Answer:

D. $2NaBr + Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl + Br_2$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the given set of chemical reactions, it is possible to infer that D. is a categorized as redox due to the following:

Since both chlorine and bromine remain as diatomic gases, their oxidation states in such a form is 0, but as anions with lithium cations they have a charge of - according to the following reaction and half-reactions:

$2NaBr + Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl + Br_2$

$Cl_2^0+2e^-\rightarrow 2Cl ^-\\\\2Br^- \rightarrow Br_2^0+2e^-$

Unlike the other reactions whereas no change in the oxidation states is evidenced.

At a given temperature the vapor pressures of hexane and octane are 183 mmhg and 59.2 mmhg, respectively. Calculate the total va

Bas_tet [7]

Total vapor pressure can be calculated using partial vapor pressures and mole fraction as follows:

$P=X_{A}P_{A}+X_{B}P_{B}$

Here, $X_{A}$ is mole fraction of A, $X_{B}$ is mole fraction of B, $P_{A}$ is partial pressure of A and $P_{B}$ is partial pressure of B.

The mole fraction of A and B are related to each other as follows:

$X_{A}+X_{B}=1$

In this problem, A is hexane and B is octane, mole fraction of hexane is given 0.580 thus, mole fraction of octane can be calculated as follows:

$X_{octane}=1-X_{hexane}=1-0.58=0.42$

Partial pressure of hexane and octane is given 183 mmHg and 59.2 mmHg respectively.

Now, vapor pressure can be calculated as follows:

$P=X_{hexane}P_{hexane}+X_{octane}P_{octane}$

Putting the values,

$P=(0.580)(183 mmHg)+(0.420)(59.2 mmHg)=131 mmHg$

Therefore, total vapor pressure over the solution of hexane and octane is 131 mmHg.

Why does salt dissolve in water?

tigry1 [53]

The water dissolves the salt because the water molecules are able to interact with the salt-forming particles, called ions. When the water Interacts with the trainers of the salt ions, the solid salt crystal structure Suffers breakdown, until the trainers of the salt ions are completely surrounded by water molecules. At this time the salt is fully dissolved by water.

hope this helps!

natima [27]

Answer: 2.7 grams

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

$NaHCO_3(aq)+CH_3COOH(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COONa(aq)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)$

Given: mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 3.4 g

mass of acetic acid = 10.9 g

Mass of reactants = mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate+ mass of acetic acid = 3.4 + 10.9= 14.3 g

Mass of reactants = Mass of products in reaction vessel + mass of carbon dioxide (as it escapes)

Mass of carbon dioxide = 14.3 - 11.6 =2.7 g

Thus the mass of carbon dioxide released during the reaction is 2.7 grams.
