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.

The molar heat of vaporization of water is 40.7kJ/mol. How much heat must be absorbed to convert 50.0 grams of liquid water at 1
EleoNora [17]
During a phase change the temperature does not change since all of the heat is being absorbed in order to break the intermolecular forces.  Due to that, the formula will not need to have T in it and is actually q=nΔH(v).
n=the number of moles (in this case 2.778mol of water since you divide 50g by 18g/mol).
ΔH(v)=the molar heat of vaporization (in this case 40.7kJ/mol).
q=the heat that must be absorbed
q=2.778mol×40.7kJ/mol
q=113.1kJ
Therefore the water needs to absorb 1.13×10²kJ.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

How do cells reproduce? ∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵∵
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Cells divide to reproduce. There are two primary methods used, one for somatic cells, which compose the organism’s body, and one for reproductive cells, or gametes.

Scientists call the process of somatic cell division mitosis. Mitosis has six distinct steps in which the cell organizes and copies the DNA in the nucleus. Once copied, each new cell has its own copy of the DNA. The six steps of mitosis are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis. Some authorities consider the non-dividing portion of the cell’s lifecycle, known as interphase, to be one of seven steps involved in mitosis; however, interphase cells are not actively dividing.

Sex cells, such as sperm or eggs, must divide differently. Sex cells only possess one-half of the DNA that makes up a new animal. That way, when they combine, the resulting organism gets half of its DNA from its mother and half from its father. Because sex cells only want half of the DNA in each cell, they go through a different division process called meiosis. In meiosis, the cells split a second time, which yields four daughter cells rather than two as with mitosis; however, this provides each daughter cell with 23 chromosomes in contrast to the 46 chromosomes in somatic cells.
