<h2>The answers are CH_3O and HSO_4</h2>

Explanation:

Given -

a) The molecular formula of ethylene glycol -

    C_2H_6O_2

∴ The empirical formula of ethylene glycol will be -

    CH_3O

Given -

b) The molecular formula of per-oxo-disulfuric acid (a compound used in bleaching agents) -

    H_2S_2O_8

∴ The empirical formula of per-oxo-disulfuric acid will be -

    HSO_4

Hence, the answers are CH_3O and HSO_4.

Calculate the rate constant at 200.°C for a reaction that has a rate constant of 8.30 × 10−4 s−1 at 90.°C and an activation ener
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

23.0 s⁻¹ is rate constant

Explanation:

Using the Arrhenius equation:

k = A * e^(-Ea/RT)

Where k is rate constant

A is frequency factor (1.5x10¹¹s⁻¹)

Ea is activation energy = 55800J/mol

R is gas constant (8.314J/molK)

And T is absolute temperature (24°C + 273 = 297K)

Replacing:

k = 1.5x10¹¹s⁻¹ * e^(-55800J/mol/8.314J/molK*297K)

k = 1.5x10¹¹s⁻¹ * 1.53x10⁻¹⁰

k = 23.0 s⁻¹ is rate constant    i hope this helpsss

Identify each of these substances as acidic, basic, or neutral. pure water, pH = 7.0 lake water, pH = 6.5 baking soda solution,
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

pure water, pH = 7.0 (Neutral)

lake water, pH = 6.5 (Acidic)

baking soda solution, pH = 9 (Alkaline)

soapy water, pH = 12 (Alkaline)

Explanation:

The degree of acidicity or alkalinity of a solution can be determined on a pH meter. A pH below 7 is acidic; a pH of 7 is neutral; a pH value of above 7 is alkaline.

What are the missing coefficents for the following equation? __N2+__H2-&gt;__NH3
vivado [14]

Answer:

1, 3, 2

Explanation:

N2 + H2 → NH3

I usually find that the best way to systematically balance an equation by inspection is to start with the most complicated-looking formula and then balance atoms in the order:

  1. All atoms other than O and H
  2. O
  3. H

(a) The most complicated formula is NH3.

(b) Balance N.

We have 1 H in NH3, but 2 N on the left. We need 2 N on the right. Put a 1 in front of N2 and a 2 in front of NH3.

1N2 + H2 → 2NH3

(c) Balance H.

We have fixed 6 H on the right, so we need 6 H on the left. Put a 3 in front of H2.

1N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

The equation is now balanced, and the coefficients are 1, 3, 2.

Three elements are represented by the letters A, B, and C. the three elements have the same number of valence electrons. Element
AfilCa [17]
Answer:
A- beryllium
B- calcium
C- magnesium

Explanation
NOTE: all element in group 2 have 2 balance electrons

First let’s start with B- number of electrons= number of protons which is equal to the atomic number. therefore, the answer is calcium as it’s atomic number is 20

C- magnesium will have three energy levels considering it has 12 electrons (2,8,2).

A- beryllium is the lightest one in group 2 as it has the atomic mass of 9.0122.
