Answer:

CH₃(CH₂)₁₀COONa

Explanation:

The compounds given are

NaCl

CH₃COOH

CH₃COONH₄

CH₃(CH₂)₁₀COONa

CH₃(CH₂)₁₀CH₃

CH₃(CH₂)₁₀COONa will form micelle . Micelle are formed by soap solution which helps in the removal of oily dirt from our clothes . They are spherical shaped tiny droplet of oil which contains the tail of long chain organic compound like salt of long chain fatty acids . The surface of the droplet is lined with the tip of the chain which consists of negative charge of the tail end . On the average , each micelle contains a specific amount of charge . Due to it , they make colloidal solution in the water and gets washed off my water . The oily dirt is thus removed .

CH₃(CH₂)₁₀COONa ⇄ CH₃(CH₂)₁₀COO⁻ + Na⁺

CH₃(CH₂)₁₀COO⁻ part which is long chain of fatty acid gets adsorbed by oily droplet formed by oily dirt and forming micelle .

Products: 1-methylcyclohexene, 3-methylcyclohexene, methylenecyclohexane

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reaction that we are considering here is quite a knotty reaction. It is difficult to decide if the mechanism is actually E1 or E2 since both are equally probable based on the mass of scientific evidence regarding this reaction. However, we can easily assume that the methylenecyclohexane was formed by an E1 mechanism.

Looking at the products, one could convincingly assert that the reaction leading to the formation of the two main products proceeds via an E1 mechanism with the formation of a carbocation intermediate as has been shown in mechanism attached to this answer. Possible rearrangement of the carbocation yields the 3-methylcyclohexene product.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity can be calculated using the following equation: q = mc∆T In the equation q represents the amount of heat energy gained or lost (in joules ), m is the mass of the substance (in grams), c is the specific heat capacity of the substance (in J/g °C), and ∆T is the temperature change of the substance

Lead−206 is the end product of 238u decay. one 206pb atom has a mass of 205.974440 amu. (a) calculate the binding energy per nuc

Dovator [93]

The atomic number for Pb is 82
∴ Pb has 82 protons and 206-82 = 14 protons
The actual mass of Pb nuclei is
=(82 × mass of the proton) + (124 × mass of neutron)
=(82× 1.00728) + (124 × 1.008664) amu
= 207.6713 amu
The mass of lead which is given is 205.9744 amu
∴mass defect is
m = 207.6713 - 205.9744 = 1.6969 amu
=1.6969 × 1.66054 × 10⁻²⁷kg
=2.818 × 10⁻²⁷kg
The binding energy is E = mc²
C is the speed of light in vacuum = 2.9979 × 10⁸m/s
∴ E = 2.532 × 10×⁻¹⁰ J/mol
= 2.532 × 10⁻¹⁰ × 6.023 × 10²³ J/mol
= 1.53811 × 10¹⁴ J/mol
