Based on your observations of 1-tetradecanol when it reformed a solid after melting, does 1-tetradecanol form a crystalline or a

morphous solid? Explain the difference between these two terms as part of your answer.

Answer:

It is a crystalline solid.

It is a white crystalline solid that is practically insoluble in water, soluble in diethyl ether and slightly soluble in ethanol

Explanation:

The difference between crystalline and amorphous is how this chemical compound transmits light.

When a chemical material or compound is said to be crystalline, it is the opposite of what we imagine, since its color is opaque and does not allow light to pass through it, that is why this compound, being crystalline, is opaque white. and if you want to see through it you will not see the other way since it is not "transparent".

On the other hand, amorphous chemical materials or compounds are seen through them from one side to the other, they are considered "transparent" and do not refract any color from the color range of light. That is why they are not opaque either, nor do they have a particular color like white. A clear example of an amorphous structure is glass or crystal.

Which of the following is correct concerning Hess's law?
Margaret [11]
I believe the correct answer would be that t<span>he change in enthalpy can be found by adding the enthalpies of the individual thermochemical reactions of a chemical reaction.</span> In Hess' Law, enthalpy is independent of the mechanism of the reaction. The enthalpy should be the sum of all the changes in the reaction.

The enthalpy of combustion of benzoic acid (C6H5COOH) is commonly used as the standard for calibrating constant-volume bomb calo
Anit [1.1K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

28.96 kJ/°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • Enthalpy change (ΔH) = −3226.7 kJ/mol
  • The reaction is exothermic since the heat change is negative;
  • Mass of benzoic acid = 3.1007 g
  • Temperature change (21.84°C to 24.67°C) = 2.83°C

We are required to find the heat capacity of benzoic acid;

<h3>Step 1: Moles of benzoic acid </h3>

Moles = Mass ÷ molar mass

Molar mass of benzoic = 122.12 g/mol

Therefore;

Moles = 3.1007 g ÷ 122.12 g/mol

          = 0.0254 moles

<h3>Step 2: Determine the specific heat capacity </h3>

Heat change for 1 mole = 3226.7 kJ

Moles of Benzoic acid = 0.0254 moles

But;

Specific heat capacity × ΔT = Moles × Heat change

  cΔT = nΔH

Therefore;

Specific heat capacity,c = nΔH ÷ ΔT

                                     = (3226.7 kJ × 0.0254 moles) ÷ 2.83°C

                                    = 28.96 kJ/°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of benzoic acid is 28.96 kJ/°C

What is the chemical formula of a compound that is composed of the ions Camc007-1.jpg and Brmc007-2.jpg?
AlekseyPX
Calcium ions have oxidation state 2+ => Ca (2+).

Bromime ions (bromide) have oxidation state 1- => Br (-).

So, to be neutral the compound has to have two Br (-) ions per each Ca(2+) ion.

That is represented in the chemical formula as Ca Br2, where the number 2 to the right of Br is a subscript meaning that there are two atoms of Br per each atom of Ca (the lack of subscript means 1 atom).

Answer: Ca Br2.

Determine the number of neutrons in an atom of Rg-272.
IRISSAK [1]
In order to find the number of neutrons in the atom,

you need to calculate the difference between the top and bottom numbers

which means 272 - 111 = 161

Hope this helps
