1 dm3 of ethanol is equal to 1000 cm3, so the mass of ethanol used is =density x volume = 0.789 g cm-3 x 1000 cm3 = 789gMolar mass of ethanol = (2x12)+(6x1) +(1x16)= 46 g mol-1Moles of ethanol = mass/mola...

Name of reaction is condensation polymerisation.Water is lost upon condensation of ethanedioic acid and ethane-1,2-diol (will draw this out on the whiteboard).

Ionic bonds are very strong, with elements involved in a compound having a full outer shell of electrons due to donating and accepting electrons, allowing them to be in a very stable state. In this case, ...

electrons, which are negative particles that are part of the atom, are transferred from potassium to sulfurtwo potassium atoms each lose one electron and they form K+ ions as they have lost negative charg...

Firstly a transition element is an element which forms one or more stable ions with incompletely filled d orbitals.Ligands are charged or neutral, ions or molecules, which form coordination bonds with a c...
