Answer:
a) E2
b) SN2
c) SN2
Explanation:
A substitution reaction involves replacement of an atom or group in a molecule by another atom or group. An elimination reaction is the loss of two atoms from the same molecule leading to the formation of a multiple bond in the molecule.
We must note that primary alkyl halides never undergo SN1/E1 reactions. However, the presence of a strong bulky base such as tert BuO- , E2 reactions predominate. In the presence of strong bases such as OH^- and good nucleophiles such as I^-, SN2 mechanism predominates.
Consider the reaction “2 SO2 (g) + O2 (g) = 2 SO3 was 0.175 M. After 50 s the concentration of SO2 Date: (g)”. Initial concentration of SO2 (g) (g) became 0.0500 M. Calculate rate of the reaction
Answer:
The answer is "[tex]1.25 \times 10^{-3} \ \frac{m}{s}[/tex]"
Explanation:
Calculating the rate of the equation:
[tex]=-\frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta [SO_2]}{\Delta t} =-\frac{\Delta [O_2]}{\Delta t}= +\frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta [SO_3]}{\Delta t}\\\\=\frac{\Delta [SO_2]}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.0500-0.175\ M}{505}= -2.5 \times 10^{-3} \ \frac{m}{s}\\\\[/tex]
Rate:
[tex]=\frac{-2.5 \times 10^{-3}}{2}=1.25 \times 10^{-3} \ \frac{m}{s}[/tex]
Consider the following reaction:
CO(g)+2H2(g)⇌CH3OH(g)
A reaction mixture in a 5.15-L flask at a certain temperature initially contains 26.6 g CO and 2.36 g H2. At equilibrium, the flask contains 8.63 g CH3OH.
Part A
Calculate the equilibrium constant (Kc) for the reaction at this temperature.
Answer:
26.6
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the molar concentrations
We will use the following expression.
M = mass solute / molar mass solute × liters of solution
[CO]i = 26.6 g / (28.01 g/mol) × 5.15 L = 0.184 M
[H₂]i = 2.36 g / (2.02 g/mol) × 5.15 L = 0.227 M
[CH₃OH]e = 8.63 g / (32.04 g/mol) × 5.15 L = 0.0523 M
Step 2: Make an ICE chart
CO(g) + 2 H₂(g) ⇄ CH₃OH(g)
I 0.184 0.227 0
C -x -2x +x
E 0.184-x 0.227-2x x
Since [CH₃OH]e = x, x = 0.0523
Step 3: Calculate all the concentrations at equilibrium
[CO]e = 0.184-x = 0.132 M
[H₂]e = 0.227-2x = 0.122 M
[CH₃OH]e = 0.0523 M
Step 4: Calculate the equilibrium constant (Kc)
Kc = [CH₃OH] / [CO] [H₂]²
Kc = 0.0523 / 0.132 × 0.122² = 26.6

What direction would equilibrium moves towards based on the following if we increased the volume of the container.
[tex]2A_{(g)} + 5B_{(g)} + 12C_{(g)}[/tex] ↔ [tex]14AC_{(g)} + 5B_{(s)}[/tex]
Answer choices:
a) reactants
b) no change
c) products
d) decrease in volume
Please help!
To answer this question, we will first find out the number of gaseous moles on each side of the equilibrium
on the left:
we have 2 moles of A, 5 moles of B and 12 moles of C
which gives us a grand total of 19 gaseous moles
on the right:
here, we have 14 moles of AC gas, we will not count the number of moles of B because it's a solid
giving us 14 gaseous moles on the right
Where does the reaction shift?
more gaseous moles means more space taken, because gas likes to fill all the space it can
if we have more volume, more gas can move around without colliding (reacting) with each other
Hence more volume favors the side with more gaseous moles
here, the left has more gaseous moles. So we can say that the reaction will shift towards the left, or the reactants side
Answer:
Explanation:
given reversible chemical reaction:
2A(g) + 5B(g) + 12C(g) ↔ 14AC(g) + 5B(s)
chemicals in solid form do not take up a lot of volume so change in container volume has no effect
look at chemicals in gas form only:
the total no. of moles of reactants in gas form = 2 + 5 + 12 = 19
the total no. of moles of products in gas form = 14
so an increase in volume of the container will favor the reaction direction with higher volume n high volume means higher no. of moles
the ans is the equilibrium will move towards a) reactants

Eocell = (0.0257/n) lnKeq, Calculate Eocell from Use this equation to calculate K value.
Eo (I2/I-) = +0.53, Eo (Br2/Br-) = +1.07,
Explanation:
The given chemical reaction is:
[tex]2Br^- (aq) + I_2(s) <-> Br_2(l) + 2I^- (aq)[/tex]
[tex]E^ocell=oxidation potential of anode + reduction potential of cathode\\[/tex]
The relation between Eo cell and Keq is shown below:
[tex]deltaG=-RTlnK_e_q\\delta=-nFE^o cell\\=>nFE^o cell=RTlnK_e_q\\lnK_e_q=\frac{nF}{RT} E^o cell[/tex]
The value of Eo cell is:
Br- undergoes oxidation and I2 undergoes reduction.
Reduction takes place at cathode.

