Why is propionic acid soluble in water

Chemistry
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago
4 0
HSDB and the SRC Physical Properties database database reports that propionic acid has a water solubility of 1000 g/l at 25 °C. Ullmann and Knovel Solvents - A Properties Database reports that propionic acid is miscible in any ratio with water.

During a hot summer, air temperatures along a coastline are higher above the land than they are above the water, even though bot
mars1129 [50]

Over the ocean, the temperature rises much slower, because the water evaporates causing the hot molecules to go into the atmosphere, and the overall temperature of the water doesn't increase much, this causes the area without the water to be much hotter.

If you have an aqueous solution that contains 1.5 moles of hcl, how many moles of ions are in the solution? (a) 1.0, (b) 1.5, (c
Darya [45]

If you have an aqueous solution that contains 1.5 moles of HCl, the number of moles of ions in the solution is 3.0 moles.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Strong acids  </h3>
  • Strong acids are types of acids that undergo complete dissociation to form ions when dissolved in water.
  • Examples of such acids are, HCl, H2SO4 and HNO3
  • Dissociation of HCl

HCl + H₂O ⇔ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

<h3>Weak acids  </h3>
  • Weak acids are types of acids that undergo incomplete dissociation to form ions when dissolved in water.
  • Examples of such acids are acetic acids and formic acids.
  • Dissociation of  acetic acid

H₃COOH ⇔ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺; CH₃COO⁻ is a conjugate base of acetic acid.

<h3>In this case;</h3>
  • HCl which is a strong acid that ionizes completely according to the equation;

HCl + H₂O ⇔ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

  • From the equation, 1 mole of HCl produces 1 mole of H₃O⁺ ions and 1 mole of OH⁻ ions.

Therefore;

1.5 moles of HCl will produce;

= 1.5 moles of H₃O⁺ ions and 1.5 moles of OH⁻ ions.

This gives a total number ions of;

= 1.5 + 1.5

= 3 moles of ions

26 Which process occurs in an operating voltaic cell?(1) Electrical energy is converted to chemical energy.
tia_tia [17]

Answer is: (2) Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy.

An electrochemical cell (voltaic or galvanic cell) is generating electrical energy from chemical reactions.

In galvanic cell, specie (for example zinc and zinc cations) from one half-cell, lose electrons (oxidation) and species from the other half-cell (for example copper and copper cations) gain electrons (reduction).

Oxidation on the zinc anode: Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.

Reduction on the copper cathode: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s).

Lynna [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

            Correct Option-A (Ability to burn skin)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                    When skin tissues are exposed to Acids or Bases a chemical burn occurs as both of these substances are corrosive in nature. These burns occur without providing any heat, results from a very fast reaction, are extremely painful and causes damage to structures present under skin.

                    Option-B is incorrect because Acids taste sour, while, Bases taste bitter.

                    Option-C is incorrect because pH of Acids is less than 7 while, pH of Bases is greater than 7.
