Would you expect ethane (C2H6) to have a higher or lower melting point than water? Explain your answer.

Hello, There! I'm Rocky and I'm here to help! <3

My Answer Would be Lower!

Explanation:

Ethane molecules have no hydrogen bonds and need less energy to separate.

Hope this Helps!

Explanation:

Given;

pH of the solution = 4.33

H₃O+ is calculated as;

pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

4.33 = -log[H₃O⁺]

-4.33 = log[H₃O⁺]

10⁻⁴°³³ = [H₃O⁺]

M

[OH⁻] is calculated as;

[H₃O⁺] x [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

10⁻⁴°³³ x [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

pOH of the solution is calculated as;

pOH  +  pH = 14

pOH  + 4.33 = 14

pOH  = 14 - 4.33

pOH = 9.67

Thus, pOH of the solution is 9.67
