Answer:
C) H⁺
Explanation:
When we are balancing the reaction<em> in an acid medium</em>, hydrogen is balanced using the <u>H⁺</u> species. This is most likely the intended answer of your question.
When the reaction takes place not in an acid medium, but in <em>an alkaline one</em>, then hydrogen is present as the OH⁻ species. However this option is not given in your question.
Thus the answer is option C).
Am letting the picture doing the talk.
Answer:
The nucleus of an atom consists of Protons and Neutrons.-A.
Gases, unlike solids and liquids, have neither fixed volume nor shape. They are molded entirely by the container in which they are held.
Answer: C. ethanol
The enthalpy of combustion is the amount of heat produced when one mole of ethanol undergoes complete combustion at 25 ° C and 1 atmosphere pressure, yielding products also at 25 ° C and 1 atm.
<u>The enthalpy of combustion of the unknown compound is</u>
ΔH = - 320 kJ / 0.25 mol = - 1280 kJ / mol
<u>To choose a probable compound according to this combustion enthalpy, we must evaluate the deviation in relation to the values reported in the literature for the three probable compounds</u> (methane, ethylene and ethanol). The deviation (e%) will be calculated according to the following equation,
e% = ( | ΔHx - ΔH | / ΔHx ) x 100%
where ΔHx is the enthalpy of combustion of the probable compound.
The following table shows the combustion enthalpies of the probable compounds and their deviation in relation to the enthalpy of ΔH = - 1280 kJ / mol
Compound Enthalpy of combustion (kJ/mol) Deviation
Methane - 890.7 43.8%
Ehylene -1411.2 9.3%
Ethanol -1368.6 6.5%
According to the previous table, we can say that the most probable compound is ethanol, since it has the smallest deviation in relation to the experimental enthalpy value of combustion.
