Answer:

(a) The molecules begin to move farther apart decreasing their intermolecular forces and they escape the liquid state to enter the gas state.

Explanation:

As we put tea pot full of water on stove the heat transfer starts from surface of tea pot to the closest water molecule near the surface of tea pot, after becoming hot the water rises up and cooler water comes down. When water begins to boil their intermolecular forces begin to decrease and they start to convert in gaseous or vapor state.

Calculate the volume of the acid solution and the volume of the conjugate base solution that would be needed to prepare a buffer

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

This can be contradictory, depending on whether the 0.1 M

is the total species concentration or the concentration of each of the two components. I'll consider this to be the former...

VA− = 9.125 mL

VHA = 15.875 mL

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is:

pH = pKa + log [A−][HA]

We have a pH 4.5

solution of acetic acid and acetate, so from there we can get the ratio of weak acid to conjugate base:

[A−][HA]=10

pH − pKa = 104.5 − 4.74 = 0.5754

Now, if the total concentration is

0.10 M , then:

[HA] + [A−] 0.5754

[HA] = 0.10 M

⇒[HA] = 0.10 M 1.0000 +0.5754

= 0.0635 M

−−−−−−−−

⇒[A−] = 0.0365 M

−−−−−−−−

and these concentrations are AFTER mixing. Since the total volume is 50 mL , or 0.050 L, the mols of each component (which are constant!) are:

nA − = 0.0365 molL × 0.050L =

0.001825 mols

−−−−−−−−−−−−

nHA = 0.0635 molL × 0.050L =

0.003175 mols

−−−−−−−−−−−−

So, if both of the starting concentrations were

0.20 M, we can find the volume they each start with:

VA − = 1 L0.20mols

A− × 0.001825mols A− = 0.009125 L = 9.125 mL

−−−−−−−−

VHA = 1 L 0.20 mols HA × 0.003175

mols HA = 0.015875 L = 15.875 mL

−−−−−−−−−

And this should make sense, because the total starting volume is

25.000 mL , the total ending volume is twice as large; the total species concentration is half the concentration that both species started with.

Arrange the following chloroarenes in increasing order of their reactivity in nucleophilic substitution to form their correspond

pantera1 [17]

The question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below
..............................................................................................................................

Correct Answer: Option C i.e. I ~ III < IV < V < II

Reason:
During a nucleophilic subsitution reaction of chloroarenes, Cl- group is replaced by an nucleophile like OH-.

Order of reactivity, during such reactions depends on the electron density on carbon atom that is attached to Cl. Lower the electron density, greater will be the reactivity.

Among the provided chloroarenes, electron density on C atom will be minimum in case of compound II, because of presence of electron withdrawing group (-NO2) at ortho and para position. Due to this, there will be large number of resonating structures. This signifies greater electron de-localization, and hence largest reactivity for nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Followed by this, compound V will show greater reactivity, due to presence of -NO2 group at para and one of the ortho position. Compound IV will have less number of resonating structures as compared to compound II and V, hence it will display poor reactivity towards nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Finally, compound 1 and III will minimum reactivity towards nucleophilic substitution reaction, because -NO2 group present at meta position (compound III) will not participate in resonance.
