Hello!
The approximate bond angle around the central carbon atom in acrolein is
120°
The structure of acrolein is shown in the figure below. From the structure, we can deduce that the central carbon atom is in an sp2 hybridization (Atoms with a double bond hybridize in an sp2 fashion).
Atoms with sp2 hybridization have trigonal planar geometry, in this kind of hybridization, bonds are oriented the farthest away possible from each other, to minimize overlapping and the angle that allows that is 120°.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
Two characteristics that make water a good choice for the recrystallization solvent for benzoic acid are
- Low solubility for benzoic acid at room temperature
- Less expensive
Explanation:
Characteristics of a Good Recrystallization Solvent:
- Cheap.
- High volatility.
- No reaction with substrate to be made pure.
- Insoluble impurities should not be dissolced by the olvent at all temperatures.
- At room temperature the solvent should have high solubility for soluble impurities well
- At room temperature the substance to be purified should be insoluble in the solvent.
As such water has both low solubility for benzoic acid at room temperature and water is cheap or readily available
Answer:
45200J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Heat of vaporization of water = 2260J/g
Mass of steam = 20g
Temperature = 100°C
Unknown:
Energy released during the condensation = ?
Solution:
This change is a phase change and there is no change in temperature
To find the amount of heat released;
H = mL
m is the mass
L is the latent heat of vaporization
Insert the parameters and solve;
H = 20g x 2260J/g
H = 45200J
Answer:
It leads to new jobs that search for innovative ways to control emissions.
Explanation:
Publishing a report that is a revised list of green house gases by scientists underscores the importance of new new jobs that seek ways of controlling emissions. The publication will inspire scientific research into control of emission of greenhouse gases. This will create new jobs for scientists who will be charged with the responsibility of ensuring that emission of Tue newly discovered greenhouse gasses is greatly reduced.
Several scientists earn a living by actively carrying out research on control of the emission of greenhouse gasses.
