Answer:

m_{Cd(OH)_2}=36.6 gCd(OH)_2

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, in order to compute the grams of cadmium hydroxide that would be yielded, we must first identify the limiting reactant by computing the yielded moles of that same product, by 20.0 grams of NaOH (molar mass = 40 g/mol) and by 0.750 L of the 1.00-M solution of cadmium nitrate as shown below considering the 1:2:1 mole ratios respectively:

n_{Cd(OH)_2}^{by\ NaOH}=20.0gNaOH*\frac{1molNaOH}{40gNaOH} *\frac{1molCd(OH)_2}{2molNaOH} =0.25molCd(OH)_2\\\\n_{Cd(OH)_2}^{by\ Cd(NO_3)_2}=0.750L*1.00\frac{molCd(NO_3)_2}{L}*\frac{1molCd(OH)_2}{1molCd(NO_3)_2}  =0.75molCd(OH)_2

Thus, since 20.0 grams of NaOH yielded less of moles of cadmium hydroxide, NaOH is the limiting reactant, therefore the mass of cadmium hydroxide (molar mass = 146.4 g/mol) is:

m_{Cd(OH)_2}=0.25molCd(OH)_2*\frac{146.4gCd(OH)_2}{1molCd(OH)_2} \\\\m_{Cd(OH)_2}=36.6 gCd(OH)_2

Best regards.

Explain how boiling and evaporating are alike and how they are differant
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The main difference between evaporation and boiling are : 1. Evaporation takes place at all temperatures, while boiling occurs at a particular temperature. 2. Evaporation takes place from the surface, whereas the entire liquid boils. 3. Evaporation can occur using the internal energy of the system, while boiling requires an external source of heat.

Cyclopropane is more reactive than most cycloalkanes. What factors lead to cyclopropane being less stable than the other cycloal
maw [93]

Answer: The factor that lead to cyclopropane being less stable than the other cycloalkanes is the presence of a RING STRAIN.

Explanation:

In organic chemistry, the end carbon atoms of an open aliphatic chain can join together to form a closed system or ring to form cycloalkanes. Such compounds are known as cyclic compounds. Examples include cyclopropane, cyclobutane, cyclopentane and many among others.

Cyclopropane is less stable than other cycloalkanes mentioned above because of the presence of ring strain in its structural arrangement. The ring strain is the spatial orientation of atoms of the cycloalkane compounds which tend to give off a very high and non favourable energy. The release of heat energy which is stored in the bonds and molecules cause the ring to be UNSTABLE and REACTIVE.

The presence of the ring strain affects mainly the structures and the conformational function of the smaller cycloalkanes. cyclopropane, which is the smallest cycloalkane than the rest mentioned above, contains only 3 carbons with a small ring.

Imagine that you are observing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in lab. every time you add more enzyme, the reaction rate increases
tester [92]

Enzymes catalyze the chemical reactions, they act upon the reaction substrates and speed up the reaction. Enzymes have active sites, the places where the reaction substrates interact with the enzyme bringing about the conversion of substrates to products. So, as the enzyme concentration increases the rate of reaction increases till a point where the rate is leveled off. The rate does not further increase, as the substrate might have become limiting at that point. All the available amount of substrate would have been associated with the active sites of the enzymes. So, at that point although there is enough catalyst, lack of substrate would limit the rate of reaction.
