The definition of the speed of light is exactly 299,792,458 meters per second, so to find how far it travels in a time period, multiply the speed of light times the time. Aka c=299,792,458m/s where c is speed of light, m is meters, and s is seconds. So for example to find how far light travels in 5 seconds, multiply by 5.

Consider the following molecules and the description of the bonding present in each: CH3CH2CH2CH3CH3CH2CH2CH3 (C−CC−C and C−HC−H
denis23 [38]

CH3CH2CH2CH3 < CH3CH2CHO < CH3CHOHCH3

Explanation:

Boiling point trend of Butane, Propan-1-ol and Propanal.

Butane is a member of the CnH2n+2 homologous series is an alkane. Alkanes have C-H and C-C bonds which have Van der waals dispersion forces which are temporary dipole-dipole forces (forces caused by the electron movement in a corner of the atom). This bond is weak but increases as the carbon chain/molecule increases.

In Propan-1-ol(Primaryalcohol), there is a hydrogen bond present in the -OH group. Hydrogen bond is caused by the attraction of hydrogen to a highly electronegative element like Cl-, O- etc. This bond is stronger than dispersion forces because of the relative energy required to break the hydrogen bond. Alcohols (CnH2n+1OH) also experience van der waals dispersion forces on its C-C chain and C-H so as the Carbon chain increases the boiling point increases in the homologous series.

Propanal which is an Aldehyde (Alkanal) with the general formula CnH2n+1CHO. This molecule has a C-O, C-C and C-H bonds only. If you notice, the Oxygen is not bonded to the Hydrogen so there is no hydrogen bond but the C-O bond has a permanent dipole-dipole force caused by the electronegativity of oxygen which is bonded to carbon. It also has van der waals dispersion forces caused by the C-C and C-H as the carbon chain increases down the homologous series. The permanent dipole-dipole forces are not as easy to break as van der waals forces.

In conclusion, the hydrogen bonds present in alcohols are stronger than the permanent dipole-dipole bonds in the aldehyde and the van der waals forces in alkanes (irrespective of the carbon chain in Butane). So Butane < Propanal < Propan-1-ol

Use the reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) to answer the following questions
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) If N₂(g) and 3H₂(g) is added to the system , 2 moles of additional  ammonia will be produced .

b ) If pressure is decreased , less amount of ammonia will be formed, because forward reaction reduces the pressure. So, reaction will take place in reverse direction.

c ) Keq = [ NH₃ ] ² / [ N₂ ] [ H₂]³

d ) Substituting the given values in the equation ,

Keq = [ 6M ] ² / [ 3M] [ 4M]³

= 36 / 3 x 64 M⁻²

= 18.75 x 10⁻² M⁻² .

QUESTION 18
Levart [38]

Answer:

-43.3 °C

Explanation:

To find the temperature, you need to use the Ideal Gas Law equation. The equation looks like this:

PV = nRT

In this formula,

-----> P = pressure (atm)

-----> V = volume (L)

-----> n = moles

-----> R = Ideal Gas Law constant (0.08206 atm*L/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

By plugging the given values into the equation and simplifying, you can find the temperature. After you get a temperature, you need to convert it into Celsius.

P = 2.88 atm                              R = 0.08206 atm*L/mol*K

V = 3.76 L                                   T = ? K

n = 0.574 moles

PV = nRT

(2.88 atm)(3.76 L) = (0.574 moles)(0.08206 atm*L/mol*K)T

10.8288 = (0.04710244)T

230. K = T

Kelvin - 273.15 = Celsius

230 K - 273.15 = -43.3 °C
