Answer:
b) It produces electrical current spontaneously.
Explanation:
Cells capable of converting chemical energy to electrical energy and vice versa are termed Electrochemical cells. There are two types of electrochemical cells viz: Galvanic or Voltaic cells and Electrolytic cells. Voltaic cell is an elctrochemical cell capable of generating electrical energy from the chemical reaction occuring in it.
The voltaic cell uses spontaneous reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions to generate ions in a half cell that causes electric currents to flow. An half cell is a part of the galvanic cell where either oxidation or reduction reaction is taking place. Hence, the spontaneous production of electric currents is true about Voltaic/Galvanic cells.
Answer:
Use the Bromotriflouride catalyst, BF₃
Explanation:
The BF₃ is most likely to yield less desired side products. The effect lies in the reaction mechanism.
BF₃ is a Lewis acid. Its role is to promote the ionization of the HF. This is achieved through the electrophilic mechanism. The reaction mechanism is as follows:
2 - methylpropene + H-F-BF₃ → H-F + H₃C + benzene
butylbenzene + F-BF₃ → tert-butylbenzene + H-F + BF₃ (regenerated catalyst)
Answer:
Methane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CH4. It is the main component in natural gas. Methane is considered the simplest of alkanes, compounds that consist only of hydrogen (H) and carbon (C) elements. Methane is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that is lighter than air.
Explanation:
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
8CO₂
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
We are given;
- Butane is a hydrocarbon in the homologous series known as alkane.
We are required to determine the other product produced in the combustion of butane apart from water.
- We know that the complete combustion of alkane yields carbon dioxide and water.
- Therefore, combustion of butane will yield carbon dioxide and water.
- The balanced equation for the complete combustion of butane will be;
2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O
Explanation:
subscript is K
superscript is ^
subscript K means a unit of temperature like F or C
superscript ^ means to the power of
So all together it means to the power of 40 K
