Answer: Molecules that are optically active due to the tetrahedral arrangement of bonds around the carbon atom are often referred to as
<u>Chiral Molecules</u>.
Explanation: Chiral molecules have stereogenic centers. When plane polarized light is fall on these compounds they rotate the light either in clockwise or anti clockwise direction. The mirror images of chiral moleculecules are non-superimposable. Below few examples for molecules containing chiral centers are given.</span>
Answer:
Endothermic
Explanation:
The temperature of the water decreased.
The water lost heat.
The heat must have gone into getting the KNO₃ into solution.
So, the dissolving of KNO₃ in water is endothermic.
Answer:
Ammonia is a weak electrolyte, weak base.
Option e.
Explanation:
Ammonia can take a proton from water to make ammonium.
It is a base, because it takes proton.
When a compound can take protons, we know that is base, according to Bronsted Lowry theory.
We can't describe ammonia as a base, according to Arrhenius, but we know it is base according to Lewis, because the N from the ammonia can be a donor of its electron pair.
It is weak because an small amount of ammonia, can react to produce ammonium, between the protons of water. This is the equilibrium, where the ammonia is considered as the conjugate strong acid of ammonia.
NH₃ + H₂O ⇄ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ Kb
All the amines are considered as weak bases, because they look like ammonia, where the H of NH₃ are replaced by others chains.
------NH₂
-----NH-----
Answer:
1 billion
Explanation:
The computation of the number of atoms for C-14 is shown below:
Because it is mentioned
Half the isotope for carbon 14 is 5,730 years
Currently if there had been 4 billion it would equate to 2 billion
Now that the 2 billion would've been 1 billion in the next 5,730 years
And it'll become 3 half-life
Therefore the number of C-14 atoms is 1 billion