A uniform plastic block floats in water with 50.0 % of its volume above the surface of the water. The block is placed in a second liquid and floats with 23.0 % of its volume above the surface of the liquid.
What is the density of the second liquid?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Answer:
density of second liquid = 650 kg/m³
Explanation:
Given that:
The volume of the plastic block submerged inside the water = 0.5 V
The force on the plastic block = [tex]\rho_1V_1g[/tex]
[tex]= 0.5p_1 V_g[/tex]
when the block is floating, the weight supporting the force (buoyancy force) is:
W [tex]= 0.5p_1 V_g[/tex]
[tex]\rho Vg = 0.5p_1 V_g[/tex]
[tex]\rho = 0.5 \rho _1[/tex]
where;
water density [tex]\rho _1[/tex] = 1000
[tex]\rho = 0.5 (1000)[/tex]
[tex]\rho = 500 kg/m^3[/tex]
In the second liquid, the volume of plastic block in the water = (100-23)%
= 77% = 0.7 V
The force on the plastic block is:
[tex]= 0.77p_2 V_g[/tex]
when the block is floating, the weight supporting the force (buoyancy force) is:
[tex]W = 0.77p_2 V_g[/tex]
[tex]\rho Vg = 0.77 \rho_2 V_g \\ \\ \rho = 0.77 \rho_2 \\ \\ 500 = 0.77 \rho_2 \\ \\ \rho_2 = 500/0.77[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{ \rho_2 \simeq 650 \ kg/m^3}[/tex]
Write a net ionic equation for the overall reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of carbonic acid and sodium hydroxide are combined. Assume excess base.
Answer:
[tex]H_2CO_3(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow (CO_3)^{2-}(aq)+2H_2O(l)[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to set up this net ionic equation, by firstly setting up the complete molecular equation as follows:
[tex]H_2CO_3(aq)+2NaOH(aq)\rightarrow Na_2CO_3(aq)+2H_2O(l)[/tex]
Thus, since carbonic acid is weak it merely ionizes whereas sodium hydroxides ionizes for the 100 % as it is strong; thus, we can write the complete ionic equation:
[tex]H_2CO_3(aq)+2Na^+(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+(CO_3)^{2-}(aq)+2H_2O(l)[/tex]
Whereas sodium ions act as the spectator ones to be cancelled out for us to obtain:
[tex]H_2CO_3(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow (CO_3)^{2-}(aq)+2H_2O(l)[/tex]

A sample of oxygen occupies 1.00 L. If the temperature remains constant, and the pressure on the oxygen is decreased to one third the original pressure, what is the new volume
Answer:
3.00 L
Explanation:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
V₁ = 1.00 L
P₁ = (x) atm
P₂ = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] · (P₁) = [tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex]
V₂ = unknown
(x atm)(1.00 L) = ( [tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex] atm)(V₂)
divide both sides by ( [tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex] atm)
( 1.00x )( [tex]\frac{3}{x}[/tex] ) = V₂
x cancels out
(1.00)(3) = V₂
V₂ = 3.00 L

