Why is methanol written as ch3oh instead of ch4o?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: Here comes the role of another formula, which we refer to as the structural formula and that is CH3OH for methanol. The structural formula gives us an additional information that carbon is attached to three hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

Potassium iodide reacts with lead(II) nitrate in this precipitation reaction: 2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → 2 KNO3(aq) + PbI2(s) Wha

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a. 174 mL

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) → 2 KNO₃(aq) + PbI₂(s)

We have 155.0 mL of a 0.112 M lead(II) nitrate solution. The moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ are:

0.1550 L × 0.112 mol/L = 0.0174 mol

The molar ratio of KI to Pb(NO₃)₂ is 2:1. The moles of KI are:

2 × 0.0174 mol = 0.0348 mol

The volume of a 0.200 M KI solution that contains 0.0348 moles is:

0.0348 mol × (1 L / 0.200 mol) = 0.174 L = 174 mL

How do minerals affect igneous rock formations?

wariber [46]

Mineral composition affects the classification of igneous rock. in simplified classification, igneous to is are classified by the type of feldspar present, by the I type a of feldspar present, or the absence of quartz. in case of neither present, then by the type of iron or magnesium present.

Explain your reasoning. Match each explanation to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

A (I_2(g), Br_2 (g), Cl_2 (g), F_2 (B): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 5. molar mass decreases.

B (H_2O_2 (g), H_2S(g), H_2O(g): The ranking can best be explained by the decreases a trend entropy decreases as 3. molar mass and structure complexity decreases.

C. (C(s, amorphous), C(s, graphite), C(s, diamond): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 4. structure complexity decreases.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we can understand a higher entropy when more disorder is present and a lower entropy when less disorder is present, thus:

A (I_2(g), Br_2 (g), Cl_2 (g), F_2 (B): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 5. molar mass decreases since iodine has the greatest molar mass (254 g/mol) and fluorine the least molar mass (38 g/mol).

B (H_2O_2 (g), H_2S(g), H_2O(g): The ranking can best be explained by the decreases a trend entropy decreases as 3. molar mass and structure complexity decreases since hydrogen peroxide weights 34 g/mol as well as hydrogen sulfide but the peroxide has more bonds (more complex, higher entropy).

C. (C(s, amorphous), C(s, graphite), C(s, diamond): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 4. structure complexity decreases since diamond has a well-ordered structure and amorphous carbon has a very disordered one.

Best regards.

Based on your graph in the Periodic Trends Lab, what is the relationship between atomic radius and ionization energy ?

maxonik [38]

As the atomic radius decreases, it becomes harder to remove an electron that is closer to a more positively charged nucleus. ... They experience a weaker attraction to the positive charge of the nucleus. Ionization energy increases from left to right in a period and decreases from top to bottom in a group.

What happened as Leah and Isaac moved down the small slope from point C to D?

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As you move down anything, towards the earth, (gravitational) potential energy decreases. This eliminates options B and C.

By the law of conservation of energy, the energy of the system stays the same. However the energy may be converted into different forms. In this case, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy - this is what makes people move faster as they go down the slope. This makes option A wrong and option D right.
