Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D. Swan received a formal education, while Edison did not.

Explanation:

I did the Unit Test :)

Answer 2

"Thomas Edison: The Master of Improvement,” is about Thomas Edison. Joseph Swan received a formal education, while Thomas Edison did not. Thus, option D is correct.

Who was Thomas Edison?

Thomas Edison was a known American inventor that invented the incandescent light bulb, the camera, phonograph, etc. He used electricity and worked very hard to invent the lightbulb. He received no formal education and believed in self-improvement.

He was a great inventor and fantastic improver that performed various experiments to invent the greatest inventions. Joseph Swan, on the other hand, was a physicist that developed the incandescent light bulb even before Edison.

He invented dry photographic plates and electric lightbulbs. He received proper formal education and sued Edison for the lightbulb patent infringement. He used carbon paper filaments, unlike Edison's metallic filaments in the bulb.

Therefore, in option D. both the scientists, Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison differed in receiving formal education.

Explanation:

Hi! When balancing an equation, you want to make sure that there are equal amounts of each element on both sides. When looking at the equation that you provided in the question, look and count how many of each element are on each side. I can see that there is 1 Mg ion on the left and 1 Mg ion on the right. There are also 2 Cl ions on the left and 2 Cl ions on the right. Because they are already equal, the coefficients in front of each compound will be 1. If the amounts were different on each side, that is when you would need to add different coefficients.

At room temperature (20 °C), milk turns sour in about 64 hours. In a refrigerator at 3 °C, milk can be stored three times as long before it sours.
(a) Estimate the activation energy of the reaction that causes the souring of milk.
(b) How long should it take milk to sour at 40 °C?

Answers

Answer: Since k2 corresponds to 64 hours, the time for the milk to sour at 40 C is 64 h / 9.38 = 6.8 hours.

Explanation:

At temperature T1, the Arrhenius Equation is:

k1 = Ae^(-Ea/RT1).

An equivalent equation can be written at T2:

k2 = Ae^(-Ea/RT2).

If these equations are divided, then A cancels:

k1/k2 = e^(-Ea/RT1)/e^(-Ea/RT2)

Taking the natural log:

ln(k1/k2) = (Ea/RT2)-(Ea/RT1);

or:

ln(k1/k2) = (Ea/R)(1/T2 - 1/T1)

We can infer from the question that the milk sours 3 times as fast at the higher temperature (let's call it T1), so we can arbitrarily call k2 = 1 and k1 = 3.

a) Substitute:

ln(3) =  (Ea/R)(1/276.15 K - 1/293.15 K).

We get Ea/R = 5231.6. Multiply this by whatever value of R you choose to get Ea in your favorite energy unit. Remember the sig figs.

b) Again, let's let the lower temperature = T2, since we have defined k2 = 1:

ln(k1) = (5231.6)(1/276.15 K - 1/313.15);

ln(k1) = 2.24, so k1 = 9.38.

Since k2 corresponds to 64 hours, the time for the milk to sour at 40 C is 64 h / 9.38 = 6.8 hours.

hydrogen sulphide and water molecules have the same shape. however the bond angle in water is greater than the bond angle in hydrogen sulphide. explain this​

Answers

Answer:

Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur

Explanation:

Bond angle of a molecule is related to the electronegativity of the central atom. The more electronegative the central atom is, the greater the bond angle.

As electronegativity of the central atom increases, the magnitude of bond pair- bond pair repulsion increases leading to increase in bond angle.

Hence, oxygen, being more electronegative than sulphur asserts a greater bond pair- bond pair repulsion leading to a greater bond angle in water.

a) Calculate the standard reaction entropy for the combustion of methane to carbon dioxide and liquid water at 298 K. b) Calculate the standard reaction entropy for the hydrolysis of liquid water to form oxygen and hydrogen gas. c) Do your results in (a) and (b) agree with the general rule that reaction entropies are positive if there is a net formation of gas in a reaction, and negative if the is a net reduction of gas?

Answers

Answer: (a) [tex]\Delta S^{0}[/tex] = - 242.2J/K.mol

              (b) [tex]\Delta S^{0}[/tex] = 163.34J/K.mol

              (c) Yes

Explanation: Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. Standard Entropy has the symbol [tex]S^{0}[/tex].

