Answer:

1) Hydrolysis

2)Dehydration

3)Dehydration

4)Hydrolysis

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is the chemical breakdown of substances by water and depends on the chemistry, solubility, pH, and the oxidation–reduction (Eh or redox) potential of compound

<em>https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/earth-and-planetary-sciences/hydrolysis</em>

With hydrolysis water will be a reactant, not a product, and is associated with breaking down substances. Hence 1 and 4 being a Hydrolysis reaction.

Dehydration on the other hand, is defined as :

In a dehydration reaction, either a hydroxyl group from one molecule combines with a hydrogen atom from the other molecule, or two hydrogen atoms from one molecule combine with an oxygen atom on the other molecule. In either case, water is released, and the two molecules are joined together.

Therefore it is associated with creating a bond of sorts, and water is a product, which is why 2 and 3 are dehydration.

Hope this helps!

Match each gas law with the correct statement.

Serhud [2]

The correct match are as follows:

Boyles Law is about a gas at constant temperature. Therefore, the correct match would be the volume of a gas varies inversely with pressure if the temperature is kept constant.

Charles Law would be that the volume of a gas varies directly with temperature if the pressure is kept constant.

Gay-lussac's law would be that the pressure of a gas varies directly with temperature if the volume is kept constant.

Which of the following statements best explains why the atomic radius increases from top to bottom of the periodic table? A. The

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

D. For the atoms lower in the periodic table, the valence electrons are in higher energy levels and farther from the nucleus.

Explanation:

Atomic radius increases down the group because down the group, there an increase in the number of principle energy levels occupied. Now, these higher principal energy levels are made up of orbitals that are larger than the orbitals from the lower energy levels in size.

Therefore, the effect of this is that the greater number of principal energy levels will outweigh the increase in nuclear charge since nuclear charge also increases down the group and this in turn makes the atomic radius to increase as we go down the group.

Why does a chemical reaction occur turning 2 substances that are harmful into a necessary one for life,salt?

coldgirl [10]

Let's assume you are talking about sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). The pH of NOH is very high, and toxic because human body pHs are balanced at slightly above 7, which is the middle range of the pH scale. HCL has a very low pH. But when combined, these compounds neutralize eachother, and produce H2O and NaCl, water and salt. A balance is formed between the strong Acid and strong Base to create 2 neutral compounds.
