A carbon which is attached to four different atoms or group of atoms with different environment is called as
Chiral Carbon or
Asymmetric Carbon.
Non-<span>
superimposable:
</span> The mirror image (molecule) of chiral carbon cotaining compounds are Non.Superimposable on each other. They are called enantiomers of each other.
Polarized Light and Chiral Carbon: When a polarized light is allowed to fall on either enantiomer of chiral compound, it is rotated other clockwise or anti-clockwise.
Examples: Below are three axamples of compounds containing chiral carbon.
Answer:
ΔU = −55.45 kJ
Explanation:
From first law of thermodynamics in chemistry, we have;
ΔU = Q + W
where;
ΔU is change in internal energy
Q is the net heat transfer
W is the net work done
We are given;
Q = 74.6 kJ
But Q will be negative since heat is released
Thus;
ΔU = -74.6 kJ + W
We are given;
Constant pressure; P = 35 atm = 35 × 101325 = 3546375 N/m²
Volume before reaction; Vi = 8.2 L = 0.0082 m³
Volume after reaction; V_f = 2.8 L = 0.0028 m³
Now,
W = -P(V_f - V_i)
W = - 3546375(0.0028 - 0.0082)
W = 19.15 KJ
Thus;
ΔU = Q + W
ΔU = -74.6 kJ + 19.15 KJ =
ΔU = −55.45 kJ
Carbohydrates is the substance that makes up fats
Answer:

The reactant that is reduced is 
Explanation:
The complete equation is as below:

<em>Recall that oxidation involves the gain of electrons while reduction involves the loss of electrons.</em>
In the above reaction,
loses electrons to coenzyme Q and becomes reduced to FAD, hence the oxidizing agent. Coenzyme Q gains electrons and becomes oxidized to
, hence the reducing agent.
<u>In order words, </u>
<u> is reduced while coenzyme Q is oxidized.</u>
