What is the volume of 0.1 mole of methane (CH4) ? (One mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L under certain conditions of temperature a
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Option A = 2.2 L

Explanation:

Given data:

volume of one mole of gas = 22.4 L

Volume of 0.1 mole of gas at same condition = ?

Solution:

It is known that one mole of gas at STP occupy 22.4 L volume. The standard temperature is 273.15 K and standard pressure is 1 atm.

For 0.1 mole of methane.

0.1/1 × 22.4 = 2.24 L

0.1 mole of methane occupy 2.24 L volume.

Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the reaction between (2S,3S)-3,5-dimethylhexan-2-ol and PCl3. Note the specific instructions
Vikki [24]

Answer:

(2R,3S)-2-chloro-3,5-dimethylhexane

Explanation:

As first step we have the <u>attack of the OH group</u> to the P atom in the PCl3 and one of the Cl atoms would leave. Then we will have a <u>rearrangement</u> to produce a <u>double bond </u>with the oyxgen on the OH. Finally the Cl produced will a<u>ttack the carbon</u> in a <u>Sn2 substitution reaction</u> to produce the halide with an <u>opposite configuration</u>.
