I believe this question has the following five choices to choose from:

 

>an SN2 reaction has occurred with inversion of configuration

>racemization followed by an S N 2 attack

>an SN1 reaction has taken over resulting in inversion of configuration

>an SN1 reaction has occurred due to carbocation formation

>an SN1 reaction followed by an S N 2 “backside” attack

 

 

The correct answer is:

an SN1 reaction has occurred due to carbocation formation

(05.02 LC)<br><br> How many moles of each element are in one mole of Sr(HCO3)2? (3 points)
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The number of moles of Sr in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 1 mole

The number of moles of H in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 2 moles

The number of moles of C in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 2 moles

The number of moles of O in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 6 moles

Explanation:

The given chemical formula of the compound is Sr(HCO₃)₂

The number of atoms of Sr in the compound = 1

The number of atoms of H in the compound = 2

The number of atoms of C in the compound = 2

The number of atoms of O in the compound = 6

The number of atoms of each element present in each formula unit of Sr(HCO₃)₂ is proportional to the number of moles of each atom in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂

Therefore;

The number of moles of Sr in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 1 mole

The number of moles of H in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 2 moles

The number of moles of C in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 2 moles

The number of moles of O in one mole of Sr(HCO₃)₂ = 6 moles.

A solar panel combines multiple photovoltaic cells. Which type of energy is used to power a solar panel? kinetic energy thermal
fredd [130]
<h2>Answer : Electromagnetic energy</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

The solar panel usually combines multiple photo voltaic cells. Electromagnetic energy is used to power a solar panel. As the electromagnetic energy or rather radiations from the sun reaches to Earth in the form of radiation which is then collected by these photo voltaic cells. As the term solar energy simply suggests that the energy is coming from the sun. Thus, electromagnetic energy coming from the sun was produced when electric charges inside the sun change their potential energy.
