Akọwa Nkọwa
In the given reaction, C\(_2\)H\(_2\) and H\(_2\) react to form C\(_2\)H\(_6\). The molecular formula of C\(_2\)H\(_2\) is C\(_2\)H\(_2\) and that of H\(_2\) is H\(_2\). The molecular formula of C\(_2\)H\(_6\) is C\(_2\)H\(_6\). Therefore, we can write the balanced chemical equation as: C\(_2\)H\(_2\) + 2H\(_2\) → C\(_2\)H\(_6\) We can see that for every one mole of C\(_2\)H\(_2\) used in the reaction, two moles of H\(_2\) are required. Therefore, the value of y in the equation is 2. So, the correct option is (C) 2.

When heat is absorbed during a chemical reaction, the reaction is said to be endothermic. Endothermic reactions are those that absorb energy from their surroundings in the form of heat, resulting in a decrease in temperature of the surroundings. In an endothermic reaction, the reactants have lower energy than the products, and the difference in energy is absorbed from the surroundings as heat. Examples of endothermic reactions include the process of melting ice, the reaction between baking soda and vinegar, and the reaction between ammonium nitrate and water.

Akọwa Nkọwa
The statement that is correct about nuclear reactions is "takes place inside the nucleus." A nuclear reaction involves changes in the nucleus of an atom, where protons and/or neutrons can be added or removed. This process can result in the formation of a new element or the release of energy in the form of radiation. These reactions can occur spontaneously or be induced by high-energy particles such as neutrons or protons. Unlike chemical reactions, nuclear reactions are not affected by temperature or pressure and involve only particles within the nucleus, such as protons and neutrons, but not electrons.

Which of the following gases are arranged in increasing order of diffusion rate? [H = 1 .0; C = 12; N = 14; O = 16; S = 32]
Akọwa Nkọwa
The rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the molar mass of the gas, which means that the lighter the gas, the faster it will diffuse. Therefore, to arrange the given gases in increasing order of diffusion rate, we need to arrange them in decreasing order of their molar mass. Let's calculate the molar mass of each gas: - SO2: 32 + 2(16) = 64 - O2: 2(16) = 32 - NH3: 14 + 3(1) = 17 - H2: 2(1) = 2 - H2S: 2 + 32 = 34 - NH2: 14 + 2(1) = 16 - CO2: 12 + 2(16) = 44 - N2O: 2(14) + 16 = 44 - NO2: 14 + 2(16) = 46 - CO2: 12 + 2(16) = 44 Now, let's arrange the gases in decreasing order of their molar mass: - H2, NH3, O2, SO2 - NH2, H2S, O2, SO2 - CO2, N2O, O2, SO2 - CO2, N2, NO2, NH3 Therefore, the correct answer is the first option: SO2 < O2 < NH3 < H2.

The aqueous solution which has pH > 7 is
Akọwa Nkọwa
The aqueous solution which has pH > 7 is Na\(_2\)CO\(_3(aq)\). pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. A pH of 7 indicates neutrality, while a pH greater than 7 indicates basicity or alkalinity. The pH of a solution is determined by the concentration of hydrogen ions (H\(^+\)) in the solution. In the case of Na\(_2\)CO\(_3(aq)\), it is a basic compound because it has a carbonate ion, which can react with water to form hydroxide ions (OH\(^-\)). The hydroxide ions increase the concentration of hydroxide ions in the solution, which makes the solution basic. The chemical reaction that occurs when Na\(_2\)CO\(_3(aq)\) dissolves in water is: Na\(_2\)CO\(_3(aq)\) + H\(_2\)O → 2Na\(^+\) + CO\(_3^{2-}\) + 2OH\(^-\) The presence of hydroxide ions in the solution makes it basic, and the higher the concentration of hydroxide ions, the higher the pH of the solution. Therefore, Na\(_2\)CO\(_3(aq)\) is the aqueous solution which has pH > 7.

Which of the following bond types is responsible for the high boiling point of water?
Akọwa Nkọwa
The bond responsible for the high boiling point of water is the hydrogen bond. A hydrogen bond is a type of dipole-dipole interaction that occurs when a hydrogen atom bonded to an electronegative atom (such as oxygen or nitrogen) in one molecule is attracted to an electronegative atom in another molecule. In water, the hydrogen atoms of one water molecule are attracted to the oxygen atom of another water molecule through hydrogen bonds, creating a network of intermolecular attractions. These hydrogen bonds require a large amount of energy to break, resulting in a high boiling point for water compared to similar-sized molecules with only London dispersion or dipole-dipole interactions.

Akọwa Nkọwa
The question is asking us to identify the particle that the mobile valence electrons in a metallic solid are attracted to. In a metallic solid, the valence electrons are not tightly bound to any particular atom, but rather are free to move throughout the entire solid. These electrons form a "sea" of negatively charged particles that is dispersed throughout the solid. The positive charges in a metallic solid are located in the nuclei of the atoms that make up the solid. Since opposite charges attract each other, the mobile valence electrons are attracted to these positively charged nuclei. Therefore, the correct answer is: "positively charged nuclei".

