Carbon naturally occurs in two forms: diamond and graphite. Why do these two forms have very different properties?

The differences in the properties of diamond and graphite is as a result of how their particles are arranged in space. This space arrangement leads to distinct crystal structures for the two compounds. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in tetrahedral shape while in graphite the carbon atoms arrayed in planes.
 Hope this helps :)

Find the empirical formula of the following compounds:
Aneli [31]

The empirical formula of the following compounds 0.903 g of phosphorus combined with 6.99 g of bromine.

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

The simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound is the empirical formula of a chemical compound in chemistry. Sulfur monoxide's empirical formula, SO, and disulfur dioxide's empirical formula, S2O2, are two straightforward examples of this idea. As a result, both the sulfur and oxygen compounds sulfur monoxide and disulfur dioxide have the same empirical formula.

<h3>How to find the empirical formula?</h3>

Convert the given masses of phosphorus and bromine into moles by multiplying the reciprocal of their molar masses. The molar masses of phosphorus and bromine are 30.97 and 79.90 g/mol, respectively.

Moles phosphorus = 0.903 g phosphorus \frac{mol phosphorus}{ 30.97 g phosphorus}= 0.0293 mol

Moles bromine 6.99 g bromine\frac{mol bromine}{79.90 g bromine}=0.0875 mol

The preliminary formula for compound is P0.0293Bro.0875. Divide all the subscripts by the subscript with the smallest value which is 0.0293. The empirical formula is P1.00Br2.99 ≈ P₁Br3 or PBr3

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Use the Bromotriflouride catalyst, BF₃

Explanation:

The BF₃ is most likely to yield less desired side products. The effect lies in the reaction mechanism.

BF₃ is a Lewis acid. Its role is to promote the ionization of the HF. This is achieved through the electrophilic mechanism. The reaction mechanism is as follows:

2 - methylpropene + H-F-BF₃ → H-F + H₃C + benzene

butylbenzene + F-BF₃ → tert-butylbenzene + H-F + BF₃ (regenerated catalyst)

irinina [24]

Explanation:

The Order of Reaction refers to the power dependence of the rate on the concentration of each reactant.

The overall order of reaction is the sum of the individual orders of reaction with respect to the reactants.

Rate = k [A]²[B]¹

In the rate law above, the rate is second order with respect to A and first order with respect to B. The overall order of reaction is a third order reaaction given as; 2+ 1 = 3
