Chloroacetic acid <em>is stronger. </em>

<em>This is because it contains (more electronegative) chlorine atoms in place of (less electronegative) hydrogen atoms.</em>

To answer this question, you will need to write the balanced equation and set up a BCA table. Using appropriate rounding rules,
Elenna [48]

Water decomposes when electrolyzed to produce hydrogen and oxygen gas. If 2.5 grams of water were decomposed 1.04 grams of oxygen will be formed.

BCA table:

2H_{2}O ⇒ H_{2} + O_{2}

B  0.13        0 + 0

C  -0.13      0.065 + 0.065

A  0             0.065

Explanation:

Balanced equation for water decomposition into hydrogen and oxygen gases

   2H_{2}O ⇒ H_{2} + O_{2}

B  0.13        0 + 0

C  -0.13      0.065 + 0.065

A  0             0.065

Number of moles of water = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}

mass = 2.5 grams

atomic mass= 18 grams

number of moles can be known by putting the values in the formula,

n = \frac{2.5}{18}

  = 0.13 moles

2 moles of water gives one mole of oxygen on decomposition

so, 0.13 moles of water will give x moles of oxygen on decompsition

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{x}{0.13}

x = 0.065 moles of oxygen will be formed.

moles to gram will be calculated as

mass =number of moles x atomic mass

        = 0.065 x 16

         = 1.04 grams of oxygen.

If you have the equation
garri49 [273]
Assuming the conditions of the reaction are maintained and appropriate for the reaction to still occur, the reaction rate can be affected by increasing the concentration of the reagents used in a reaction. It will speed it up.

Given that a mass of a ball is (36.0 g), and the volume is (8.0 mL), what is the ball's density in g/mL?​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

4.5g/mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball  = 36g

Volume of the ball  = 8mL

Unknown:

Density of the ball  = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance.

          Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

So;

 Density  = \frac{36}{8}    = 4.5g/mL

What is meant when one says that acetic acid is a stronger acid than benzoic acid?
kozerog [31]

Its the other way around actually. Benzoic acid is stronger than acetic acid because the electron-donating inductive effect (+I) by the alkyl group on acetic acid destabilise the conjugate base of acetic acid.

hope this helps :)

How do I calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction at 25 °C ?
ladessa [460]
MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2 HCl(g) 

Using the standard enthalpies of formation given in the source below: 

(−601.24 kJ) + (2 x −92.30 kJ) − (−641.8 kJ) − (−285.8 kJ) = +141.76 kJ 
So: 

MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2 HCl(g), ΔH = +141.76 kJ
