POH = 14 - pH
pOH = -log [OH-]
Substitution Reactions are those reactions in which one nucleophile replaces another nucleophile present on a substrate. These reactions can take place via two different mechanism i.e SN¹ or SN². In SN¹ substitution reactions the leaving group leaves first forming a carbocation and nucleophile attacks carbocation in the second step. While in SN² reactions the addition of Nucleophile and leaving of leaving group take place simultaneously.
Example:
OH⁻ + CH₃-Br → CH₃-OH + Br⁻
In above reaction,
OH⁻ = Incoming Nucleophile
CH₃-Br = Substrate
CH₃-OH = Product
Br⁻ = Leaving group
Organic reactions are typically slower than ionic reactions because in organic compounds the covalent bonds are first broken, this breaking of bonds is a slower step, while, in ionic compounds no bond breakage is required as it consists of ions, so only bond formation takes place which is a quicker and fast step.
Answer:
ΔG° = -533.64 kJ
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reaction.
Hg₂Cl₂(s) ⇄ Hg₂²⁺(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
The standard Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) can be calculated using the following expression:
ΔG° = ∑np × ΔG°f(products) - ∑nr × ΔG°f(reactants)
where,
ni are the moles of reactants and products
ΔG°f(i) are the standard Gibbs free energies of formation of reactants and products
ΔG° = 1 mol × ΔG°f(Hg₂²⁺) + 2 mol × ΔG°f(Cl⁻) - 1 mol × ΔG°f(Hg₂Cl₂)
ΔG° = 1 mol × 148.85 kJ/mol + 2 mol × (-182.43 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-317.63 kJ/mol)
ΔG° = -533.64 kJ
Na only because cation is a positive ion whole cl is a negative ion in anion
The statement is false because endothermic reactions have a positive enthalpy change, because heat is being added to the system because it requires more energy to react
