Continental drift was a theory that explained how continents shift position on Earth's surface. Set forth in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, a geophysicist and meteorologist, continental drift also explained why look-alike animal and plant fossils, and similar rock formations, are found on different continents.
Answer:
See the image 1
Explanation:
If you look carefully at the progress of the SN2 reaction, you will realize something very important about the outcome. The nucleophile, being an electron-rich species, must attack the electrophilic carbon from the back side relative to the location of the leaving group. Approach from the front side simply doesn't work: the leaving group - which is also an electron-rich group - blocks the way. (see image 2)
The result of this backside attack is that the stereochemical configuration at the central carbon inverts as the reaction proceeds. In a sense, the molecule is turned inside out. At the transition state, the electrophilic carbon and the three 'R' substituents all lie on the same plane. (see image 3)
What this means is that SN2 reactions whether enzyme catalyzed or not, are inherently stereoselective: when the substitution takes place at a stereocenter, we can confidently predict the stereochemical configuration of the product.
A Lewis base is characterized as any species that can donate a lone pair of electrons the Lewis acid (which has a vacant orbital for the lone pair to bond with)
Answer:
None of the given options
Explanation:
Let's go case by case:
A. No matter the volume, the concentration of Fe(NO₃)₃ (and thus of [Fe³⁺] as well) is 0.050 M.
B. We can calculate the moles of Fe₂(SO₄)₃:
- 0.020 M * 0.80 L = 0.016 mol Fe₂(SO₄)₃
Given that there are two Fe⁺³ moles per Fe₂(SO₄)₃ mol, in the solution we have 0.032 moles of Fe⁺³. With that information in mind we <u>can calculate [Fe⁺³]</u>:
- 0.032 mol Fe⁺³ / 0.80 L = 0.040 M
C. Analog to case A., the molar concentration of Fe⁺³ is 0.040 M.
D. Similar to cases A and C., [Fe⁺³] = 0.010 M.
Thus none of the given options would have [Fe⁺³] = 0.020 M.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
<u> Name </u> <u>Formula </u> <u> Major species </u> <u> </u>
Zinc iodide ZnI₂ H₂O(ℓ), I⁻(aq), Zn²⁺(aq),
Nitrogen(I) oxide N₂O H₂O(ℓ), N₂O(aq)
Sodium nitrite NaNO₂ H₂O(ℓ), Na⁺(aq), NO₂⁻(aq)
Glucose C₆H₁₂O₆ H₂O(ℓ), C₆H₁₂O₆(aq)
Nickel(II) iodide NiI₂ H₂O(ℓ), I⁻(aq), Ni²⁺(aq)
- Glucose and nitrogen(I) oxide are covalent compounds. They do not dissociate in solution.
- The compounds containing metals are ionic. They produce ions in solution.
- ZnI₂ and NiI₂ produce twice as many iodide ions as metal ions.
