- Predict and complete two reactions of a compound with water. Use a single arrow to indicate that the reaction proceeds to completion and a double arrow to indicate an equilibrium. Phases (liquid, aqueous, etc.) are optional. Reaction A: H,S + H,O Reaction B: CaH, + 2H,0arrow_forwardThe amount of tartaric acid is responsible for the tartness of wine and controls the acidity of the wine. Tartaric acid also plays a very significant role in the overall taste, feel and color of a wine. Tartaric acid is a diprotic organic acid The chemical formula for tartaric acid is C4H6O6 and its structural formula is HO2CCH(OH)CH(OH)CO2H. A 50.00 mL sample of a white dinner wine required 21.48 mL of 0.03776 M NaOH to achieve a faint pink color. Express the acidity of the wine in terms of grams of tartaric acid, H2C4H4O6 (M. M. = 150.10) per 100 mL of wine. Assume that the two acidic hydrogens are titrated at the end point. MM H2C4H4O6 = 150.10 MM NaOH = 40.00 Below is the balanced chemical equation for this titration.arrow_forwardFf.224.arrow_forward
- Hydrogen cyanide can be catalytically reduced with hydro-gen to form methylamine. Use Lewis structures and bond ener-gies to determine ΔH°ᵣₓₙ for HCN(g)+2H₂(g)→CH₃NH₂(g)arrow_forwardWhat is the Born-Haber process and how is it important to the world’s economyarrow_forwardHydrogen peroxide is not only an antiseptic but also an oxidizing agent. The following equation shows the reaction of hydrogen peroxide with acetaldehyde to give acetic acid: C2H4O(l) + H2O2(l) → C2H4O2(l) + H2O(l) In this reaction, which species is oxidized and which species is reduced? Which species is the oxidizing agent and which species is the reducing agent?arrow_forward
- Using your general knowledge of periodic trends in electronegativity, predict whether the C=O bond and the C-H bonds in formaldehyde will be strongly polar, weakly polar or nonpolar. Calculate the electronegativity difference ΔχO-C across the C=O bond and the electronegativity difference ΔχC-H to confirm or correct your predictions. For any strongly polar bond(s) on the molecule, draw the bond dipole moment adjacent to the bond in the VSEPR structure above, using crossed arrow notation to show the direction of the positive and negative bond dipoles. Predict whether the overall molecule should be polar or nonpolar. ___________________ Explain your reasoning below. If the overall molecule is polar, draw the net dipole next to the molecule, using crossed arrow notation to indicate the direction of the dipole.arrow_forwardBourgeonal is an aldehyde with the odor of the Lily of the Valley.

- Complete the general acid reaction for the four acid halies (HX). Draw and upload the Lewis structures of the reactants and products for each reaction. HF + H₂O HCI + H₂O → HBr + H₂O → HI + H₂O → Each of these reactions should include: lone pairs of electrons, partial charges, and mechanistic arrows to show the movement of electrons.arrow_forwardCompare the polarity of the C-Cl bond in (CH3)3C-Cl with the polarity of the Si-Cl bond in (CH3)3Si-Cl.arrow_forwardSee Figures 4.5a and 4.7.
