Answer:
Phenols do not exhibit the same pka values as other alcohols;
They are generally more acidic.
Using the knowledge that hydrogen acidity is directly related to the stability of the anion formed, explain why phenol is more acidic than cyclohexane.
Explanation:
According to Bromsted=Lowry acid-base theory,
an acid is a substance that can release
ions when dissolved in water.
So, acid is a proton donor.
If the conjugate base of an acid is more stable then, that acid is a strong acid.
In the case of phenol,
the phenoxide ion formed is stabilized by resonance.

The resonance in phenoxide ion is shown below:
Whereas in the case of cyclohexanol resonance is not possible.
So, cyclohexanol is a weak acid compared to phenol.
Oxygen is a chemical element with symbol O and atomic number 8. Classified as a nonmetal, Oxygen is a gas at room temperature.
Answer:
Mass = 8.46 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of water produced = ?
Mass of glucose = 20 g
Mass of oxygen = 15 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6H₂O + 6CO₂
Number of moles of glucose:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 20 g/ 180.16 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.11 mol
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 15 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.47 mol
now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and glucose.
C₆H₁₂O₆ : H₂O
1 : 6
0.11 : 6/1×0.11 = 0.66
O₂ : H₂O
6 : 6
0.47 : 0.47
Less number of moles of water are produced by oxygen thus it will limit the yield of water and act as limiting reactant.
Mass of water produced:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.47 mol ×18 g/mol
Mass = 8.46 g
That wouod be the ionosphere!

Explanation:
A reaction in which heat and light are produced is a combustion reaction. Combustion is said to have occurred when a substance is burnt in oxygen.
The balanced equation of the reaction is;
4Li(s) + O2(g) ------->2Li2O(s)
This reaction is exothermic because heat was produced. The reaction has a low activation energy as the metal easily burst into flames in oxygen. A catalyst is not needed in this reaction because it has a low activation energy.
According to the law of conservation of mass. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. What this means is that in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side must be the same as the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side.
