Answer:

Hi, no structure in the question was given to the answer the question.

Explanation:

Certain molecules or groups, when attached to an organic compound can make it become more acidic or less acidic. These groups are classified into 2

Electron withdrawing groups e.g the halogens F, Cl, Br and I. Fluorine is the best withdrawing group, next to chlorine and the least Iodine.
Electron donating groups e.g Alkyls and Phenyl groups

Electron withdrawing groups makes the carboxylic more acidic. Also, the closer the electron withdrawing groups to the proton in the acid also makes the acid more acidic. This electron withdrawing group allows the electron density around the oxygen atom to be decreased.

Electron donating group makes the carboxylic acid less acidic. The more alkyl groups in a carboxylic acid, the less acidic the acid becomes. This allows the electron density around the oxygen atom in to be increased.

How many mmoles of each ion are present in 448 mL of a 0.0840 M solution of K2Cr2O7?

kari74 [83]

Answer:

mmoles of potassium ion = 75.264 mmoles

mmoles of dichromate ion = 37.632 mmoles

Explanation:

Considering:-

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

$Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

For $K_2Cr_2O_7$ :

Molarity = 0.0840 M

Volume = 448 mL

The mmoles of $K_2Cr_2O_7$ are;-

$Moles =0.0840 \times 448\ mmoles=37.632\ mmoles$

In 1 mmole of $K_2Cr_2O_7$ , 2 mmoles of potassium ion and 1 mmole of dichromate ion is present.

In 37.632 mmole of $K_2Cr_2O_7$ , 2*37.632 mmoles of potassium ion and 1*37.632 mmole of dichromate ion is present.

mmoles of potassium ion = 75.264 mmoles

mmoles of dichromate ion = 37.632 mmoles

10) Explain what arsenic had to do with preserving bodies in the past and how that related to Sylvester’s body. Tell me how the

Salsk061 [2.6K]

10) Arsenic is a chemical agent which was used in preserving dead bodies in the past. It is mainly a formaldehyde mixture with coloring agents to give a dead body the look of life. Sylvester was a third mummy that was embalmed with arsenic in the late 1800s and is now on exhibit at Ye Olde Curiosity Shop in Seattle, Washington. His mummified body showed an extremely unusual since the remains weighed approximately 80 lbs when a body is composed of 70-80% water, after dehydration, the weight should be about 20-30% the premortem weight. The solution was also used during Civil War to preserve dead bodies as the dead were being shipped home from the battlefield.

9) Research can yield dates when certain plants/animals became domesticated and entered the standard diets of people, meaning you would not see masses eating beef before the cow became domesticated. To further this you can look at when a specific food was introduced into the diets of people in the geographic area of the person you are studying.

What volume will 30 g of carbon monoxide, CO, fill at STP?

hjlf

Answer:

24dm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of CO = 30g

Unknown:

Volume of CO at STP = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the number of moles of CO in the given mass.

Number of moles of CO = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

Molar mass of CO = 12 + 16 = 28g/mol

Number of moles = $\frac{30}{28}$ = 1.07moles

Now;

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4dm³ volume at STP

1.07moles will occupy 1.07 x 22.4 = 24dm³
