Answer:

A one-step mechanism involving a transition state that has a carbon partially bonded to both chlorine and oxygen

Explanation:

The compound CH3Cl is methyl chloride. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction that proceeds by an SN2 mechanism. The SN2 mechanism is a concerted reaction mechanism. This means that the departure of the leaving group is assisted by the incoming nucleophile. The both species are partially bonded to opposite sides of the carbon atom in the transition state.

Recall that an SN2 reaction is driven by the attraction between the negative charge of the nucleophile (OH^-) and the positive charge of the electrophile (the partial positive charge on the carbon atom bearing the chlorine leaving group).

the red line observed in the line spectrum for hydrogen has 3.03x10^-19J, what is the wavelength, in nm, of this?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

λ = 6.5604 x 1016 nm

Explanation:

Given Data:

The energy of the red line in Hydrogen Spectra = 3.03 x 10-19

Formula to calculate Wave length

E= hv

Where E is Energy

h is Planks Constant = 6.626 x 10–34 J s

v is frequency

In turn

v= c/ λ

where c is speed of light = 3.00 x 108 m s–1

λ is wavelength = to find

Solution:

Formula to be Used:

E= hv………………………… (1)

Putting the value v in equation 1

               E= h c/ λ…………………… (2)

Put the value in equation 2

3.03 x 10-19 J  = (6.626 x 10–34 J s) x (3.00 x 108 m s–1) / λ ……………………….(3)

By rearranging equation 3

λ = (6.626 x 10–34 J s) x (3.00 x 108 m s–1) /3.03 x 10-19  J

λ = 6.5604 x 107 m

The answer is in “m”

So we have to convert it into nm

So for this to convert “m” to “nm” multiply the answer with 109

λ = 6.5604 x 107 x 109

λ = 6.5604 x 1016 nm

What is the molarity of a solution in which 55. 49 g of calcium chloride is dissolved in enough water to make 500. ml of solutio
PSYCHO15rus [73]

The molarity of a solution in which 55. 49 g of calcium chloride is dissolved in enough water to make 500. ml of solution is 1M.

<h3>What is molarity? </h3>

It is defined as number of moles of solute divided by volume of solution.

Given,

Mass of CaCl2 =55.49g

Molar mass of CaCl2 =40+35+35=110g

Mole= given mass/ molar mass

= 55.49/110=0.50mol.

Now, putting all values we get the molarity

Molarity =0.5×1000/500=1M

Thus, the molarity of given solution is 1M.

MgCl2 + AgNO3 → AgCl + Mg(NO3)2
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

MgCl2 + 2AgNO3 → 2AgCl + Mg(NO3)2

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want to balance it so...

The first thing I see is that there are two chlorines on the reactant side and one on the product side

Adding a coefficient of 2 would get 2AgCl2

Now there are two silvers on the reactant side, so add a 2 to AgNO3 on the products side. Now they are all balanced.

If that is not what you are looking for let me know!

5. You are investigating an arson scene and you find a corpse in the rubble, but you suspect that the victim did not die as a re
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

See the answer below.

Explanation:

Fire has three major components:

  • Heat
  • Smoke
  • Gases ( in form of CO, CO2 etc)

If the victim had died as a result of the fire, he/he would have inhaled smoke and hot gases from the fire. These components would have resulted in traces of burns and soot deposition in the trachea and lungs as well as traces of CO in the blood of the victim.

If the analysis of the victim's corpse does not reflect some of the results above, it can be effectively concluded that the victim has been dead before the fire.

<em>The single most important indicator of death by the fire would be the presence of CO in the blood of the victim's corpse. All others might be to a less significant degrees.</em>
