The highest atom economy

2CO + O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The reaction for the production of CO₂

Required

The highest atom economy

Solution

In reactions, there are sometimes unwanted products that can be said to be a by-product or a waste product. Meanwhile, the desired product can be said to be a useful product, which can be shown as the atom economy

of the reaction

the higher the atomic economy value of a reaction, the smaller the waste/ byproducts produced, so that less energy is wasted

The general formula:

Atom economy = (mass of useful product : mass of all reactants/products) x 100

or

Atom economy = (total formula masses of useful product : total formula masses of all reactants/products) x 100

So a reaction that only produces one product will have the highest atomic value, namely the reaction in option C

Given the following equilibrium constants: Kb B(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌ HB+(aq) + OH−(aq) 1/Kw H+(aq) + OH−(aq) ⇌ H2O(l) What is the equi

Answer: The value of $K_c$ for the net reaction is $\frac{K_b}{K_w}$

Explanation:

The given chemical equations follows:

Equation 1: $B(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons HB^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.);K_b$

Equation 2: $H^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(l);\frac{1}{K_w}$

The net equation follows:

$B(aq.)+H^+(aq.)\rightleftharpoons HB^+(aq.);K_c$

As, the net reaction is the result of the addition of first equation and the second equation. So, the equilibrium constant for the net reaction will be the multiplication of first equilibrium constant and the second equilibrium constant.

The value of equilibrium constant for net reaction is:

$K_c=K_1\times K_2$

We are given:

$K_1=K_b$

$K_2=\frac{1}{K_w}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_c=K_b\times \frac{1}{K_w}=\frac{K_b}{K_w}$

Hence, the value of $K_c$ for the net reaction is $\frac{K_b}{K_w}$

A scientist formulates the following hypothesis: If plants of the same species

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Growth rate

Explanation:

The responding variable, also known as the DEPENDENT VARIABLE, is the variable that responds to changes or manipulations made to another variable (independent or manipulable variable) in the experiment. It is the measured variable of an experiment.

According to the hypothesis provided for this investigation, the scientist wants to determine if the amount of fertilizer plants of the same species receive will affect their growth rate when planted in the same condition. This shows that the independent variable is the amount of fertilizer to be used while the RESPONDING VARIABLE OR DEPENDENT VARIABLE is the GROWTH RATE OF THE PLANTS because it responds to the amount of fertilizer.

In general, what is the effect if increased temperature on the solubility of a gas

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Increased temperature causes an increase in kinetic energy. The higher kinetic energy causes more motion in the gas molecules which break intermolecular bonds and escape from solution.
