So,
Formate has a resonating double bond.
In molecular orbital theory, the resonating electrons are actually delocalized and are shared between the two oxygens. So the carbon-oxygen bonds can be described as 1.5-bonds (option B). I'm not sure if option C is correct, however, because the likelihood of both delocalized electrons being in the area of one oxygen atom is less than 50%.<span />
Answer:
Final temperature = 28.0 degrees C.
Explanation:
heat absorbed = mass * specific heat * rise in temperature.
The specific heat of water is 4.186 J /g/C so we have the equation
209 = 10 * 4.186 * x where x is the temperature increase
41.86x = 209
= 5 degrees C.
Answer:
ΔH = ΔH₁ + ΔH₂ - ΔH₃
Explanation:
Given that:
1. A → 2B
2. B → C + D
3. E → 2D
Assuming from the corresponding ΔH for process 1, 2 and 3 are ΔH₁, ΔH₂, ΔH₃ respectively.
To estimate the ΔH for the process A → 2C + E
We multiply 2 with equation 2 where (B → C + D)
2B → 2C + 2D ⇒ 2ΔH₂
Also, let's switch equation (3), such that we have,
2D → E -ΔH₃
The summation of all the equation result into :
A → 2C + E
where; ΔH = ΔH₁ + ΔH₂ - ΔH₃
