Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reaction that we are considering here is quite a knotty reaction. It is difficult to decide if the mechanism is actually E1 or E2 since both are equally probable based on the mass of scientific evidence regarding this reaction. However, we can easily assume that the methylenecyclohexane was formed by an E1 mechanism.

Looking at the products, one could convincingly assert that the reaction leading to the formation of the two main products proceeds via an E1 mechanism with the formation of a carbocation intermediate as has been shown in mechanism attached to this answer. Possible rearrangement of the carbocation yields the 3-methylcyclohexene product.

What is the molality of a solution of water and KCl if the freezing point of the solution is –3°C? (Kf = 1.86°C/m; molar mass of

Elina [12.6K]

Some of the solutions exhibit colligative properties. These properties depend on the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. These properties include freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, osmotic pressure and vapor pressure lowering. Calculations are as follows:

<span> ΔT(freezing point) = (Kf)mi
3 = 1.86 °C kg / mol (m)(2)
3 =3.72m
m = 0.81 mol/kg</span>

. What is the first element on the periodic table?

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The first element in the periodic table is hydrogen.

Explanation:

Hydrogen has an atomic number of one, making it the first element of the periodic table. The atomic number of an element is just the number of protons in the nucleus, so hydrogen has one proton. The neutrons and electrons do not affect the atomic number. After hydrogen with one proton comes helium with two, lithium with three, beryllium with four, and so on.
