Answer:

The correct answer is;

Demand for gasoline in Orlando is price inelastic.

Explanation:

The elasticity is the degree of response to a change in price or quantity supplied to the the quantity demanded. An elastic demand responds positively to change in price, while an inelastic demand means that when there is a price increase, the quantity demanded remains the same and where there is a drop in price the quantity demanded remains constant.

If a small change in price results in a large change in demand then the good is said to be price elastic

In the question the price increases by 10% while the quantity demanded drops 5 % daily. Therefore it is price inelastic

Sulfur undergoes combustion to yield sulfur trioxide by the following reaction equation:
12345 [234]

Answer:

Therefore, the amount of heat produced by the reaction of 42.8 g S = <u>(-5.2965 × 10²) kJ = (-5.2965 × 10⁵) J</u>

Explanation:

Given reaction: 2S + 3O₂ → 2 SO₃

Given: The enthalpy of reaction: ΔH = - 792 kJ

Given mass of S: w₂ = 42.8 g, Molar mass of S: m = 32 g/mol

In the given reaction, the number of moles of S reacting: n = 2

As, Number of moles: n = \frac{mass\: (w_{1})}{molar\: mass\: (m)}

∴  mass of S in 2 moles of S: w_{1} = n \times m = 2\: mol \times 32\: g/mol = 64\: g

<em>Given reaction</em>: 2S + 3O₂ → 2 SO₃

<em>In this reaction, the limiting reagent is S</em>

⇒ 2 moles S produces (- 792 kJ) heat.

or, 64 g of S produces (- 792 kJ) heat.

∴ 42.8 g of S produces (x) amount of heat

⇒ <u><em>The amount of heat produced by 42.8 g S:</em></u>

x = \frac{(- 792\: kJ) \times 42.8\: g}{64\: g} = (-529.65)\: kJ

\Rightarrow x = (-5.2965 \times 10^{2})\: kJ = (-5.2965 \times 10^{5})\: J

(\because 1 kJ = 10^{3} J)

<u>Therefore, the amount of heat produced by the reaction of 42.8 g S = (-5.2965 × 10²) kJ = (-5.2965 × 10⁵) J</u>

Select all the correct statements, there is more than one.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Experiments to determine mechanisms involve looking at indirect evidence to help support or disprove a proposed mechanism.

Most intermediates are not typically isolated to determine reaction mechanisms.

Carbocations are very reactive and are typically not isolated for analysis.

Scientists can prove that a specific mechanism exists.

Evidence of intermediates sometimes can be seen using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Explanation:

The study of reaction mechanism and chemical kinetics often form the main thrust of study in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry.

We often want to know the actual processes involved in the conversion of one specie to another. Unfortunately, this information may have to be obtained indirectly by certain chemical reactions or by the use of new instrumental methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Many organic reactions have carbocation intermediates. These carbocations are relatively short-lived and are transient intermediates which are rarely isolated unless they are isolated in a molecular cage using a macromolecule or in superacids.

By intensive study, scientists can proof or disprove the authenticity of any proposed mechanism.

We must know that a transition state has partial bonds. It is often an extremely short-lived specie which cannot be isolated.
