Answer: chloropentane

Explanation:

When a hydrocarbon has a halogen atom, its properties will change because this group has a higher molecular weight and a higher polar moment that will be hard to defeat in order to reach the boiling point.

The Boiling point of the pentene is 30°C // pentane is 36,1°C // 2-pentanone is 101°C and chloropentane 108°C.

Simple hydrocarbons have lower boiling points compare with those with a functional group like the Oxygen in the 2-pentanone and the Chlorine in the chloropentane. On the other heand, Oxygen is not as electronegative and heavy like Chlorine, thus the chloropentane is the one with higher boiling point.

How many oxygen atoms are in 68.8mg Na₂S₂O₃ 5H₂O

guajiro [1.7K]

It should be 8 O atoms. 3O atoms in Na2S2O3 and 5O atom in 5H2O. The reason there are 5 O atoms are because the 5 in front of H2O means you multiply each atom in the compound by that number (like the distributive property). The H2 molecule becomes 10 Hydrogen atoms (5*2) and the Oxygen becomes 5 Oxygen atoms (5*1). Then you add the 5O atoms to the 3O atoms which equals 8

Identify reagents necessary to convert cyclohexane into 1,3-cylohexadiene: notice that the starting material has no leaving grou

Vinvika [58]

<span>1,3-cylohexadiene i synthesized starting from cyclohexane in following 4 steps.

1) Free Radical Substitution Rxn: Halogenation of cyclohexane in the presence of UV yield chlorocyclohexane.

2) Elimination Rxn: Dehydrohalogenation of chlorocyclohexane yields cyclohexene.

3) Halogenation of Cyclohexene (Electrophillic Addition Rxn) gives 1,2-dihalocyclohexane.

4) Elemination Rxn: When dibromocyclohexane is treated with KOH and heated it gives 1,3-cyclohexadiene as shown below,</span>

Pressure is this sample?

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

P = 164 Atm

Explanation:

PV = nRT => P = nRT/V

n = 10.0 moles

R = 0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K

T = 27.0°C = 300 K

V = 1.50 Liters

P = (10.0 mol)(0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K )(300 K)/(1.50 Liters) = 164.12 Atm ≅ 164 Atm (3 sig. figs.)
