbons have the same substitution, so the "OH" can go in any carbon.

Finally, in the product we will have chiral carbons, so we have to find the absolute configuration for each carbon. On carbon 3 we will have an "R" configuration on carbon 4 we will have also an "R" configuration. (See figure 1)

I hope it helps!

What is the final, balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions?

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: Balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions is $Cu + NO^{-}_{3} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O$ .

Explanation:

A chemical equation which contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is called a balanced chemical equation.

For example, $Cu \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + 2e^{-}$

$NO^{-}_{3} + 2e^{-} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O$

On cancelling the common species from both these half-reactions, the complete balanced equation will be as follows.

$Cu + NO^{-}_{3} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O$

Thus, we can conclude that balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions is $Cu + NO^{-}_{3} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O$ .

Four molecules have carbon as the central atom and hydrogen atoms around it. Which shape would give rise to a polar molecule?

zzz [600]

Four molecules have carbon as the central atom and hydrogen atoms around it. The shape that would give rise to a polar molecule is a bent shape. The bent shape will not be symmetrical which will result to being polar. Hope this answers the question.

DerKrebs [107]

If he was the primary scientist doing it as he did alot of the heavy lifting then yes its ok, but i also think how the others should also me at least mentioned. Or they could just not name the experiment by a person just so its not too biased
