Cycloheptatrienone is stable, but cyclopentadienone is so reactive that it can't be isolated. Taking into account the polarity o

f the carbonyl group, draw a resonance structure of cyclopentadienone that illustrates a reason for its instability.

Lorico [155]3 years ago
3 0

Answer and Explanation:

The resonance contributor in cyclopentadienone (as shown in the attachment below) results into the compound having a positive charge on the carbonyl group, C=O which accounts for a highly reactive anti-aromatic 4π system. And this illustrates the reason for its instability.

How many grams of NaOH are contained in 500 mL of a 0.80 M sodium hydroxide solution?
4vir4ik [10]

This is molarity: moles of solute/liters of solution. (Not molality)

1. Plug in what we know:

500 mL = 0.5 L

0.80 = moles/0.5

0.80*0.5 = moles

moles = 0.4

2. NaOH is given as 40 g/mole, so calculate the grams:

0.4 * 40 = 16 grams

answer: 16 grams

A 0.100 M oxalic acid, HO2CCO2H, solution is titrated with 0.100 M KOH. Calculate the pH when 25.00 mL of oxalic acid solution i
____ [38]

Answer:

pH = 4.09

Explanation:

molarity of oxalic acid in the solution

         = 0.1 x 25 / (25 + 35)

         = 0.0417 M

molarity of NaOH in the solution

          = 0.1 x 35 / (25 +35)

         = 0.0583 M

H2C2O4 + NaOH -------------------> NaHC2O4 + H2O

0.0417          0.0583                            0                0

0                      0.0166                         0.0417

now second acid -base titration  

NaHC2O4 + NaOH -------------------> Na2C2O4 + H2O

0.0417             0.0166                              0                0

0.0251                 0                                  0.0166         ---

now

pH = pKa2 + log [Na2C2O4 / NaHC2O4]

pH = 4.27 + log (0.0166 / 0.0251)

pH = 4.09

Cecil writes the equation for the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen below.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

C) to show that atoms are conserved in chemical reactions

Explanation:

When writing a chemical reaction, we should always consider the Mass Conservation Law, which basically states that; in an isolated system; the total mass should remain constant, this is, the total mass of the reactives should be equal to the total mass of the products

For this case, we should add the apporpiate coefficients in order to be in compliance with this law:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

So, we can check the above statement:

For reactives (left side):

4H

2O

For product (right side):

4H

2O