Mathematically, Entropy is defined as

[tex]\Delta S^{0}=\Sigma S^{0}(products)-\Sigma S^{0}(reagents)[/tex]

Each substance has its own entropy value.

(a) Combustion of Methane:

[tex]CH_{4}+2O_{2}[/tex] ⇒ [tex]CO_{2}+2H_{2}O[/tex]

Using standard entropy table, entropy will be:

[tex]\Sigma S^{0}(products)=214+2(69.91)[/tex] = 353.8

[tex]\Sigma S^{0}=186.264+2(205.138)[/tex] = 596.54

[tex]\Delta S^{0}=[/tex] 353.8 - 596.54

[tex]\Delta S^{0}=[/tex] - 242.2

Standard Entropy for combustion of methane is [tex]\Delta S^{0}=[/tex] - 242.2 J/K.mol.

(b) Hydrolysis of Water:

[tex]H_{2}O_{(l)}[/tex] ⇒ [tex]H_{2}_{(g)}+1/2O_{2}_{(g)}[/tex]

[tex]\Sigma S^{0}(products)=130.684+0.5(205.138)[/tex] = 233.253

[tex]\Sigma S^{0}(reagents)=69.91[/tex]

[tex]\Delta S^{0}=[/tex] 233.253 - 69.91

[tex]\Delta S^{0}=[/tex] +163.34

Standard Entropy for hydrolysis of water is [tex]\Delta S^{0}=[/tex] + 163.34 J/K.mol

(c) Yes, the results prove the general rule: Reactions Entropies are positive for net formation of gas and negative for net reduction of gas. This happens because, as entropy is the measure of disorder, the entropy for gases are greater than for liquids and solids. So, when there is formation of a gas, Entropy increases and when there isn't, entropy decreases.

Which statement describes a physical change? *
A. An iron bolt on a bridge rusts and weakens the bridge.
B. The surface of a silver cup turns black when it is exposed to air.
C. A sculptor casts a statue in molten bronze and allows it to harden.
D. Slivers of magnesium in fireworks form a bright glow as they burn.

Answers

B. The surface of a silver cup turns black when it is exposed to air.

The statement that describes a physical change is a sculptor casts a statue in molten bronze and allows it to harden. The correct option is C.

What are physical changes?

"A physical change is one that simply affects the physical nature of the substance." Usually, increasing the temperature or applying pressure, both, will cause a physical change. In other words, physical changes are reversible.

All the other options like rusting of iron bolts on a bridge is a chemical change when iron reacts with oxygen in the air, it gets rust.

Similarly, silver cups exposed to air react with air is a chemical change, and option d, silver off magnesium that creates light, is also a chemical change.

Thus, the correct option is C. A sculptor casts a statue in molten bronze and allows it to harden.

What is the structure of Y?
2) Compound X has the formula C8H12.
X reacts with two molar equivalents of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form cyclooctane.
Treatment of X with ozone followed by zinc in aqueous acid gives two molar equivalents of the same dialdehyde.
What is the structure of X

Answers

Answer:

See explanation and images attached

Explanation:

We know that the cis isomer has more heat of hydrogenation since it is less stable than the trans isomer. Since the hydrogenation of both compounds yields the same product and the hydroboration/oxidation both give a primary alcohol, they are geometric isomers and Y is the trans isomer (Image 2).

For the compound C8H12, the compound in question must be 1,5- cyclooctadiene since two moles of the same aldehyde was obtained after ozonolysis and reaction with two equivalents of hydrogen gives cyclooctane (Image 1).

4.There will be an excess of other reactants at the end of the reaction.
5.The limiting reactant is completely used up in the reaction.

Answers

Answer:

5.The limiting reactant is completely used up in the reaction

Explanation:

The limiting reactant is completely used up in the reaction is the correct answer because a limiting reactant is a reactant in chemical reaction that is completely consumed or used up in the chemical reaction. Limiting reactant when it is completely used up limits the amount of products that will be formed. The reaction will be halted or will stop when the limiting reactant is totally used up.

The statement that is right as regards a limiting reactants in a reaction is 5:.The limiting reactant is completely used up in the reaction.

The limiting reagent can be regarded as a reactant during  chemical reaction, which is been consumed totally at the end of the reaction without remains.

The amount of product that is   formed during a reaction can be limited by action of the limiting reagent this is because once this reagent is used up the reaction cannot proceed again.
