A kinetics experiment is set up to collect the gas that is generated when a sample of chalk, consisting primarily of solid CaCO3

, is added to a solution of ethanoic acid, CH COOH. The rate of reaction between CaCo, and CH3COOH is determined by measuring the volume of gas generated at 25°C and I atm as a function of time. Which of the following experimental conditions is most likely to increase the rate of gas production?
(A) Decreasing the volume of ethanoic acid solution used in the experiment acid solution used in the experiment experiment is performed

(D) Decreasing the particle size of the CacO, by grinding it into a fine powder

Explanation:

To produce more gases by increasing the rate of the chemical reaction, if we grind the chalk into powder, this should walk.

The rate at which chemical reactions takes place is a measure of the speed of  the reaction.

Some factors control the rate of chemical reactions. They are:

  1. Nature of reactants
  2. Concentration of reactants or pressure if gaseous.
  3. Temperature
  4. Presence of a catalyst
  5. Sunlight

The most applicable in this scenario is grinding the chalk into fine powder. This process increases the surface area exposed. Surface area exposed proportionally affects the rate of a reaction.

Which of the reagents listed below would efficiently accomplish the transformation of ethyl-3-pentenoate into 3-penten-1-ol?
Mandarinka [93]
Reactions of Ethyl-3-pentenoate with all given reagents are given below.

Reaction with H₂ / Pd:
                                     
The non-polar double bond present in Ethyl-3-pentenoate is reduced to saturated chain. This reagent can not reduce the carbonyl group.

Reaction with NaBH₄:
                                   Sodium Borohydride is a weak reducing agent at compared to LiAlH₄. It can only reduce aldehydes and Ketones to corresponding alcohols.

Reaction with LiAlH₄:
                                  Lithium Aluminium hydride is a strong reducing agent. It can reduce all types of carbonyl compounds to corresponding alcohols, But, it can not reduce non-polar double bonds like alkenes and alkynes.

Result:
           The correct answer is Option-A (Highlighted RED below).

How many kilograms of gasoline fill a 12.0-gal gas tank
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

29.98kg

Explanation:

12.0 gallons * (3.78541178 liters/gallon) * (1000 mL/liter) * (0.66 g/mL) * (1 kg/1000 g) = 29.98 kg

What is the volume of 43.7 g of helium at stp?
tankabanditka [31]
Answer is: volume of helium is 244.72 liters.
m(He) = 43.7 g.
n(He) = m(He) ÷ M(He).
n(He) = 43.7 g ÷ 4 g/mol.
n(He) = 10.925 mol.
V(He) = n(He) · n(He).
V(He) = 10.925 mol · 22.4 L/mol.
V(He) = 244.72 L.
Vm - molar volume at STP.
n - amount of substance.

In a few sentences, describe the molecular polarity and the intermolecular forces present in ammonium lauryl sulfate.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

A polar molecule is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative. A diatomic molecule that consists of a polar covalent bond, such as HF, is a polar molecule. The two electrically charged regions on either end of the molecule are called poles, similar to a magnet having a north and a south pole. A molecule with two poles is called a dipole. Hydrogen fluoride is a dipole. A simplified way to depict polar molecules is pictured below When placed between oppositely charged plates, polar molecules orient themselves so that their positive ends are closer to the negative plate and their negative ends are closer to the positive plate

Experimental techniques involving electric fields can be used to determine if a certain substance is composed of polar molecules and to measure the degree of polarity.

For molecules with more than two atoms, the molecular geometry must also be taken into account when determining if the molecule is polar or nonpolar. is a comparison between carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a linear molecule. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than the carbon atom, so there are two individual dipoles pointing outward from the C atom to each O atom. However, since the dipoles are of equal strength and are oriented in this way, they cancel each other out, and the overall molecular polarity of CO2 is zero.

Water is a bent molecule because of the two lone pairs on the central oxygen atom. The individual dipoles point from the H atoms toward the O atom. Because of the shape, the dipoles do not cancel each other out, and the water molecule is polar. In the figure, the net dipole is shown in blue and points upward.

Some other molecules are shown below (Figure below). Notice that a tetrahedral molecule such as CH4 is nonpolar. However, if one of the peripheral H atoms is replaced by another atom that has a different electronegativity, the molecule becomes polar. A trigonal planar molecule (BF3) may be nonpolar if all three peripheral atoms are the same, but a trigonal pyramidal molecule (NH3) is polar.
