Nucleophilicity is a kinetic property. A higher nucleophilicity indicates that the nucleophile will easily donate its electrons

to the electrophile and that the reaction will occur at the faster rate. The reaction rate also depends on the nature of the electrophile and solvent. Rank the following reactions from fastest to slowest based on the nucleophilicity of the nucleophile.
a. CH3NH- + CH3--Br → CH3NHCH3 + Br-
b. (CH3)2N- + CH3--Br → (CH3)2NCH3 + Br-
c. H2N- + CH3--Br → CH3NH2 +Br-

The rate constant (K) is related to activation energy (Ea), frequency factor (A) and temperature (T) in Kelvin by the equation

R = molar gas constant

K = A(e^(-Ea/RT))

Taking natural log of both sides

In K = In A - (Ea/RT)

In K = (-Ea/R)(1/T) + In A

Comparing this to the equation of a straight line; y = mx + c

y = In K, slope, m = (-Ea/R), x = (1/T) and intercept, c = In A

a) From the question, m = (-Ea/R) = -1.10 × (10^4) K

(-Ea/R) = -1.10 × (10^4) = -11000

R = 8.314 J/K.mol

Ea = -11000 × 8.314 = 91454 J/mol = 91.454 KJ/mol

b) c = In A = 33.5

A = e^33.5 = (3.54 × (10^14))/s

c) K = A(e^(-Ea/RT))

A = (3.54 × (10^14))/s, Ea = 91454 J/mol, T = 25°C = 298.15 K, R = 8.314 J/K.mol

K = (3.54 × (10^14))(e^(-91454/(8.314×298.15))) = 0.0336/s

Which one of the following substances would be the most soluble in CCl4?
maria [59]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl_{4}) is a non-polar solvent. Whereas out of the given options, Na_{2}SO_{4}, H_{2}O, CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{2}OH, and HI are all polar molecules.

On the other hand, only C_{4}H_{10} is non-polar molecule.

Also it is known that like dissolves like.

So, being non-polar CCl_{4} will dissolve the give alkane, C_{4}H_{10}.

Describe the molecular structure of water and explain why the water molecule is polar
pentagon [3]

Explanation:

Hybridization of O in H_2O = sp^3

So, water molecule has four hybrid orbitals.

Two hybrid orbitals form 2 sigma bond with two H atoms.

Remaining two hybrid orbitals are occupied by two lone pairs.

Because of lone pair-lone pair repulsion, shape of H_2O becomes bent.

Water molecule is polar because of difference in eletronegativities of O and H.

O is more electronegative as comapared to hydrogen. So bonding electrons get attracted towards O atom which results in the development of partial negative charge on O atom and partial positive charge on H atoms.

Because of development of partial negative and partial positive charge, water molecule becomes polar.

The reaction of perchloric acid (HClO4) with lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is described by the equation: HClO4 + LiOH → LiClO4 + H2O
dem82 [27]

Answer:

A. 0.35 M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the volume and concentration of lithium hydroxide and the volume of chloric acid, we can compute the concentration of the neutralized acid by using the following equation:

n_{acid}=n_{base}\\\\V_{acid}M_{acid}=V_{base}M_{base}\\\\M_{acid}=\frac{V_{base}M_{base}}{V_{acid}} =\frac{46.9mL*0.75M}{100mL}\\ \\M_{acid}=0.35M

Therefore, answer is A. 0.35 M.

Regards.
