Answer:

32.7 g of Zn

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Zn + 2HCl —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Zn reacted to produce 1 mole of H₂

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Zn required to produce 0.5 mole of H₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Zn reacted to produce 1 mole of H₂.

Therefore, 0.5 mole of Zn will also react to produce to 0.5 mole of H₂.

Thus, 0.5 mole of Zn is required.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.5 mole of Zn. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of Zn = 0.5 mole

Molar mass of Zn = 65.4 g/mol

Mass of Zn =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Zn = 0.5 × 65.4

Mass of Zn = 32.7 g

Thus, 32.7 g of Zn is required to produce 0.5 mole of H₂.

On the addition of HI

victus00 [196]

Answer:

$CH_3-CH(I)-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

$I-CH_2-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

Explanation:

Given the compound $CH_2=CH-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

The steps of reaction:

$HI \longrightarrow H^+ + I^-$

$CH_2=CH-CH(CH_3)-CH_3 + H^+ \longrightarrow CH_3-CH^+-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

<u>But this intermediate product has a resonance: </u>

$CH_3-CH^+-CH(CH_3)-CH_3 \longleftrightarrow C^+H_2-CH2-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

The reaction with I-

$CH_3-CH^+-CH(CH_3)-CH_3 + I^- \longrightarrow CH_3-CH(I)-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

$C^+H_2-CH2-CH(CH_3)-CH_3 + I^- \longrightarrow I-CH_2-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH_3$

How do lawmakers make good environmental decisions??

Sliva [168]

<h2>Answer : By weighing the costs and benefits of an environmental issue </h2><h3> Explanation :</h3>

The law makers usually conduct many studies before a law is imposed. They try to explore many other options available to the current environmental issue and then come to a conclusion to make a law.

They also weigh the cost aspect along with the benefit of the ongoing environmental issue. They try to come up with something which appears to be cost effective and result bearing.