When an atom gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged, because electrons have a negative charge. The number of electrons gained is equal to the difference between the number of protons and the number of electrons. In this case, the atom of element X gains two electrons, so its charge will be -2. The symbol for an ion with a charge of -2 is X 2-. Therefore, the correct answer is.

Rare gases, also known as noble gases, are stable because they have a complete outermost shell of electrons. In other words, they have octet structures, meaning they have eight electrons in their outermost energy level, with the exception of helium, which has two electrons in its outermost energy level. This full outer shell makes them highly unreactive, since they have no need to gain or lose electrons to achieve a more stable configuration. Therefore, rare gases do not readily form chemical bonds with other elements, making them very stable.

Akọwa Nkọwa
The separation of petroleum fractions depends on the differences in their boiling points. Petroleum is a mixture of hydrocarbons with different boiling points, ranging from gases to heavy liquids. In order to separate these different components, petroleum is heated to vaporize the liquid, and then the vapor is cooled to condense the different fractions. The fractions are then collected at different points in the cooling process, based on their boiling points. This process of separation is known as fractional distillation, and it is the most common method for separating petroleum fractions. The boiling point of each fraction depends on the length of the hydrocarbon chain and the degree of branching or saturation, which determine the strength of the intermolecular forces and the thermal stability of the molecules. Therefore, the boiling points of the fractions increase with increasing molecular weight and decreasing volatility.

How many isomers has C 3H 6CI 2?
Akọwa Nkọwa
The number of isomers that C3H6Cl2 can have depends on the possible arrangements of the atoms in the molecule. First, let's consider the number of possible structural isomers that can be formed. Structural isomers are molecules with the same molecular formula but with different arrangements of their atoms. For C3H6Cl2, there are two possible structural isomers: 1,1-dichloropropane and 2,2-dichloropropane. Next, we can consider the possibility of stereoisomers, which are molecules with the same molecular formula and the same structural arrangement of atoms, but with different orientations of atoms in space. However, in C3H6Cl2, there are no chiral centers (carbon atoms with four different substituents), so there are no possible stereoisomers. Therefore, the total number of isomers for C3H6Cl2 is 2

Akọwa Nkọwa
The pressure exerted by a gas is a function of the frequency of collision between gaseous molecules. When gas molecules move, they collide with one another and with the walls of their container. These collisions create a force that is distributed over the area of the container, which is the pressure of the gas. The more often these collisions occur, the higher the pressure of the gas. Therefore, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the frequency of collision between its molecules. The total volume of the gas, the speed of the gaseous molecules, and the mass of each gaseous molecule can affect the frequency of collision between gaseous molecules, but they are not the primary factors that determine the pressure of the gas.

Akọwa Nkọwa
To determine the empirical formula of a hydrocarbon compound, we need to know the percentage composition of each element in the compound. In this case, we are given that the compound contains 92.3% carbon, which means that the remaining percentage (100 - 92.3 = 7.7%) must be hydrogen. To calculate the empirical formula, we need to convert the percentages to mole ratios. Assuming a 100 g sample of the compound, we have 92.3 g of carbon and 7.7 g of hydrogen. The next step is to convert the masses of each element to moles. We use the molar masses of carbon and hydrogen (12.0 g/mol and 1.00 g/mol, respectively) to calculate the number of moles of each element: - Moles of carbon = 92.3 g / 12.0 g/mol = 7.69 mol - Moles of hydrogen = 7.7 g / 1.00 g/mol = 7.7 mol To get the simplest whole-number ratio of carbon to hydrogen, we divide each number of moles by the smallest number of moles (7.69 mol in this case): - Carbon: 7.69 mol / 7.69 mol = 1.00 - Hydrogen: 7.7 mol / 7.69 mol = 1.00 Therefore, the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon compound is CH, which corresponds to.

The instrument used in detecting the presence of radiation is the Geiger-Muller counter. Radiation refers to the emission of energy in the form of particles or waves. This can include gamma rays, beta particles, and alpha particles, among others. The Geiger-Muller counter is a device that is used to detect and measure ionizing radiation, such as alpha and beta particles, gamma rays, and X-rays. The Geiger-Muller counter works by using a gas-filled tube that contains a wire electrode. When ionizing radiation enters the tube, it ionizes the gas atoms, which then cause a cascade of electrons to move toward the wire electrode. This generates a pulse of electrical current that is detected and counted by the device. The number of pulses detected per unit time is proportional to the intensity of the radiation present. Out of the given options, the only instrument used in detecting the presence of radiation is the Geiger-Muller counter. - Cathode ray tube: This instrument is used to generate and manipulate a focused beam of electrons in a vacuum. It is commonly used in televisions and computer monitors. - Mass spectrometer: This instrument is used to determine the mass of individual atoms and molecules in a sample by ionizing them and separating them based on their mass-to-charge ratio. It is commonly used in chemistry and physics research. - X-ray tube: This instrument is used to generate X-rays by accelerating electrons and colliding them with a metal target.

