Is ice melting in a drink a chemical change?
konstantin123 [22]
Nope, it's a physical change. When ice melts it changes into liquid water, it's still water. Changes in which no new substances are formed are physical changes, hence this is a physical change.

"calculate the ratio of the velocity of hydrogen molecules to the velocity of carbon dioxide molecules at the same temperature"
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: 1:4.69

Explanation:

The ratio can be expressed as:

Ua/Ub= √(Mb/Ma)

Where Ua/Ub is the ratio of velocity of hydrogen to carbon dioxide and Ma is the molecular mass of hydrogen gas= 2

Mb is the molecular mass of CO2 = 44

Therefore

Ua/Ub= √(44/2)

Ua/Ub = 4.69

Therefore the ratio of velocity of hydrogen gas to carbon dioxide = 1:4.69

which implies hydogen is about 4.69 times faster than carbon dioxide.

Write the structure of the product that would be formed from the S(
prisoha [69]

Answer:The product formed on reaction with hydroxide ion as nucleophile is 2R-hexane-2-ol.

The product formed on reaction with water would be a 50:50 mixture of

2S-hexane-2-ol. and 2R-hexane-2-ol.

Explanation:

2S-iodohexane on reactiong with hydroxide ion would undergo SN² substitution reaction that is substitution bimolecular. Hydroxide ion has a negative charge and hence it is a quite good  nucleophile .

The rate of a SN² reaction depends on both the substrate and nucleophile . Here the substrate is a secondary carbon center having Iodine as a leaving group.SN² reaction  takes place here as hydroxide ion is a good nucleophile and it can attack the secondary carbon center from the back side leading to the formation of 2R-hexane-2-ol.

In a SN² reaction since the the nucleophile attacks from the back-side so the product formation takes place with the inversion of configuration.

When the same substrate S-2-iodohexane undergoes a substitution reaction with water as a nucleophile then the reaction occurs through (SN¹) substitution nucleophilic unimolecular mechanism .

The rate of a SN¹ reaction depends only on the nature of substrate and is independent of the nature of nucleophile.

The SN¹ reaction is a 2 step reaction , in  the first step leaving group leaves leading to the formation of a carbocation and once the carbocation is formed then any weaker nucleophile or even solvent molecules can attack leading the formation of products.

In this case a secondary carbocation would be generated in the first step and then water will attack this carbocation to form the product in the second step.

The product formed on using water as a nucleophile would be a racemic mixture of R and S isomers of hexane -2-ol in 50:50 ratio. The two products formed would be 2R-hexane-2-ol and 2S-hexane-2-ol.

Kindly refer the attachment for reaction mechanism and structure of products.

If the gram-formula mass of substance X is 180 g/mol, determine the molarity of the solution at Point E
Alina [70]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<u>= 5 M or 5 moles/liter</u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

At point E, 90 g of substances X are dissolved in 100 g of the solvent.

100g of the solvent is equal to 100 ml

Molarity is the number of moles of a substance in one liter of a solvent.

90 g of X are in 100 ml

But; the RFM of X = 180 g/l

Therefore; the moles of X in 90 g = 90/180

                                                        = 0.5 moles

Therefore;

0.5 moles of X are contained in 100 ml of the solvent;

Thus, molarity = 0.5 × 1000/100

                       =<u> 5 M or 5 moles/liter</u>
