Answer:

The least substituted product (anti-Markovnikov)

Explanation:

The ROOR is used in the addition reaction of HBr to an organic substance (an alkene for example).

In normal conditions (with no ROOR) the adition of the halogen will be performed in the most substituted C (following the rule of Markovnikov that says that the stability increases with the more substituted is the C).

But in presence of ROOR, the reaction takes other mechanism (free radicals), and the product in this case is the one with the Br added in the least substituted C.

What is the energy produced through cellular respiration called?

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

During the process of glycolysis in cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water. Energy released during the reaction is captured by the energy-carrying molecule ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

An ore is to be analyzed for its iron content by an oxidation-reduction titration with permanganate ion. A 4.230 g sample of the

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The balanced redox reaction equation is;

8H+ + MnO4^- + 5Fe2+ ---------> Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O

Amount of KMnO4 reacted = 31.60/1000 * 0.05120 = 1.62 * 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of MnO4^- reacted with 5 moles of Fe2+

1.62 * 10^-3 moles will react with 1.62 * 10^-3 moles * 5/1 = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles * 56 g/mol

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 0.45 g

Amount of iron in the sample = 0.45 g

Percentage of iron in the sample;

0.45 g/4.230 g * 100 = 10.6 %

Identify the neutral element represented by this excited-state electron configuration, then write the ground-state electron conf

sineoko [7]

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p³

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Excited state configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p² 3s¹

Unknown:

Ground state configuration = ?

Element symbol = ?

Solution:

Let us start by understanding what a ground state configuration entails:

A ground state configuration shows the lowest allowed energy levels of an atom. The excited state denotes when electrons have moved to higher energy levels away from their ground state.

The superscript in the configuration depicts the number of electrons in each of the sublevels.

We can use this number to identify the atom we are dealing with:

Total number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 7 electrons

The element with 7 electrons on the periodic table is Nitrogen.

Now, the ground state configuration:

In writing the electronic configuration of an atom, certain rules must be complied with.

Aufbau's principle states that the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. The order of filling is:

1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s etc

To fill the s-orbital = 2 electrons

p-orbital = 6 electrons

The outermost shell electrons are usually the ones excited.

Now, the 3s¹ shell is an excited one taking 1 electron from the second energy level;

The ground state configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p³

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Reaction A and B are unfavorable.

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy is an energy which that can be use to convert into useful work.

ΔG°=ΔH°-TΔS°

ΔG°= Gibbs free energy

ΔH° = enthalpy of reaction

T = temperature of eh reaction

ΔS° = Entropy change

If the Gibbs free energy of the reaction is positive than the reaction will be non spontaneous and the chemical reaction will be not feasible.
If the Gibbs free energy of the reaction is negative than the reaction will be spontaneous and the chemical reaction will be feasible .

According to given information in the question:

Reaction A and B are non spontaneous as their Gibbs free energy value is positive.hence both are unfavorable.
