Answer:

To synthesize cis-2-methylcyclopentyl from methycyclopentanol, you need to replace the acetate hydroxyl group with acetate by inverting the configuration.  

Explanation:

To understand the process, you need to understand the nucleophilic mechanism taking place in the process. This is the first stage of the process. Hydroxide is a poor leaving group, to it must be converted to a good leaving group. To effect the change, it is necessary to use p-toluenesuphate.

p-toluenesuphate is favored because this can be prepared by a reaction that alters none of the bonds attached to the stereogenic center.

The reaction of p-toluensulfonate with potassium acetate in acetic acid effects the conversion to give the final product: cis-2-methylcyclopentyl.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

725.15 L

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between Na₂O₂ and CO₂ is the following:

Na₂O₂ + CO₂ → Na₂CO₃ + 1/2 O₂

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, 1 mol of Na₂O₂ reacts with 1 mol CO₂. So, the stoichiometric ratio is 1 mol Na₂O₂/1 CO₂.

Now, we convert the mass of reactants to moles by using the molecular weight (Mw) of each compound:

Mw (Na₂O₂) = (23 g/mol x 2) + (16 g/mol x 2) = 78 g/mol

moles Na₂O₂ = 96.7 g/(78 g/mol) = 1.24 mol Na₂O₂

Mw (CO₂) = 12 g/mol + (16 g/mol x 2) = 44 g/mol

moles CO₂ = 0.0755 g/(44 g/mol) = 1.71 x 10⁻³ mol CO₂

Now, we calculate the number of moles of CO₂ we need to completely react with the mass of Na₂O₂ we have:

1.24 mol Na₂O₂ x 1 mol CO₂/1 mol Na₂O₂ = 1.24 mol CO₂

In 1 L of respired air we have 1.71 x 10⁻³ mol CO₂ (0.0755 g), so we need the following number of liters to have 1.24 mol of CO₂:

1.24 mol CO₂ x 1 L/1.71 x 10⁻³ mol CO₂ = 725.15 L

A can contains a gas with a volume of 86 mL at 30oC. What is the volume in the can if it is heated to 65oC?
Ber [7]

Answer:

New volume of gas = 95.93 ml (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Old volume of gas = 86 ml

Old temperature = 30°C = 30 + 273 = 303 K

New temperature = 65°C = 65 + 273 = 338 K

Find:

New volume of gas

Computation:

V1T2 = V2T1

(86)(338) = (V2)(303)

New volume of gas = 95.93 ml (Approx)

1. In what ways does an organism’s mode of reproduction impact the diversity of its offspring? (Asexual vs. Sexual)
Katen [24]

Answer:

<u>Asexual reproduction</u> = An exact copy of the reproducer

<u>Sexual reproduction</u> = Genetic variation into the organism if a random mutation in the organism's DNA is transmitted to offspring.

Explanation:

Example of Asexual Reproduction diversity - A red apple has apple seeds. You plant the red apple seeds, and it grows up to be no different than the apple before it.

Sexual reproduction Example of diversity -Two parents are of different ethnicities. The female gets pregnant, but because of the different genetics from both of the parents, the child will inherit their genetics + some random mutation in the DNA.  

This impacts the diversity of the offspring because it can be an exact copy of the reproducer (Asexual), or significantly different with some similarities if the mode of reproduction was sexual.

I really hope this helps you! Please tell me if it did or not. Good luck with your assignment/exam/quiz!

A pure copper penny contains approximately 2.9×1022 copper atoms. Use the following definitions to determine how many ______ of
hammer [34]

Complete question is;

A pure copper penny contains approximately 2.9 × 10^(22) copper atoms.

1 doz = 12

1 gross = 144

1 ream = 500

1 mol = 6.022 × 10^(23)

Use these definitions to determine the following:

A) How many dozens of copper atoms are in a penny.

B) How many gross of copper atoms are in a penny

C) How many reams of copper atoms are in a penny.

D) how many moles of copper atoms are in a penny?

All answers can be rounded to two significant figures

Answer:

A) 2.4 × 10^(21) dozens

B) 2.01 × 10^(20) gross

C) 5.8 × 10^(19) reams

D) 0.048 mol

Explanation:

A) A dozen contains 12.

Therefore, 2.9 × 10^(22) copper atoms will contain;

(2.9 × 10^(22))/12 dozens = 2.42 × 10^(21).

In 2 significant figures, we have;

2.4 × 10^(21) dozens

B) 1 gross = 144

Therefore, 2.9 × 10^(22) copper atoms will contain;

(2.9 × 10^(22))/144 gross ≈ 2.01 × 10^(20) gross

C) 1 ream = 500

Therefore, 2.9 × 10^(22) copper atoms will contain;

(2.9 × 10^(22))/500 reams = 5.8 × 10^(19) reams

D) 1 mol = 6.022 × 10^(23)

Therefore, 2.9 × 10^(22) copper atoms will contain;

(2.9 × 10^(22))/(6.022 × 10^(23)) = 0.048 mol
