it is either "aweak acid or a lousy (or very weak) acid"
Answer:
yes 4K + O2 ------>2K20 is true.
An atom is the smallest unit of ordinary matter that forms a chemical element.
oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.
Answer:
2.53 L is the volume of H₂ needed
Explanation:
The reaction is: C₁₈H₃₀O₂ + 3H₂ → C₁₈H₃₆O₂
By the way we can say, that 1 mol of linolenic acid reacts with 3 moles of oxygen in order to produce, 1 mol of stearic acid.
By stoichiometry, ratio is 1:3
Let's convert the mass of the linolenic acid to moles:
10.5 g . 1 mol / 278.42 g = 0.0377 moles
We apply a rule of three:
1 mol of linolenic acid needs 3 moles of H₂ to react
Then, 0.0377 moles will react with (0.0377 . 3 )/1 = 0.113 moles of hydrogen
We apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume (condition of measure are STP) → P . V = n . R . T → V = ( n . R .T ) / P
V = (0.113 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273.15K) 1 atm = 2.53 L
