Problem
Which of the following chemical reactions is/are NOT possible according to Dalton's atomic theory?
a. reaction 1: CCl4 → CH4
b. reaction 2: N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
c. reaction 3: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O + Au
Answer:
Le Chatelier's principle can be applied in explaining the results
Explanation:
According to Le Chatelier's principle, when a constraint such as a change in concentration in this case is imposed on a chemical system in equilibrium, the system will adjust itself in such a way as to annul the constraint imposed.
Hence, when the color of the solution was more like that of the control, the reaction would shift towards the left. Similarly, when the color was more like it was towards the reactant, the reaction would shift towards the right.
If we were to prepare calcium oxalate, we should prepare it in a base solution. This is because when the base was added to calcium oxalate, it did not form any precipitate but when an acid was added to the calcium oxalate, it formed a precipitate.
Tap water and rain water are both homogeneous, even though they may have different levels of dissolved minerals and gases. A bottle of alcohol is a man-made homogeneous mixture, from a fine Italian wine to a glass of Scotch whisky. In the human body, blood plasma is an example of a homogeneous mixture.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). 1976 of United States Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) empowers EPA to control the production, transportation, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous waste. The RCRA act was amended in 1984 and 1986 to include Waste minimization along with appropriate disposal (not in the landfill site) and tackling of petroleum hazardous waste respectively along with other waste.
