Answer:

Option d. is correct

Explanation:

Nitromethane is an organic compound that can be used as a fuel booster in rockets. Its chemical formula is CH_3NO_2.

This compound is produced as a result of reaction of sodium chloroacetate with sodium nitrite in aqueous solution.

The electron-dot structure of a nitromethane molecule shows +1 charge on the nitrogen.

Option d. is correct

Which statement regarding liquids is true? 1.can be converted to solids by adding energy in the form of heat 2.occupy a definite
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

4.occupy a definite volume while taking the shape of their container.

Explanation:

Since the particles in a liquid are quite close together (not as close as a solid) they have a definete volume,  and the particles are still able to move around as they wish they have no definite shape and take upon the shape of the container they are placed in.

Suppose that some FeSCN2+ is added to the above solution to shift the equilibrium. When equilibrium is re-established, the follo
kiruha [24]

Explanation:

The given reaction equation will be as follows.

          [FeSCN^{2+}] \rightleftharpoons [Fe^{3+}] + [SCN^{-}]

Let is assume that at equilibrium the concentrations of given species are as follows.

        [Fe^{3+}] = 8.17 \times 10^{-3} M

        [SCN^{-}] = 8.60 \times 10^{-3} M

        [FeSCN^{2+}] = 6.25 \times 10^{-2} M

Now, first calculate the value of K_{eq} as follows.

     K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

              = \frac{8.17 \times 10^{-3} \times 8.60 \times 10^{-3}}{6.25 \times 10^{-2}}

              = 11.24 \times 10^{-4}

Now, according to the concentration values at the re-established equilibrium the value for [FeSCN^{2+}] will be calculated as follows.

             K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

        11.24 \times 10^{-4} = \frac{8.12 \times 10^{-3} \times 7.84 \times 10^{-3}}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

         [FeSCN^{2+}] = 5.66 \times 10^{-2} M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of [FeSCN^{2+}] in the new equilibrium mixture is 5.66 \times 10^{-2} M.

Isotope Atomic Mass (amu) Percent Abundance
exis [7]

Answer:

The average atomic mass is closer to Si- 28 because this isotope is present in more percentage in the sample.

Explanation:

Given data:

Atomic mass of silicon= ?

Percent abundance of Si-28 = 92.21%

Atomic mass of Si-28 = 27.98 amu

Percent abundance of Si-29 = 4.70%

Atomic mass of  Si-29 = 28.98 amu

Percent abundance of Si-30 = 3.09%

Atomic mass of  Si-30 = 29.97 amu

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)+(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass = (92.21×27.98)+(4.70×28.98)+(3.09×29.97) /100

Average atomic mass =  2580.04 +136.21+92.61 / 100

Average atomic mass = 2808.86 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 28.08amu.

The average atomic mass is closer to Si- 28 because this isotope is present in more percentage in the sample.