For each of the following compounds, indicate the pH at which 50% of the compound will be in a form that possesses a charge and at which pH more than 99% of the compound will be in a form that possesses a charge.
ClCH2COOH (pKa = 2.86)
CH3CH2NH+3 (pKa = 10.7)
Express your answer using two decimal places
a. Determine a pH at which 50% of ClCH2COOH will be in a form that possesses a charge.
b. Determine a pH at which pH more than 99% of ClCH2COOH will be in a form that possesses a charge.
c. Determine a pH at which 50% of CH3CH2NH+3 will be in a form that possesses a charge.
d. Determine a pH at which pH more than 99% of CH3CH2NH+3 will be in a form that possesses a charge.
Answer:
a. 2..86 b. 4.86 c. 10.7 d. 8.7
Explanation:
a. Determine a pH at which 50% of ClCH2COOH will be in a form that possesses a charge.
Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,
pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA]
where [A⁻] = concentration of conjugate base (or charged form) and [HA] = concentration of acid.
At 50% concentration, [A⁻] = [HA] ⇒ [A⁻]/[HA] = 1
So, pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA]
pH = pKa + log1
pH = pKa = 2.86
b. Determine a pH at which pH more than 99% of ClCH2COOH will be in a form that possesses a charge.
Let x be the concentration of the acid. Since 99% of it should possess a charge, the basic concentration is 0.99x while the acidic concentration is remaining 1 % (1 - 0.99)x = 0.01x
Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,
pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA] where [A⁻] = concentration of conjugate base (or charged form) = 0.99x and [HA] = concentration of acid = 0.01x.
pH = pKa + log0.99x/0.01x
pH = pKa + log0.99/0.01
pH = 2.86 + log99
pH = 2.86 + 1.996
pH = 4.856
pH ≅ 4.86
c. Determine a pH at which 50% of CH3CH2NH+3 will be in a form that possesses a charge.
Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,
pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA]
where [A⁻] = concentration of conjugate base and [HA] = concentration of acid.
At 50% concentration, [A⁻] = [HA] ⇒ [A⁻]/[HA] = 1
So, pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA]
pH = pKa + log1
pH = pKa = 10.7
d. Determine a pH at which pH more than 99% of CH3CH2NH+3 will be in a form that possesses a charge.
Let x be the concentration of the acid. Since 99% of it should possess a charge, the basic concentration is 0.01x while the acidic concentration is remaining 99 % (1 - 0.01)x = 0.99x (which possesses the charge).
Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,
pH = pKa + log[A⁻]/[HA] where [A⁻] = concentration of conjugate base = 0.01x and [HA] = concentration of acid = 0.99x.
pH = pKa + log0.01x/0.99x
pH = pKa + log1/99
pH = 10.7 - log99
pH = 10.7 - 1.996
pH = 8.704
pH ≅ 8.7

A system receives 425 J of heat from and delivers 425 J of work to its surroundings. What is the change in internal energy of the system (in J)?
Answer:
0 J
Explanation:
Applying,
ΔE = q+w................ Equation 1
Where ΔE = change in internal energy of the system, q = Heat of the system, w = work of the system.
Note: q is positive, while w is negative
From the question,
Given: q = 425 J, w = -425 J
Substitute these values into equation 1
ΔE = 425-425
ΔE = 0 J
Hence the change in internal energy of the system is 0 J
Sometimes in lab we collect the gas formed by a chemical reaction over water . This makes it easy to isolate and measure the amount of gas produced.
Suppose the CO, gas evolved by a certain chemical reaction taking place at 50.0°C is collected over water, using an apparatus something like that in the sketch, and the final volume of gas in the collection tube is measured to be 132. mL. Calculate the mass of CO, that is in the collection tube. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
0.17 g
Explanation:
Since the volume of gas collected is 132 mL, we need to find the number of moles of gas present in 132 mL.
So, number of moles, n = volume of gas, v/molar volume, V
n = v/V where v = 132 mL = 0.132 L and V = 22.4 L
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
n = v/V
n = 0.132 L/22.4 L
n = 0.005893 mol
We then need to calculate the molar mass of CO, M = atomic mass of carbon + atomic mass of oxygen = 12 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 28 g/mol
Also, number of moles of gas, n = m/M where m = mass of CO and M = molar mass of CO
m = nM
m = 0.005893 mol × 28 g/mol
m = 0.165004 g
m ≅ 0.17 g to 2 significant digits
The compound IF5 contains Question 16 options: polar covalent bonds with partial negative charges on the F atoms. ionic bonds. polar covalent bonds with partial negative charges on the I atoms. nonpolar covalent bonds.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The molecule IF5 possesses five I-F polar bonds. However, the presence of polar bonds does not automatically imply that the molecule will be polar.
The geometry of the molecule is very important in determining the polarity of a compound. Since IF5 has a lone pair of electrons, the molecule is bent and as such there is a permanent dipole moment created in the molecule thereby making IF5 polar in nature.

What is an exothermic and endothermic reaction?An exothermic reaction can be described as a thermodynamic chemical reaction that emits energy from the system to its surroundings usually in the form of light, heat, or sound.
While an endothermic reaction can be described as an opposite of an exothermic reaction where the energy gains in the form of heat. In exothermic chemical reactions, the bond energy is transformed into thermal energy.
In exothermic reactions, the reaction happens the form of the kinetic energy of molecules when the energy is released. The release of energy is due to the electronic transition of electrons from one energy level to another.
The burning of gasoline, and water condensation is also an exothermic reaction in which energy is released while ice melting and baking cake is an endothermic reaction.
