Answer:

Common names of ethers simply give the names of the two alkyl groups bonded to oxygen and add the word ether. The current practice is to list the alkyl groups in alphabetical order (t-butyl methyl ether), but older names often list the alkyl groups in increasing order of size (methyl t-butyl ether).

Alika [10]

1. This is a combustion reaction.

Combustion reactions can happen with the presence of O₂ gas. O₂ reacts with another element or compound and oxidize it. Here ethanol reacts with O₂ and produces CO₂ and H₂O as products. Combustion is also called as burning. 

2. Reaction will shift to right. 

If more CH₃CH₂OH is added to the system, then the amount of CH₃CH₂OH will increase. Then the equilibrium in the system will be broken. To make the equilibrium again, the added CH₃CH₂OH should be removed. To do that system will consume more CH₃CH₂OH to make products which helps to decrease the amount of ethanol. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.

3. The reaction will shift to right.

If the water is extracted from the system, the amount of water will decrease. That means the amount of products decrease. Then the system will try to gain equilibrium by increasing the water. To increase water the forward reaction should be enhanced. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.

4. The reaction will shift to right.

This is an exothermic reaction since it produces heat. If the produced heat is removed, then the system will be cold. To maintain the temperature, system has to increase the amount of heat produced. Then, the forward reaction should be enhanced. Hence, the reaction will shift to right.

5. The Le Chatelier's principle.

Le Chatelier's principle says if a condition changes in a system which was in an equilibrium state, the system will try to gain equilibrium by correcting the changed condition back to normal. Most of industries which make chemicals use this principle

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Positive

Explanation:

The antibody screen interpretation is positive. That's because of clump formation when antibody reacts with the antigen and agglutination occurs.

It means that the antibodies were present in the sample that react with the antigen present in the test tube.

Δ H reaction = q / n where q: amount of heat released and n is number of moles of substance.
q = m . C . ΔT where:
m = mass of substance (g)
C = Specific heat capacity (4.18)
ΔT = change in temperature = 24.25 - 23.16 = 1.09
q = 1000 x 4.18 x 1.09 = 4556 J = 4.556 kJ
number of moles (n) = Molarity (M) x Volume (L)
= 0.185 M x 0.07 L = 0.01295 mole
Δ H = q / n = - (4.556 kJ / 0.01295 mole) = -351.8 kJ / mol
Note: it is exothermic reaction (-ve sign) i.e. temperature is raised
