Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.
To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.
-OH is elctron donating -C=-N is electron withdrawing -O-CO-CH3 is electron withdrawing -N(CH3)2 is electron donating -C(CH3)3 is electron donating -CO-O-CH3 is electron withdrawing -CH(CH3)2 is electron donating -NO2 is electrong withdrawing -CH2
Answer: The balanced equation is
Au(s) + 3HNO3(aq) + 4HCl(aq) ---> HAuCl4(aq) + 3NO2(g) +3H2O(l)
The function of HCl in a solution of Aqua regia, that is used to dissolve gold is to dissolve other metals like quartz or iron stone that surround the gold.
Explanation: To balance the equation, we check the ratio of each element in the reacting side and the product side ( left and right hand side). Let their ratio be equal be adding moles to the compound of the element or the element it's self in either side of the equation.
HCl which is called hydrochloric acid, is an acid that does not react with gold, but it react with every other substance, like your skin, metals etc. it is used to clean a gold, by dipping the gold inside it, all the metals on the surface of the gold will dissolve.
When dissolving a gold in aqua regia solution, HCL is added to prepare this solution because it will help to dissolve all other substance on the surface of the gold.
Answer:
The
of the given reaction is -129.6 kJ
Explanation:
The given chemical reaction is as follows.

Enthalpy of each reactant and products are as follows.




In the given chemical reaction involved two C-H bonds in the reactant side and one C-C bond in the product side therefore, the enthalpy of formation will be the negative.



Therefore, The
of the given reaction is -129.6 kJ
