What is the approximate bond angle around the central carbon atom in acrolein?

Chemistry

Soloha48 [4]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The approximate bond angle around the central carbon atom in acrolein is 120°.

Explanation:

The structure of acrolein is shown in the attachment. 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°.

Coal, which is primarily carbon, can be converted to natural gas, primarily CH4, by the following exothermic reaction: C(s)+2H2(
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

A. The reaction will proceed forward forming more CH4

B. The reaction will proceed forward forming more CH4

C. Since the reaction is exothermic, raising the temperature will cause the reaction to proceed backward, thus forming C and H2.

D. Lowering the volume makes the gas particles to be more close together thereby enhancing their collisions leading to reaction. Therefore the reaction will proceed forward forming more CH4

E. Catalyst only reduce the activation energy so the reaction can proceed faster. The reaction will proceed forward forming.

F. The following will favour CH4 at equilibrium

i. Catalyst to the reaction mixture,

ii. Both adding more H2 to the reaction mixture and lowering the volume of the reaction mixture

iii. Adding more C to the reaction mixture.

Calculate the concentration of each species in a 0.240 m c6h5nh3cl solution.
amm1812
The solution for this problem is:
C6H5NH3Cl is a strong salt: C6H5NH3+ + Cl- C6H5NH3+ + H2O <-----> C6H5NH2 + H3O+ 
K = Kw/ Kb= 1.0 x 10^-14 / 3.8 x 10^-10= 2.6 x 10^-5 

=2.6 x 10^-5 = x^2 / 0.240-x 
x = [H3O+] = 0.00251 M 
pH = 2.60 is the concentration
