What does a red shift indicate about a galaxy?

The only cause we know of that could shift the spectrum of a source toward longer wavelengths isthe source moving away from us. That's how we interpret the red shift when we see it, and that's where the whole idea of the expanding universe comes from. But ... just like gravity and the Earth going around the sun ... it can't be proved, so it's "only a theory".

Dehydration of 2-methyl-2-pentanol forms one major and one minor organic product. Draw the structures of the two organic product
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The major product is 2-methyl-2-pentene [ CH₃-CH₂-CH=C(CH₃)₂ ] and a minor product 2-methyl-1-pentene [ CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-C(CH₃)=CH₂ ].

Explanation:

Dehydration reaction is a reaction in which a molecule loses a water molecule in the presence of a dehydrating agent like sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).

<u>Dehydration reaction of 2-methyl-2-pentanol</u> gives a major product 2-methyl-2-pentene and a minor product 2-methyl-1-pentene.

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-C(CH₃)₂-OH (2-methyl-2-pentanol)→ CH₃-CH₂-CH=C(CH₃)₂ (2-methyl-2-pentene, major) + CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-C(CH₃)=CH₂ (2-methyl-1-pentene, minor)

<u>Since more substituted alkene is more stable than the less substituted alkene. So, the trisubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-2-pentene is more stable than the disubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-1-pentene.</u>

<u>Therefore, the trisubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-2-pentene is the major product and the disubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-1-pentene is the minor product.</u>

Given that w for water is 2. 4×10−14 m^2 at 37 °C. Calculate the ph of a neutral aqueous solution at 37 °c, which is the normal
alexgriva [62]

The pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37°C is 6.8.

<h3>What is Kw? </h3>

Kw is defined as the dissociation, which is also known as self-ionization, constant of water. this is an equilibrium constant, and its expression is:

Kw = [OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺]

Neutral pH determines that the concentrations of OH⁻ and H₃O⁺ are equal.

<h3>Calculation</h3>

Let us suppose concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ is x, to calculate it:

Kw =[OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺] = x²

x² = 2.4 × 10⁻¹⁴ M²

x = 1.5919 × 10⁻⁷ M

Hence, the concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ (x) = [H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M

pH = -log[H₃O⁺] = -log( 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M)

pH = 6.8

Thus, we find that the pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37 °c (which is the normal human body temperature) is 6.8.

How is stoichiometry used to calculate the amount of product from amount of reactant?
IceJOKER [234]
<span>Stoichiometry deals with the quantitative measurement of reactants and products in a chemical reaction. Let suppose you are given with following reaction;

                                            A  +  2 B   </span>→    3 C

According to this reaction 1 mole of A reacts with 2 moles of B to produce 3 moles of C. Now using the concept of mole one can easily measure the amount of reactants reacted and the amount of product formed, as...

                    1 Mole Exactly equals 6.022 × 10²³ particles

                    1 Mole of Gas (at STP) exactly occupies 22.4 L Volume

                    1 Mole of any compound exactly equals the molar mass in                                 grams

Therefore, <span>Stoichiometry is very helpful in quantitative analysis.</span>
