Answer:

I) 1 mol of SO3(g)

2) 1 mol of CO2(g)

3) 3 mol of O2(g)

4) 1 mol of KBr(aq)

5) Seawater at 23°C

6) 1 mol of CCl4(g)

Explanation:

In molecules having greater numbers of atoms, there is an increase the number of ways by which the molecule vibrates thereby leading to a higher number of possible microstates and overall increase in entropy of the system. Hence, 1 mol of SO3(g) has a higher entropy than 1 mol of SO2.

Gases have a higher entropy than liquids and liquids have a higher entropy than gases.

Also, the greater the molecular weight of a molecule, the higher the entropy. Higher number of moles of a gas as well as the increase in temperature of a substance are also factors that lead to higher entropy.

Ethanoic acid, CH3COOH, ionizes to form an ethanoate ion (CH3COO-) in aqueous solution. what else does it form? is it a monoprot

barxatty [35]

Ethanoic acid ionizes in aqueous solutions to form two ions which are $CH_3COO^-$ and $H^+$

<h3>Ionization of ethanoic acid</h3>

Ethanoic acid goes by the chemical formula $CH_3COOH$ .

In aqueous solutions, it ionizes as a monoprotic acid according to the following equation:

$CH_3COOH ---- > CH_3COO^- + H^+$

A monoprotic acid is an acid that is able to donate only a proton. Hence, ethanoic acid is said to be monoprotic because it ionizes in aqueous solutions to produce a single $H^+$

Why do we need to standardize EDTA in determination of water hardness?

bonufazy [111]

Standardized means that a specific amount EDTA is added to a specific volume of distilled water. Water hardness is determined by the the amount of a standard EDTA solution to change the color of the water from red to blue. For example if one added the correct amount of EDTA to twice the volume of distilled water the solution would be weak. Titration of the hard water would give a erroneous high result.

A reaction was performed in which 4.0 g of cyclohexanol was reacted with an acid catalyst to obtain 2.8 g of cyclohexene. calcul

ioda

Answer:

%age Yield = 85.36 %

Solution:

The Balance Chemical Reaction is as follow,

C₆H₁₂O + Acid Catalyst → C₆H₁₀ + Acid Catalyst + H₂O

According to Equation ,

100 g (1 mole) C₆H₁₂O produces = 82 g (1 moles) of C₆H₁₀

So,

4.0 g of C₆H₁₂O will produce = X g of C₆H₁₀

Solving for X,

X = (4.0 g × 82 g) ÷ 100 g

X = 3.28 g of C₆H₁₀ (Theoretical Yield)

As we know,

%age Yield = (Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100

%age Yield = (2.8 g ÷ 3.28 g) × 100

%age Yield = 85.36 %
