creativ13 [48]

Answer:

a)  After the balloon inflated after 440 uL of dropwise due to the reaction of 1-Decene and the solution in the conical vial. b) 4NaBH_{4} + 2HCl + 7H_{2}O ⇒ 16H_{2(g)}+ 2NaCl + Na_{2}B_{4}O_{7} c) No H_{2} was not the limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Generally, hydrogenation is the chemical reaction between a compound or element and molecular hydrogen in the presence of catalysts such as platinum.

a) After the balloon inflated after 440 uL of dropwise 1-Decene solution was added due to the reaction between 1-Decene and the solution in the conical vial.

b)  4NaBH_{4} + 2HCl + 7H_{2}O ⇒ 16H_{2(g)}+ 2NaCl + Na_{2}B_{4}O_{7}

c) H_{2} was not the limiting reactant based on the mol to mol ratio of H_{2} and decane which is 1:1. Therefore, if 0.8 mol of decane was produced then 0.8 mol of H_{2} would also be produced.
