Answer:

(1). The vapor pressure is 91 mmHg at 20°C.

(2). No, benzene will not boil at sea level.

Explanation:

Benzene, C6H6 is an aromatic, liquid compound with with molar mass of 78.11 g/mol and Melting point of 5.5 °C. One of the importance or the uses of benzene is in the making of fibres and plastics.

The vapour pressure of benzene can be gotten from the table showing the vapor pressure of different liquids.

Boiling point can simply be defined as the point or the temperature in which the vapor pressure is the same with the atmospheric pressure.

The atmospheric pressure is 760mmHg, while the vapor pressure at sea level is at the temperature of 15°C which is equal to 71 mmHg( from the table showing the vapor pressure of different liquids).

71 mmHg is not equal to 760 mmHg, thus, at sea level Benzene will not boil.

How do you represent a shared pair of electrons when drawing the Lewis structure of a covalent bond
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: Each pair of shared electrons is a covalent bond which can be represented by a dash.

Explanation:

In a Lewis dot structure, the central atom can share electrons through bonds with the surrounding atoms, and this can look like a dash between the atoms.

To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

  • <em>To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the </em><u>coefficients.</u>

Explanation:

The <em>coefficients</em> of a <em>chemical equation</em> are the numbers that you put in front of each reactant and product. They are used to balance the equation and comply with the law of mass conservation.

By adjusting the coefficients you obtain the relative amounts (moles) of each product and reactant, i.e. the mole ratios.

Here an example.

The first information is what is called a word equation. E.g. nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia:

  • Word equation: hydrogen + nitrogen → ammonia

  • Skeleton equation: H₂ + N₂ → NH₃

        This equation shows the chemical formulae but it is not balanced. The law of mass conservation is not observed.

So, in order to comply with the law of mass conservation you adjust the coefficients as follow.

  • Balanced chemical equation: 3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃

        As you see, it was necessary to modify the coefficients. Now the law of conservation of mass is observed and you get the mole ratios:

  • 3 mol H₂ : 1 mol  N₂ : 2 mol NH₃

A neutral isotope has a mass number of 65 and 36 neutrons. Identify the element symbol of this isotope and determine the number
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Is an isotope of Cu (Copper)

Explanation:

Remember that the mass number will tell you the number of protons and neutrons. If you have the mass number(65) and the number of neutrons (36), you just need to subtract: 65 - 36 = 29 the number or protons.

As this is a neutral isotope, that means that is going to have the same number of protons and electrons, that is 29.
