How is the composition of a meteorite relevant to finding out the composition of earth’s core?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Nuetrik [128]2 years ago
7 0
Since the belief is that the Earth was formed by an
enormous number of collisions of meteors, the
iron would have collected at the core due to its
mass. Many meteorites are about the same age as
the solar system so they may resemble the
material at the core.

Explanation:

Since scientists think planets and meteorites were made at the same time and in the same place, it seems logical that whatever a meteorite is made of is also what planets are made of.

Which of the following is not a possible termination step in the free radical chlorination of methane? Group of answer choices ∙
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer: first option is not a termination

∙CH3 + Cl2 → CH3Cl + Cl∙

Explanation:

Since a radical is formed as part of the product it means it's a propagation step and not a termination step, at termination no free radical exist as product

The Lucas test has _______ results based on the type of alcohol present because the reaction involves a _________, which is ____
Olin [163]

Answer:

1) positive

2) carbocation

3) most stable

4) faster

Explanation:

A common test for the presence of alcohols can be achieved using the Lucas reagent. Lucas reagent is a mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and zinc chloride.

The reaction of Lucas reagent reacts with alcohols leading to the formation of an alkyl chloride. Since the reaction proceeds via a carbocation mechanism, tertiary alcohols give an immediate reaction. Once a tertiary alcohol is mixed with Lucas reagent, the solution turns cloudy almost immediately indicating an instant positive reaction.

Secondary alcohols may turn cloudy within five minutes of mixing the solutions. Primary alcohols do not significantly react with Lucas reagent obviously because they do not form stable carbocations.

Therefore we can use the Lucas reagent to distinguish between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.

Calcula la cantidad de gramos que hay en 12,5 mol de NaCl (Masa Na: 23,0; Cl: 35,5).
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

731.25 g

Explanation:

The question asks us to calculate the mass of 12.5 moles of NaCl. The individual relative atomic masses of the elements were supplied. We must first obtain the molar mass of sodium chloride as follows;

Molar mass of sodium chloride= 23.0 + 35.5 = 58.5 gmol-1

From the formula;

Number of moles (n) = mass /molar mass

Number of moles of sodium chloride= 12.5 moles

Mass of sodium = The unknown

Molar mass of sodium chloride= 58.5gmol-1

Mass of sodium chloride= number of moles × molar mass

Mass of sodium chloride= 12.5 × 58.5

Mass of sodium chloride= 731.25 g
