Explanation:

Ammonium lauryl sulfate (ALS) is the common name for ammonium dodecyl sulfate (CH3(CH2)10CH2OSO3NH4). The anion consists of a nonpolar hydrocarbon chain and a polar sulfate end group. The combination of nonpolar and polar groups confers surfactant properties to the anion: it facilitates the dissolution of both polar and non-polar materials. ALS is classified as a sulfate ester. It is found primarily in shampoos and body wash as a foaming agent. Lauryl sulfates are very high-foam surfactants that disrupt the surface tension of water in part by forming micelles at the surface-air interface.

In the reaction between a crushed antacid tablet and vinegar what gas is emitted
Pachacha [2.7K]

The answer is: emitted gas is carbon dioxide (CO₂).

Neutralization is is reaction in which an acid (in this example vinegar or acetic acid CH₃COOH) and a base (in this example soda)

Balanced chemical reaction of vinegar and antacid:

CH₃COOH(aq) + NaHCO₃(aq) → CH₃COONa(aq) + H₂O(l) + CO₂(g).

Sodium acetate (CH₃COONa) is a salt.

Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) is an antacid. Sodium bicarbonate is the active ingredient in baking soda.

Which solution has the lowest freezing point?
Leokris [45]
<span>Correct Answer: Option 3 i.e. 30 g of KI dissolved in 100 g of water.

Reason:
Depression in freezing point is a colligative property and it is directly proportional to molality of solution.

Molality of solution is mathematically expressed as,
Molality = </span>\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Weight of solvent (Kg)}}<span>

In case of option 1 and 2, molality of solution is 0.602 m. For option 3, molality of solution is 1.807 m, while in case of option 4, molality of solution is 1.205 m.

<u><em>Thus, second solution (option 2) has highest concentration (in terms of molality). Hence, it will have lowest freezing point</em></u></span>

4 Al + 3 O2 --&gt; 2 Al2O3
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.4 moles of Aluminum

Explanation:

Data

moles of Al = ?

moles of Al₂O₃ = 3.7

Balanced chemical reaction

                4 Al  +  3 O₂  ⇒  2 Al₂O₃

To solve this problem use proportions and cross multiplication. Use the coefficients of the balanced chemical equation.

                4 moles of Aluminum ----------------- 2 moles of Al₂O₃

                 x                                  ----------------- 3.7 moles of Al₂O₃

                            x = (3.7 x 4) / 2

                            x = 14.8 / 2

                            x = 7.4 moles of Aluminum
