Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

The chemical reactions which are involved while solving this problem is there in the file attached and each chemical reaction is represented by a certain equation number

Lattice energy for rubidium chloride ( RbCl) is represented by the equation 6

Equation 1 represents the change in enthalpy for formation of RbCl

Equation 2 represents the sublimation reaction of rubidium

Equation 3 represents the ionization enthalpy of rubidium

Equation 4 represents the enthalpy of atomization of chlorine which means it describes the bond enthalpy of Cl2 molecule

Equation 5 represents the electron affinity of chlorine

To find the lattice energy for RbCl we have to use all the equations from 1 to 5 so that at last we get the equation 6

We have to perform operations such as

Equation 1 - equation 2 - equation 3 - equation 4 - equation 5

By performing these operations the intermediate compounds gets cancelled and at last we get equation 6

So Equation 1 ≡ ΔH $_{f}$ = -431 kJ/mol

Equation 2 ≡ Rb(s) ---> Rb(g) = 85.8 kJ/mol

Equation 3 ≡ IE1(Rb) = 397.5 kJ/mol

Equation 4 ≡ BE(Cl2) = 226 kJ/mol

Equation 5 ≡ Electron Affinity Cl = -332 kJ/mol

Value corresponding to the equation 6 will be the value of lattice energy of RbCl and the value is -695·3 kJ/mol

∴ Lattice energy for rubidium chloride is approximately -695 kJ/mol

Using the spectra data below, which structure best matches this data? c4h8o 1h nmr triplet at 1.05 ppm (3h) singlet at 2.13 ppm

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Butan-2-one

Explanation:

1. 1700 cm⁻¹

A strong peak near 1700 cm⁻¹ is almost certainly a carbonyl (C=O) group.

2. Triplet-quartet

A triplet-quartet pattern indicates an ethyl group.

The 2H quartet is a CH₂ adjacent to a CH₃. The peak normally occurs at δ 1.3, but it is shifted 1.2 ppm downfield to δ 2.47 by an adjacent C=O group.

The 3H triplet at δ 1.05 is the methyl group. It, too, is shifted downfield from its normal position at δ 0.9. The effect is smaller, because the methyl group is further from the carbonyl.

3. 3H(s) at δ 2.13

This indicates a CH₃ group with no adjacent hydrogen atoms.

It is shifted 0.8 ppm downfield to δ 2.13 by the adjacent C=O group.

4. Identification

The identified pieces are CH₃CH₂-, -(CO)-, and -CH₃. There is only one way to put them together: CH₃CH₂-(C=O)-CH₃.

The compound is butan-2-one.

Features passed from parent to offspring, such as eye color, is an example of what?

Olenka [21]

Parents pass characteristics such as hair color, nose shape, and skin color to their offspring. Not all of the parents' characteristics will appear in the offspring, but the characteristics that are more likely to appear can be predicted.

Propose a mechanism for the following reaction.

raketka [301]

First, recognize that this is an elimination reaction in which hydroxide must leave and a double bond must form in its place. It is likely an E2 reaction. Here is an efficient mechanism:
1) Pre-reaction: Protonate the -OH to make it a good leaving group, water. H2SO4 or any strong H+ donor works. The water is positively charged but still connected to the compound.
2) E2: Use a sterically hindered base, such as tert-butoxide (tButO-) to abstract the hydrogen from the secondary carbon. [You want a sterically hindered base because a strong, non-sterically hindered base could also abstract a hydrogen from one of the two methyl groups on the tertiary carbon, and that leads to unwanted products, which is not efficient]. As the proton of hydrogen is abstracted, water leaves at the same time, creating an intermediate tertiary carbocation, and the 2 electrons in the C-H bond immediately are used to make a double bond towards the partial positive charge.
In the products we see the major product and water, as expected. Even though you have an intermediate, remember that an E2 mechanism technically happens in one step after -OH protonation.

How would you describe the motion of plates in a divergent boundary?

Nutka1998 [239]

Divergent boundaries occur along spreading centers where plates are moving apart and new crust is created by magma pushing up from the mantle. Picture two giant conveyor belts, facing each other but slowly moving in opposite directions as they transport newly formed oceanic crust away from the ridge crest.
