With that informatio you can:

1) Write the chemical equation
2) Balance the chemical equation
3) State the molar ratios
4) Predict if precipitation occurs.

I will do all four, for you:

1) Chemical equation:

mercury(I) nitrate  potassium bromide    mercury(I) bromide  potassium nitrate
<span>Hg2(NO3)2             +        KBr                   → Hg2Br2          +      KNO<span>3

2) Balanced chemical equation
</span></span>
<span>Hg2(NO3)2 + 2KBr → Hg2Br2 + 2KNO<span>3

3) Molar ratios or proportions:

1 mol </span></span><span>Hg2(NO3)2 : 2 mol KBr : 1 mol Hg2Br2 : 2 mol KNO<span>3

4) Prediction of precipitation.

You can use the solubility rules or a table of solubilities. I found in a table of solutiblities that mercury(I) bromide is insoluble and potassium bromide is soluble, Then you can predict that the precipitation of mercury(I) bromide will occur.

Draw all four products obtained when 2-ethyl-3-methyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene is treated with HBr at room temperature and show the me
LenKa [72]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case we have reaction of addition. In this case a diene reacting with an acid as HBr. This reaction is known as Hydrohalogenation, and, as we have a diene, this kind of reaction can be done as 1,4 addition. Which means that the reaction will be undergoing with an adition in the carbon 1, and carbon 4.

At room temperature we can expect that this reaction can be done in thermodynamic conditions, Now, as the problem states that is forming 4 products, we can expect products of a 1,2 addition too. This product can be formed if the reaction is taking place in the most stable carbocation, and then, by resonance, we can expect the 1,4 product too.

Now, the HBr can be attacked by the double bond of the first position, giving two possible products or by the double bond of the third position giving the other two products. These products are all possible, obviously the most stable will be the major of all of them, but the other three are perfectly possible. One product is formed without doing much, and the other by resonance. Same happens with the other double bond.

In the picture below, you have the mechanism for all the 4 products.

Hope this helps

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

C₃H₈(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ⇒ + 10 H₂(g) + 3 CO₂(g)

Explanation:

Propane can be turned into hydrogen by the two-step reforming process.

In the first step, propane and water react to form carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The balanced chemical equation is:

C₃H₈(g) + 3 H₂O(g) ⇒ 3 CO(g) + 7 H₂(g)

In the second step, carbon monoxide and water react to form hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The balanced chemical equation is:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇒ H₂(g) + CO₂(g)

In order to get the net chemical equation for the overall process, we have to multiply the second step by 3 and add it to the first step. Then, we cancel what is repeated.

C₃H₈(g) + 3 H₂O(g) + 3 CO(g) + 3 H₂O(g) ⇒ 3 CO(g) + 7 H₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) + 3 CO₂(g)

C₃H₈(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ⇒ + 10 H₂(g) + 3 CO₂(g)
