When the temperature of a 3. 0-l sample of a gas is dropped from 200°c to 100°c, what will be the final volume of the gas sample
ipn [44]

P1V1T1=P2V2T2 Add 273 to convert degrees Celsius to Kelvin:

∴200×25/298=250×V2/273, ∴V2=200×25×273/298×250, ∴V2=18.32L

<h3>Where is the volume equation?</h3>

The basic formula for volume is length, breadth, and height, as opposed to length, width, and height for the area of a rectangular shape. The calculation is unaffected by how you refer to the various dimensions; for instance, you can use "depth" instead of "height."

<h3>What is chemistry using volume units?</h3>

Volume, which is measured in cubic units, is the 3-dimensional space occupied by matter or encircled by a surface. The cubic meter (m3), a derived unit, is the SI unit of volume.

Determine if each of the following statements about chiral molecules is True or False and select the best answer from the dropdo
oee [108]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

-)<u> True or False: All R stereocenters are dextrorotatory. </u>

The absolute configuration is based is in specific rules that are not related to the ability to deflect polarized light. <u>FALSE</u>

-)<u> True or False: Chiral centers in organic molecules will have 4 different groups attached to a carbon. </u>

<u />

A chiral carbon by definition is a carbon with 4 groups. <u>TRUE</u>

-)<u> True or False: A racemic mixture has an optical activity of 0. </u>

In a racemic mixture, we have equal amounts of enantiomers, and this cancels out the optical activity. <u>TRUE</u>

-)<u> True or False: Normal linear amines can be chiral centers. </u>

<u />

In primary amines, we have 2 hydrogens. Therefore all the groups can not be different. So, is <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: Compound C has an optical activity of 0. </u>

<u />

We need to know the structure of the compound

<u />

-)<u>True or False: If the R isomer of a molecule has an optical rotation of + 25.7 degree then the S isomer of the molecule will have an optical rotation of -25.7 degree. </u>

<u />

If we have the exact opposite (as we have in this case) the magnitud of the optical activity value will remain and the sign will change. <u>TRUE</u>

-)<u>True or False: A CN is a higher priority than a CH2OH. </u>

<u />

In this case, a carbon is directly bonded to the chiral carbon. The carbon on CN is bonded to a nitrogen atom and the carbon on CH2OH is bonded to an oxygen. So, the CH2OH will have more priority because O has a higher atomic number. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: All molecules with chiral centers are optically active. </u>

<u />

We can have for example mesocompounds in which the optical activity is canceled out due to symmetry planes. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: To have an enantiomer a molecule must have at least two chiral centers. </u>

<u />

A pair of enantiomers is made between at least 1 chiral carbon. Enantiomer R and enantiomer S. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: Chiral molecules are always optically active. </u>

<u />

We can have racemic mixtures or mesocompounds with chiral carbons but without optical activity. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: A CH2CH2Br is higher priority than a CH2F. </u>

The "Br" atom is bonded in the third carbon (respect to the chiral carbon) and the "F" atom is bonded to the second carbon. Therefore CH2F has more priority than CH2CH2Br. <u>FALSE</u>

-)<u>True or False: Meso molecules with two stereocenters have a R,S configuration. </u>

<u />

On the compounds with R and S configuration at the same time can have symmetry planes so, we will not have optical activity. <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

<u>True or False: Diastereomers have the same physical properties except in a chiral environment. </u>

<u />

All diastereomers have the same physical properties. <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

<u>True or False: Compound H has an optical activity of 0. </u>

<u />

We have to have the structure of the compound.

<u />

<u>True or False: A C=C double bond is higher priority than a -CH(CH3)2.</u>

<u />

In the case of C=C, we can say that is equivalent to two carbon bonds without hydrogens. Therefore C=C has higher priority. <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

Calculate the pOH of a 0.0143 M NaOH solution at 25 ⁰C.
arsen [322]

Answer:

A.) 1.845

Explanation:

You can find the pOH using the following equation:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

Since NaOH dissociates into 1 Na⁺ and 1 OH⁻, the concentration of both ions is 0.0143 M.

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = -log[0.0143]

pOH = 1.845

How many grams of Na2CO3 must be dissolved into 155g of water to create a solution with a molarity of 8.20 mol/kg
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

135g Na2CO3

Explanation:

I'm going to assume you mean Molality which is mol solute/kg solvent

Molarity would be mol soute/ L solution

we know we have 155g of water which is .155 kg

essentially we have the equation:

mol/kg = 8.20

we substitute .155 in for kg and get:

mol/.155 = 8.20

Solving this  gives mol = 1.271

now we must convert to grams using the molar mass

Molar mass Na2CO3 = 106G/mol

so to cancel moles we multiply:

1.271mol x 106g/mol

= 135g
