<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

(D) Molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration

<h3>EXPLANATION:</h3>

Diffusion is a passive process and doesn't require any energy. Not only water but every small particle can diffuse through the cell membrane. Also, diffusion is an essential process in plant cells too for example in gaseous exchange. An example of diffusion is pouring a drop of ink in the water.

suter [353]

The reaction of removing CO2 using LiOH is the following:

2 LiOH + CO2 -----> Li2CO3 + H2O

By solving the amount of CO2 the LiOH can scrub:

(3.50 × 10^4 g LiOH) (1 mol LiOH/ 24 g LiOH) ( 1 mol CO2 / 2 mol LiOH) ( 44 g CO2 /1 mol CO2) = 32, 083.33 g CO2 it can scrub

<span>Since number of astronaut = 32, 083.33 g / 9 (8.8 × 10^2) = 4 astronaut</span>

How many moles of oxygen must be placed

umka21 [38]

Answer: 0.245 moles of oxygen must be placed in the container to exert the given pressure at the given temperature. The Ideal Gas Law equation gives the relationship among the pressure, volume, temperature, and moles of gas.

Further Explanation:

The Ideal Gas Equation is:

$PV = nRT$

where:

P - pressure (in atm)

V - volume (in L)

n - amount of gas (in moles)

R - universal gas constant $0.08206 \frac{L-atm}{mol-K}$

T - temperature (in K)

In the problem, we are given the values:

P = 2.00 atm (3 significant figures)

V = 3.00 L (3 significant figures)

n = ?

T = 25.0 degrees Celsius (3 significant figures)

We need to convert the temperature to Kelvin before we can use the Ideal Gas Equation. The formula to convert from degree Celsius to Kelvin is:

$Temperature \ in \ Kelvin = Temperature\ in \ Celsius \ + \ 273.15$

Therefore, for this problem,

$Temperature\ in \ K = 25.0 +273.15\\Temperature\ in \ K = 298.15$

Solving for n using the Ideal Gas Equation:

$n \ = \frac{PV}{RT}\\n \ = \frac{(2.00 \ atm) \ (3.00 \ L)}{(0.08206 \ \frac{L-atm}{mol-K})( 298.15 \ K)} \\n \ = 0.245 \ mol$

The least number of significant figures is 3, therefore, the final answer must have only 3 significant figures.

λmax for the π → π* transition in ethylene is 170 nm. Is the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene greater than or less than t

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

Explanation:

The λmax is the wavelength of maximum absorption. We could use it to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy difference as follows:

For ethylene

E= hc/λ= 6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/170×10^-9= 1.17×10^-18J

For cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

E= hc/λ=6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/230×10^-9=8.6×10^-19J

Therefore, the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

<h3><u>Full Question:</u></h3>

The following compound has been found effective in treating pain and inflammation (J. Med. Chem. 2007, 4222). Which sequence correctly ranks each carbonyl group in order of increasing reactivity toward nucleophilic addition?

A) 1 < 2 < 3

B) 2 < 3 < 1

C) 3 < 1 < 2

D) 1 < 3 < 2

<h3><u>Answer: </u></h3>

The rate of nucleophilic attack of carbonyl compounds is 2<3 <1.

Option B

<h3><u>Explanation. </u></h3>

Nucleophilic attack is explained as the attack of an electron rich radical to a carbonyl compound like aldehyde or a ketone. A nucleophile has a high electron density, so it searches for a electropositive atom where it can donate a portion of its electron density and become stable.

A carbonyl compound is a $sp^2$ hybridized carbon atom with a double bonded oxygen atom in it. The oxygen atom pulls a huge portion of electron density from carbon being very electropositive.

In a ketone, there are two factors that make it less likely to undergo a nucleophilic attack than aldehyde. Firstly, the steric hindrance of two carbon groups being attached with the carbonyl carbon makes it harder for the nucleophile to approach. Secondly, the electron push by the carbon groups attached makes the carbonyl carbon a bit less electropositive than the aldehyde one. So aldehydes are more reactive towards a nucleophilic addition reaction.
