The coefficient of performance (cop) of a refrigerator is defined as the ratio of " the work necessary to heat or cool something usefully."

The usable heating or cooling delivered to work required ratio, also known as the coefficient of performance, or COP, of a heat pump, refrigerator, as well as air conditioning system. Higher efficiency, less energy (power) usage, and thus reduced operational costs are all related to higher COPs.

Coefficient of performance formula:

$K = Q_{H} / W_{in}$

where, K = Coefficient of performance, $Q_{H}$ = heat of pumps output, $W_{in}$ = work required by the system.

It is refrigeration's coefficient of performance (COP) will always be greater than 1.

Therefore, the coefficient of performance (cop) of a refrigerator is defined as the ratio of " the work necessary to heat or cool something usefully."

Show how you might synthesize this compound from an alkyl bromide and a nucleophile in an SN2 reaction. Use the wedge/hash bond

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

See the image 1

Explanation:

If you look carefully at the progress of the SN2 reaction, you will realize something very important about the outcome. The nucleophile, being an electron-rich species, must attack the electrophilic carbon from the back side relative to the location of the leaving group. Approach from the front side simply doesn't work: the leaving group - which is also an electron-rich group - blocks the way. (see image 2)

The result of this backside attack is that the stereochemical configuration at the central carbon inverts as the reaction proceeds. In a sense, the molecule is turned inside out. At the transition state, the electrophilic carbon and the three 'R' substituents all lie on the same plane. (see image 3)

What this means is that SN2 reactions whether enzyme catalyzed or not, are inherently stereoselective: when the substitution takes place at a stereocenter, we can confidently predict the stereochemical configuration of the product.
