HELP!!!! The freezing of methane is an exothermic change. What best describes the temperature conditions that are likely to make

this a spontaneous change? Any temperature, because entropy increases during freezing. Any temperature, because entropy decreases during freezing. Low temperature only, because entropy decreases during freezing. High temperature only, because entropy increases during freezing.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is low temperature only, because entropy decreases during freezing.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The relationship between Gibb's free energy, enthalpy, entropy and temperature is given by the equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

Where,

\Delta G = change in Gibb's free energy

\Delta H = change in enthalpy

T = temperature

\Delta S = change in entropy

It is given that freezing of methane is taking place, which means that entropy is decreasing and Delta S is becoming negative. It is also given that the reaction is an exothermic reaction, this means that the \Delta H is also negative.

For a reaction to be spontaneous, \Delta G must be negative.

-ve=-ve-[T(-ve)]\\\\-ve=-ve+T

From above equations, it is visible that \Delta G will be negative only when the temperature will be low.

Hence, the correct statement is low temperature only, because entropy decreases during freezing.

A solution made by dissolving 33 mg of insulin in 6.5 mL of water has an osmotic pressure of 15.5 mmHg at 25°C. Calculate the mo
Liula [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The molar mass of the insulin is 6087.2 g/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

\pi=iMRT

Or,

\pi=i\times \frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}\times RT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure of the solution = 15.5 mmHg

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

Mass of solute (insulin) = 33 mg = 0.033 g   (Conversion factor: 1 g = 1000 mg)

Volume of solution = 6.5 mL

R = Gas constant = 62.364\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the solution = 25^oC=[273+25]=298K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

15.5mmHg=1\times \frac{0.033\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of insulin}\times 6.5}\times 62.364\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\\text{molar mass of insulin}=\frac{1\times 0.033\times 1000\times 62.364\times 298}{15.5\times 6.5}=6087.2g/mol

Hence, the molar mass of the insulin is 6087.2 g/mol

The right line is a 90° clockwise rotation of the left line about the origin. Click the 90° clockwise button. Are these lines th
inessss [21]

Answer:

Switch the coordinates and change the sign of the second one by multiplying it by negative 1.

Explanation:

Here are some examples and a more general way to understand the problem.

Consider the point (1,1), a 90 degree rotation clockwise about the origin would move it into the 4th quadrant.

The new point is (1,-1) , similarly (-4,2)-> (2,4), (-4,3)-> (3,4)

We take a point p= (x,y) the the result of rotation p 90 clockwise about the orgin is a new point p'=(x',y')= (-y, x). .

In the case of p=(1,0) the new point is p'= (0, -1)

One can use a matrix where the first row is cos(a), sin(a) and the second row is

-sin(a) cos(a) for any clockwise rotation of a degrees about the origin.

If we let a=90 degrees we have

[0 1] as the first row and [-1 0] as the second row. So the matrix is:

|0 1|

|-1 0|

Call that matrix M

So a point p= (x,y) can be multiplied by M as follows Mp=p' where p' is the rotated point.

If p=(-4,2) then Mp

is M(-4,2) which after matrix multiplication means x'=0*-4+1*2=2 and y'=-1*-4+0*2=4

So p'=(2,4)

Try it with (1,0)

x'=1*0+0*1=0

y'=-1*1+0*1=-1

so p'=(0,-1) and (1,0)->(0,-1)

How about the point on the y axis (0,1), it should go to the point (1,0)

0*1+1*1=1 and -1*0+0*1 gives you the pont (1,0) ( we don't see the negative sign because -0 is just 0)

Draw the alkene formed when 1-heptyne is treated with hbr in the presence of peroxide.
Nimfa-mama [501]
<h2>Heptene formed is -</h2><h2>CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CHBr</h2>

Explanation:

The two possibilities when the peroxide is not present

  • CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-C≡CH +HBr → CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CBr=CH_{2}

  • CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CBr=CH_2 + HBr →CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CBr_2-CH_3

In presence peroxide,

CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-C≡CH+ HBr →CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CHBr

  • When peroxides are present in the reaction mixture, hydrogen bromide adds to the triple bond of heptane with regioselectivity.
  • This reaction is opposite to that of Markovnikov's rule which says that when asymmetrical alkene reacts with a protic acid HX, then the hydrogen of an acid is attached to the carbon with more in number of hydrogen substituents, and the halide (X) group is attached to the carbon with more in number of substituents of alkyl.
  • One mole of HBr adds to one mole of 1-heptane.
  • The structure of heptene formed is -

CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CHBr
