Explanation:
There are two aspects of a reaction:
Thermodynamics:
Combustion of the compound is reaction with oxygen.
The carbohydrates contain more content of oxygen as compared to fats.
Hence, carbohydrates have lot of oxygen content which are already partially oxidized as compared to fats. Hence, combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
Kinetics:
The molecular reacts also shows that the combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
Tap water and rain water are both homogeneous, even though they may have different levels of dissolved minerals and gases. A bottle of alcohol is a man-made homogeneous mixture, from a fine Italian wine to a glass of Scotch whisky. In the human body, blood plasma is an example of a homogeneous mixture.
In this kind of exercises, you should use the "ideal gas" rules: PV = nRT
P should be in Pascal:
445mmHg = 59328Pa
1225mmHg = 163319Pa
V should be in cubic meter:
16L = 0.016 m3
R =
= constant
=
==> P1 * V1 = P2 * V2
V2 =
=
V2 = 0.00581 m3 = 5.81 L
Answer:
The OH group
Explanation:
Benzhydrol contains OH hydroxyl group in its molecule while fluorene does not. At first glance, one would think that OH, which contributes to hydrogen bonding would causes melting point of benzhydrol to be higher than fluorene. <em>However, </em>the structure of benzhydrol, which is 2 benzene rings connected to center hydroxyl carbon (PhCOHPh), allows for each benzene rings in benzhydrol to rotate until both rings are perpendicular to minimize repulsive force. This prevents the molecule from stacking on each other due to its non flat shape, and thus, lowering its melting point in contrast to flat fluorene molecule.
