Electrophiles are reagents attracted to electrons.
Electrophiles tend to be electron-deficient and carry partial positive charges. They are attracted to species with lone pairs of electrons. For example, protons
have no electrons and tend to share ones with other species, hence behaving as electrophiles in aqueous reactions. In the reaction between
and ammonia
, protons would be attracted to lone electron pairs on nitrogen atoms in ammonia molecules, which carry partial positive charges.
The Lewis Acid-base theory define Acids as species that accept electron pairs in a particular acid-base reaction. Electrophiles, by definition, tend to accept electrons. Lewis acids thus behaves as electrophiles in acid-base reactions. In the previous example,
demonstrates acidic behavior and can be inferred as an electrophile.
Answer:
ΔSv = 0.1075 KJ/mol.K
Explanation:
Binary solution:
∴ a: solvent
∴ b: solute
in equilibrium:
- μ*(g) = μ(l) = μ* +RTLnXa....chemical potential (μ)
⇒ Ln (1 - Xb) = ΔG/RT
∴ ΔG = ΔHv - TΔSv
⇒ Ln(1 -Xb) = ΔHv/RT - ΔSv/R
∴ Xb → 0:
⇒ Ln(1) = ΔHv/RT - ΔSv/R
∴ T = T*b....normal boiling point
⇒ 0 = ΔHv/RT*b - ΔSv/R
⇒ ΔSv = (R)(ΔHv/RT*b)
⇒ ΔSv = ΔHv/T*b
∴ T*b = 80°C ≅ 353 K
⇒ ΔSv = (38 KJ/mol)/(353 K)
⇒ ΔSv = 0.1075 KJ/mol.K
Answer:
The particles in the neutral paper can shift, causing the paper to become polarized and attracted to the rod.
Explanation:
The neutral paper has an even distribution of its electrons throughout the paper. If a charged rod is brought near the neutral paper, this can cause the electrons in the paper to shift. If the rod is negative, the electrons will be repelled from the rod and cause the molecules in the paper to have a slight positive charge on the part of the paper closest to the rod. If the rod is positive, the electrons will be attracted to the rod and cause a slight negative charge on the side of the paper closest to the rod.
