Answer:

D. Gases were released to the atmosphere

Explanation:

In accordance to the law of conservation of mass, the total amount of reactants must equate the total amount of products at the end of the reaction because matter can not be lost or created. However, certain changes like gas evolution, formation of precipitate etc. indicates the occurrence of a chemical reaction.

In a chemical reaction, the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the reactant(s) because GASES, which constituted part of the mass of the reaction, WERE RELEASED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. However, if the mass of the gas released can be accounted for, the amount of reactants and products must balance.

How intermolecular forces are broken during evaporation?
Tanzania [10]

Answer: If the intermolecular forces are weak, then molecules can break out of the solid or liquid more easily into the gas phase. Consider two different liquids, one polar one not, contained in two separate boxes. We would expect the molecules to more easily break away from the bulk for the non-polar case. If the molecules are held tightly together by strong intermolecular forces, few of the molecules will have enough kinetic energy to separate from each other. They will stay in the liquid phase, and the rate of evaporation will be low. ... They will escape from the liquid phase, and the rate of evaporation will be high. To make water evaporate, energy has to be added. The water molecules in the water absorb that energy individually. Due to this absorption of energy the hydrogen bonds connecting water molecules to one another will break.

Hope this helps..... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!! :D

The compound methylamine, CH3NH2, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibrium
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Explanation:

According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:

  • An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
  • A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.

When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.

CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]
