Tenormin, a member of the group of drugs known as beta-blockers, is used to treat high blood pressure and improve survival after

a heart attack. It works by slowing down the heart to reduce its workload. Which atom in Tenormin is the most basic?

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

In the compound tenormin, there are two highly electronegative atoms capable of accepting electrons; oxygen and nitrogen. Oxygen is more electronegative than nitrogen.

However, the oxygen atom in tenormin is bonded to carbon in a carbonyl bond. Recall that the carbonyl bond is polar and the direction of the dipole is towards the oxygen atom. Looking at the structure of tenormin, it is clear that the electron density of the bond tends towards the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group. Electron density is withdrawn from the adjacent nitrogen atom of the amine group via mesomeric and inductive mechanism towards the more electronegative oxygen atom.

On the other side of the structure, there are two oxygen atoms. These oxygen atoms are more electronegative than nitrogen thus they are more basic.

Hence the oxygen atom is the most basic atom in the compound tenormin.

What is frequency? How can sound wave having different frequencies have the same speed​
sashaice [31]

Answer:

The relationship of the speed of sound, its frequency, and wavelength is the same as for all waves: vw = fλ, where vw is the speed of sound, f is its frequency, and λ is its wavelength. ... The more rigid (or less compressible) the medium, the faster the speed of sound

What is the molarity of a naoh solution if 39.1 ml of a 0.112 m h2so4 solution is required to neutralize a 25.0-ml sample of the
aleksandrvk [35]
The reaction between NaOH and H₂SO₄ is as follows;
2NaOH + H₂SO₄ ---> Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry  of base to acid is 2:1
NaOH is a strong acid and H₂SO₄ is a strong acid, therefore complete ionization into their respective ions takes place.
number of acid moles reacted - 0.112 M / 1000 mL/L x 39.1 mL = 0.0044 mol
the number of base moles required for neutralisation = 0.0044 x 2 = 0.0088 mol
Number of NaOH moles in 25.0 mL - 0.0088 mol
Therefore in 1000 mL  - 0.0088 mol/ 25.0 mL x 1000 mL/L = 0.352 mol/L
Therefore molarity of NaOH - 0.352 M

Which of these compounds has the correct chemical formula? 1. ba3po4 2. (nh4)2so4 3. mg2oh 4. lif2 5. caoh?
sergiy2304 [10]
Ba3PO4 is not neutral, it is positive.  (NH4)2SO4 is neutral, the charges cancel.
Mg2OH is not neutral, it is positive.  LiF2 is not neutral, it is negative.  CaOH is not neutral, it is positive.  The answer is (NH4)2SO4, correct ions will have a neutral charge.
