Determine whether each phrase describes carboxylic acids or esters.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Carboxylic acids produce hydrogen bonds amongst themselves and possess lower vapor pressure. They generally possess a sour odor. When an acid and a base react with each other to produce salt and water and comprises the combination of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, the reaction is termed the neutralization reaction. Thus, when carboxylic acid reacts with base the reaction is termed neutralization.

On the other hand, esters are known for their pleasant fragrances. They do not produce hydrogen bonds amongst themselves and possess higher vapor pressure. A hydration reaction in which free hydroxide dissociates the ester bonds between the glycerol and fatty acids of a triglyceride, leading to the formation of free fatty acids and glycerol is termed saponification.

Thus, the given blanks can be filled with carboxylic acid, carboxylic acid, esters, esters, esters, and carboxylic acid.

A gas occupies a volume of 50.0 mL at 100K and 630 mmHg. At what temperature would
rodikova [14]
PV / T = P'V' / T'

V = V'

P / T = P' / T'

P = 630 mmHg
T = 100 K
P' = 1760 mmHg
T' = ?

630 / 100 = 1760 / T'

T' = 1760 / 6,3

T' = 279,36 K

T' ≈ 280 K

Which of the following chemical formula show an iconic compound
BaLLatris [955]
This question comes with this list of answer choices:

<span>A. CO₂

B.N₂O

C.NaCl

</span><span> D.C₆H₁₂O₆
</span>

Answer: option C.NaCl

Justification.

1) When two diferent elements join together chemically they can form either a covalent bond or a ionic bond.

2) When the bonds are covalents the compound is called covalent, when the bonds are ionics the compound is called ionic.

3) To predict whether the compound is ionic or covalent, you must see the electronegativities of the elements.

4) Ionic compounds require the formation of ions, a posititve ion and a negative ion. The positive ion is formed when the element loses one or more electrons. The negative ion is formed when the element gains one or more electrons.

Then, in the formation of a ionic compound it is implicit the exchange of electrons (one element gains the electrons that the other lose) and this is possible, when the difference in electronegativities are high enough.

5) So, you must look at the electronegativities to make your prediction. In the given options, the compounds of the options A, B and D are between non-metals. Then, you can predict that their electronegativities are not as much differet as to form ions. They will form covalent bonds.


6) Being sodium and chloride a metal and non-metal, you can expect that their electronegativities differ quite enough to form the ionic bond (this is not true for any pair of non-metal and metal elements, but being them the only pair of metal - non metal elements, this is the only option).

This leads to the conclusion that the NaCl formula shows an ionic compound, and is the answer.

How many moles are in 98.3 grams of aluminum hydroxide, Al(OH)3?
Musya8 [376]
We have to calculate the molar mass of  AL(OH)₃
Atomic mass (Al)=27 amu
Atomic mass (O)=16 amu
Atomic mass (H)=1 amu

molecular weight= 27 amu+3(16 amu + 1 amu) =78 amu.

Therefore, the molar mass of Al (OH)₃ is 78 g/ mol

Now, we calculate the number of moles in 98.3 g of aluminum hydroxide.

78 g-------------------1 mol
98.3 g-----------------  x

x=(98.3 g * 1 mol) / 78 g=1.26 moles.

Answer: 1.26 moles.
