Hydrocarbons do not dissolve in concentrated sulfuric acid, but methyl benzoate does. Explain this difference and write an equat

ion showing the ions that are produced.
Chemistry

finlep [7]3 years ago

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

For a substance to dissolve in another, there must be some sort of interaction between the substances.

Recall that like dissolves like. That is, polar substances dissolve polar substances and non polar substances dissolve nonpolar substances.

Hydrocarbons are nonpolar hence they do not dissolve in polar sulphuric acid. Methyl benzoate is polar hence it dissolve in polar sulphuric acid.

The equation showing the ions is depicted in the image attached to this answer.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity

Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago

Explanation:

All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.

Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)

For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1

Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.

Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.

For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.

A balloon filled with 1.22 L of gas at 286 K is heated until the
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: 670K

Explanation:

Given that,

Original volume of gas V1 = 1.22 L

Original temperature T1 = 286 K

New volume V2 = 2.86 L

New temperature T2 = ?

Since volume and temperature are involved while pressure is constant, apply the formula for Charles law

V1/T1 = V2/T2

1.22 L/286 K = 2.86 L/ T2

Cross multiply

1.22 L x T2 = 286 K x 2.86 L

1.22T2 = 817.96

Divide both sides by 1.22

1.22T2/1.22 = 817.96/1.22

T2 = 670.459 K (Round to the nearest whole number as 670 K)

Thus, the temperature of the gas is 670 Kelvin

A certain compound contains 4.0 g of calcium and 7.1 g of chlorine. Its relative molecular mass is 111. Find its empirical and m
Phantasy [73]

Given :

A certain compound contains 4.0 g of calcium and 7.1 g of chlorine.

Its relative molecular mass is 111.

To Find :

Its empirical and molecular formulas.

Solution :

Moles of calcium , n_1=\dfrac{4}{40}=0.1\ moles.

Moles of chlorine , n_2=\dfrac{7.1}{35.45}=0.2\ moles .

The ratio calcium and chlorine is 1 : 2 .

So , the empirical formula is CaCl_2 .

Now , molecular mass of CaCl_2 is :

M=40+(2\times 35.45)\\\\M=110.9\ g

So , n=\dfrac{111}{110.9} \approx1

Therefore , the molecular formula is also CaCl_2 .

Hence , this is the required solution .
