CH4 is <u>not</u> soluble in water

whereas CH3OH <u>is</u> soluble in water.

Olin [163]3 years ago

Answer:

CH4 is non polar covalent compound and non polar covalent compounds are insoluble in polar covalent compounds like water.

And CH3OH is soluble in water because it polar and also due to hydrogen bonding.

A chemist wishing to do an experiment requiring 47-Ca2+ (half-life = 4.5 days) needs 5.0 μg of the nuclide. What mass of 47-CaCO
NARA [144]

Answer:

5.8μg

Explanation:

According to the rate or decay law:

N/N₀ = exp(-λt)------------------------------- (1)

Where N = Current quantity,  μg

            N₀ = Original quantity, μg

             λ= Decay constant day⁻¹

              t =  time in days

Since the half life is 4.5 days, we can calculate the  λ from (1) by  substituting N/N₀ = 0.5

0.5 = exp (-4.5λ)

ln 0.5  = -4.5λ

-0.6931 = -4.5λ

λ =   -0.6931 /-4.5

  =0.1540 day⁻¹

Substituting into (1)  we have :

N/N₀ = exp(-0.154t)----------------------------- (2)

To receive 5.0 μg of the nuclide with a delivery time of 24 hours or 1 day:

N = 5.0 μg

N₀ = Unknown

t = 1 day

Substituting into (2) we have

[5/N₀]   = exp (-0.154 x 1)

    5/N₀        = 0.8572

N₀  =  5/0.8572

     =    5.8329μg

    ≈     5.8μg

The Chemist must order 5.8μg  of 47-CaCO3

The chemical shift of the CH3 protons in diethylether is δ = 1.16 and that of the CH2 protons is 3.36. What is the difference in
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Where Blocal = local magnetic field between the two regions of the molecule

Blocal = (1-σ)B0

ΔBlocal = (1-σ1)B0 - (1-σ2)B0 = (σ2 - σ1)B0 = ΔσB0 ≈ ΔδB0 x 10∧-6

= (3.36-1.16) x 10∧-6 x B0 = 2.20 x 10∧-6B0

(a) ΔBlocal = 2.20 x 10∧-6 x 1.9T = 4.2 μT

(b) ΔBlocal = 2.20 x 10∧-6 x 16.5T = 36.3 μT

Oxana [17]
A valid Lewis structure of IF3 cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule.

Answer: IF3 (Iodine Trifluoride)

This is because, I (Iodine) and F (Fluorine) both have odd number of valence electrons (7) which also means that there are too many valence electrons in the valence shell.

How will vinegar slow down the break down of an apple?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Many people take apple cider vinegar before protein-heavy meals to improve digestion. The theory is that apple cider vinegar increases the acidity of your stomach, which helps your body create more pepsin, the enzyme that breaks down protein

Why do atoms tend to be bonded to other atoms?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Atoms are often more stable when bonded to other atoms

Explanation:

Like for example let's say ionic bonds..... Since one atom has to lose specific electrons to be stable and the other needs the electrons from the other atom to be stable.....
