<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
H2O -Bronsted Acid
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Bronsted-Lowry acids are H+ donors
, while Bronsted-Lowry bases are H+ acceptors
.
- A reaction of a Bronsted-Lowry acid and a Bronsted base is a neutralization reaction that is characterized by H+ transfer.
- The above reaction is an example of base ionization or dissociation where;
B (aq) + H2O (l) → BH+ (aq) + OH– (aq)
That is; Base + Acid will give a conjugate acid + hydroxide ion
- In our case; NO2- + H2O → HNO2 + OH- ; H2O is the H+ donor and thus, it is a Bronsted Acid.
Alcohols have higher boiling points than do ethers and alkanes of similar molar masses.
<h3>What is meant by Boiling Point ?</h3>
The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid is called the boiling point of the substance.
Approximately boiling point of Ethanol: 78.4°C, ether: 34.6°C, ethanes: 68°C
The reason for the difference is that it takes more energy to separate alcohol molecules then it does to separate alkane molecules and ether molecules.
The OH group in alcohol allows molecules to engage in hydrogen bonding.
Therefore Boiling point are in the order ;
Alcohol > alkane > ethers

2 Na + 2 H2O → 2 NaOH + H2 (balanced equation)
The answer would be 2, since 2 in the coefficient of both Na and NaOH
It would be A, the molecules should be closely packed together but arranged randomly. :)
