Answer:

ortho-hydroxy acetophenone form intramolecular hydrogen bonding. On the other hand, para-hydroxy acetophenone forms intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding:-

  • Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.
  • Partially positive end of the hydrogen atom is attracted to partially negative end of these atoms which is present in another molecule. It is strong force of attraction between the molecules.

The bonding can be intramolecular and intermolecular. ortho-hydroxy acetophenone can form intramolecular hydrogen bonding which means that hydrogen bonding exist within the same molecule. On the other hand, para-hydroxy acetophenone forms intermolecular hydrogen bonding in which the bonding is in between the different molecules.<u> Hence, more amount of energy is required to melt these molecules in case of para-hydroxy acetophenone. </u>

In the reaction, A -----&gt; Products, the rate constant is 3.6 x 10^−4 s−1. If the initial concentration of A is 0.548 M, what
swat32

Answer:

0.529

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction A → Products

Since the units of the rate constant are s⁻1, this is a first-order reaction with respect to A.

We can find the concentration of A at a certain time t ([A]_{t}) using the following expression.

[A]_{t}=[A]_{0}.e^{-k\times t}

where,

[A]₀: initial concentration of A

k: rate constant

[A]_{t}=0.548M.e^{-3.6\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}\times 99.2s }

[A]_{t}=0.529 M
