b. hcn
c. nacl
d. koh

Explain why pure hydrogen cyanide does not conduct electricity, but become a conductor when it is dissolved in water? (at room temp, pure hcn exists as a volatile liquid)

Acompound contains c, h, and o atoms. when 1.130 g of the compound is burned in oxygen, 1.064 g co2 and 0.3631 g h2o are produced. what is the empirical formula of this compound?

The boiling point of propanoic acid is higher than that of 1-butanol because: propanoic acid has a higher molecular weight than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is more soluble in water than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is a better hydrogen bond donor than 1-butanol. propanoic acid forms hydrogen bonded dimers and 1-butanol does not. 1-butanol forms hydrogen bonded dimers and propanoic acid does not.