To calculate the percentage by mass of calcium in Ca(OCl)2, we need to first find the molar mass of the compound, which is the sum of the atomic masses of its elements. Molar mass of Ca(OCl)2 = (1 × atomic mass of Ca) + (2 × atomic mass of O) + (2 × atomic mass of Cl) = (1 × 40.0) + (2 × 16.0) + (2 × 35.5) = 142.0 g/mol Next, we need to find the mass of calcium in one mole of Ca(OCl)2. Mass of calcium = (1 × atomic mass of Ca) = 40.0 g/mol Finally, we can calculate the percentage by mass of calcium in Ca(OCl)2 by dividing the mass of calcium by the molar mass of the compound and multiplying by 100. Percentage by mass of calcium in Ca(OCl)2 = (mass of calcium / molar mass of Ca(OCl)2) × 100 = (40.0 / 142.0) × 100 = 28.2% (rounded to one decimal place) Therefore, the correct answer is (A) 28.0%.

The molar mass of KOH (potassium hydroxide) is K + O + H = 39.0 + 16.0 + 1.00 = 56.0 g/mol. To find the amount of KOH needed to yield 6.5g, we divide 6.5 by the molar mass of KOH: 6.5g / 56.0 g/mol = 0.116 mol Since the concentration of KOH is given as 0.25 moldm-3, we can use the formula: concentration (mol/dm3) = amount of substance (mol) / volume (dm3) to find the volume of the solution required: 0.25 mol/dm3 = 0.116 mol / volume (dm3) Solving for volume, we get: volume (dm3) = 0.116 mol / 0.25 mol/dm3 = 0.464 dm3 = 464.30 cm3 Therefore, the answer is 464.30 cm3.

Akọwa Nkọwa
In the periodic table, all elements within the same group have the same number of valence electrons. The periodic table is a systematic arrangement of elements based on their atomic structure. Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, which are the electrons in the outermost energy level of the atom that are involved in chemical reactions. The number of valence electrons determines the chemical properties of an element and its ability to bond with other elements to form compounds. For example, the elements in Group 1 (also called the alkali metals), such as lithium, sodium, and potassium, all have one valence electron. This makes them highly reactive and gives them similar chemical properties. Similarly, the elements in Group 7 (also called the halogens), such as fluorine, chlorine, and bromine, all have seven valence electrons, which also gives them similar chemical properties. In contrast, elements in the same period have the same number of energy levels or shells, but they do not have the same number of valence electrons. For example, oxygen and neon are in the same period, but oxygen has six valence electrons while neon has eight. Therefore, it can be concluded that all elements within the same group have the same number of valence electrons.

The solubility of a solid in a given solvent refers to the maximum amount of the solid that can be dissolved in a specific amount of the solvent at a given temperature and pressure. The factors that affect the solubility of a solid in a given solvent are the nature of the solute, nature of the solvent, pressure, and temperature. - Nature of solute: The chemical and physical properties of the solute, such as its molecular size, polarity, and shape, can affect its solubility in a given solvent. For example, a polar solute is more likely to dissolve in a polar solvent, while a nonpolar solute is more likely to dissolve in a nonpolar solvent. - Nature of solvent: The chemical and physical properties of the solvent, such as its polarity and boiling point, can affect its solubility with a specific solute. - Pressure: The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure applied to the system. This is known as Henry's Law. However, the solubility of solids in liquids is not significantly affected by pressure changes. - Temperature: The solubility of most solids in liquids increases as the temperature increases, because higher temperatures increase the kinetic energy of both the solvent molecules and the solute particles. However, for some solutes, such as calcium sulfate, the solubility decreases as the temperature increases. Therefore, the factor that does not affect the solubility of a solid in a given solvent is pressure, as it only significantly affects the solubility of gases in liquids, not solids in liquids.

(c) Baking soda and hydrochloric acid react according to the following equation:
NaHCO\(_{3(aq)}\) + HCI\(_{(aq)}\) ---> NaCl\(_{(aq)}\) CO\(_{2(g)}\) + H\(_2\)O\(_{(l)}\). Calculate the mass of baking soda that would produce 10g of ccrbon (IV) oxide. [H = 1.00, C = 12.0, 0 = 16.0, Na = 23.0]
(d) Give a reason why a given mass of sodium hydroxide pellets cannot be used to prepare a standard solution.
NaHCO\(_3\) + HCI --> NaCI + CO\(_2\) + H\(_2\)O
84g NaHCO\(_3\) --> 44g CO\(_2\)
Xg --> 10g CO\(_2\)
Xg = \(\frac{84 \times 10}{44}\)
= 19.09g
= 19.1g.
(d) give a reason why a given mass of sodium hydroxide pellets cannot be used to prepare a standard solution: Sodium hydroxide absorbs water/deliquescent and absorbs carbon IV oxide from air/and this would make mass taken unreliable/add to its mass.
