1. In the first step of the mechanism for this process, a phenoxide anion is generated. This phenoxide anion goes on to act as a

nucleophile via an SN2 mechanism, displacing the chloride on 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol. Why doesn’t the phenoxide anion act as a base to deprotonate one of the alcohols on 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol? Write a brief, specific explanation (1-2 sentences).

Answer:

See the explanation

Explanation:

In this case, in order to get an <u>elimination reaction</u> we need to have a <u>strong base</u>. In this case, the base is the phenoxide ion produced the phenol (see figure 1).  

Due to the resonance, we will have a more stable anion therefore we will have a less strong base because the negative charge is moving around the molecule (see figure 2).

Finally, the phenoxide will attack the <u>primary carbon</u> attached to the Cl. The C-Cl bond would be broken and the C-O would be produced <u>at the same time</u> to get a substitution (see figure 1).

The activation energy for a given reaction is 56 kj/mol. at what temperature would the rate constant be quadruple what is was at
Alex787 [66]

The rate equation is given as:

k = A e^(- Ea / RT)

 

Dividing state 1 and state 2:

k1/k2 = e^(- Ea / RT1) / e^(- Ea / RT2)

k1/k2 = e^[- Ea / RT1 - (- Ea / RT2)]

k1/k2 = e^[- Ea / RT1 + Ea / RT2)]

 

Taking the ln of both sides:

ln (k1/k2) = - Ea / RT1 + Ea / RT2

ln (k1/k2) = - Ea / R (1/T1 - 1/T2)

 

Since k2 = 4k1, therefore k1/k2 = ¼

 

ln (1/4) = [- (56,000 J/mol) / (8.314 J / mol K)] (1/273 K – 1/ T2)

2.058 x 10^-4 = 1/273 – 1/T2

T2 = 289.25 K

Which statements are consistent with Dalton"s atomic theory as it was originally stated? Why? a. Sulfur and oxygen atoms have th
Vlad [161]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Which statements are consistent with Dalton's atomic theory as it was originally stated? Why?

a. Sulfur and oxygen atoms have the same mass.

b. All cobalt atoms are identical.

c. Potassium and chlorine atoms combine in a 1:1 ratio to form potassium chloride.

d. Lead atoms can be converted into gold.

<u>Answer: </u>The correct options are b) and c).

<u>Explanation:</u>

Some of the postulates of Dalton's atomic theory are:

  • All matter is made of very tiny particles called atoms that participate in chemical reactions
  • Atoms are indivisible particles that cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction
  • Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties
  • Atoms of different elements have different masses and chemical properties.
  • Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.
  • The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound.

For the given options:

<u>For a:</u>

The statement is inconsistent with the theory as no two elements can have the same mass. Only atoms of the same element can have the same mass.

  • <u>For b:</u>

This is consistent with the theory as atoms of the same element are identical.

  • <u>For c: </u>

This is consistent with the theory as atoms combine in a simple whole number ratio.

  • <u>For d:</u>

The statement is inconsistent with the theory as atoms of one element cannot be changed to atoms of other element.

Hence, the correct options are b) and c).

Calculate the moles of solute dissolved in 4.2 dm3 of a 0.5 mol / dm3 solution.
Archy [21]

Answer:

Example

0.5 mol of sodium hydroxide is dissolved in 2 dm3 of water. Calculate the concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution formed.

Concentration =

Concentration = 0.25 mol/dm3

Volume units

Volumes used in concentration calculations must be in dm3, not in cm3. It is useful to know that 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3. This means:

divide by 1000 to convert from cm3 to dm3

multiply by 1000 to convert from dm3 to cm3

For example, 250 cm3 is 0.25 dm3 (250 ÷ 1000). It is often easiest to convert from cm3 to dm3 before continuing with a concentration calculation.

Question

100 cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid contains 0.02 mol of dissolved hydrogen chloride. Calculate the concentration of the acid in mol/dm3.

Reveal answer

Converting between units

The relative formula mass of the solute is used to convert between mol/dm3 and g/dm3:

to convert from mol/dm3 to g/dm3, multiply by the relative formula mass

to convert from g/dm3 to mol/dm3, divide by the relative formula mass

Remember: the molar mass is the Ar or Mr in grams per mol.

Example

Calculate the concentration of 0.1 mol/dm3 sodium hydroxide solution in g/dm3. (Mr of NaOH = 40)

Concentration = 0.1 × 40

= 4 g/dm3
