(a)
Interpretation:
The chemical equation for the displacement of hydrogen gas from HCl(aq) by Al(s) should be determined.
Concept introduction:
A chemical equation is the representation of a
All molecules must be written with their physical state as sub script such as (s) for solid, (l) for liquid, (g) for gas and (aq) for aqueous. A balance chemical equation is the chemical equation in which all the atoms at both sides of the equation are same.
(b)
Interpretation:
The chemical equation for the reforming of propane gas with steam should be determined.
Concept introduction:
A chemical equation is the representation of a chemical reaction with the complete information of reactant and product molecules. Here both types of molecules must be written as their chemical symbols separated by the single headed arrow. If the reaction is at the equilibrium position, it must be an equilibrium sign (

- The chemical name for aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid. It is believed that the analgesic and other desirable properties of aspirin are due not to the aspirin itself but rather to the simpler compound salicylic add, C6H4(OH)CO2H, which results from the breakdown of asp inn in the stomach. Salicylic acid (a) Give approximate values for the following bond angles in the acid: (i) CCC in the ring, (ii) OC=O; (iii) either of the COH angles: and (iv) CCH. (b) What is the hybridization of the C atoms of the ring? Of the C atom in the CO2H group? (c) Experiment shows that 1.00 g of the acid will dissolve in 460 ml of water. If the pH of this solution is 2.4, what is Ka for the acid? (d) If you have salicylic acid in your stomach and if the pH of gastric juice is 2.0, calculate the percentage of salicylic add that will be present in the stomach in the form of the salicylate ion, C6H4(OH)CO2. (e) Assume you have 25.0 mL of a 0.014 M solution of salicylic acid and titrate it with 0.010 M NaOH. What is the pH at the halfway point of the titration? What is the pH at the equivalence point?arrow_forwardHalogens combine with one another to produce interhalogens such as BrF3. Sketch a possible molecular structure for this molecule, and decide if the FBrF bond angles will be less than or greater than ideal.arrow_forwardWhat is the likelihood that hydrogen (H2) will become a widely used fuel and that the hydrogen economy will become a reality? In particular, what are the advantages and disadvantages of H2 as a fuel? What would be necessary for a significant conversion to a hydrogen economy?arrow_forward

Use this value and the enthalpy of dissociation of the FF bond to calculate the XeF bond dissociation enthalpy.arrow_forwardThe photograph below shows what occurs when a solution of potassium chromate is treated with a few drops of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Some of the bright yellow chromate ion is converted to the orange dichromate ion. 2 CrO42(aq) + 2 H3O+(aq) CrO72(aq) + 3 H2O() (a) Explain this experimental observation in terms of Le Chateliers principle. (b) What would you observe if you treated the orange solution with sodium hydroxide? Explain your observation.arrow_forwardhat is meant by the term driving forces? Why are mailer spread and energy spread considered to be driving forces?arrow_forward
