Answer:

16.81 g of C₁₀H₁₃Cl

Explanation:

When 3-phenyl-2-butanol reacts with HCl it undergoes a substitution reaction to form 2-chloro-3-phenylbutane and water.

C₁₀H₁₄O + HCl ⇄ C₁₀H₁₃Cl + H₂O

The molar mass of 3-phenyl-2-butanol is 150.2 g/mol and the molar mass of 2-chloro-3-phenylbutane is 168.1 g/mol. The molar ratio is 1:1. Then, for 15.02 g of 3-phenyl-2-butanol, the theoretical yield is:

15.02gC_{10}H_{14}O.\frac{168.1gC_{10}H_{13}Cl}{150.2gC_{10}H_{14}O} =16.81gC_{10}H_{13}Cl

How many mL of a 1.48 M calcium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 36.0 mL of a 1.63 M hydrochloric acid solution
Lelechka [254]

The volume (in mL) of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ needed for the reaction is 19.8 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ —> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, HCl (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 1.48 M
  • Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 36 mL
  • Molarity of acid, HCl (Ma) = 1.63 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(1.63 × 36) / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

58.68 / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

Cross multiply

2 × 1.48 × Vb = 58.68

2.96 × Vb = 58.68

Divide both side by 2.96

Vb = 58.68 / 2.96

Vb = 19.8 mL

Water would have a much lower boiling point much like its other hydrides and it would loss its ability to dissolve polar substances plus it couldn't form water columns so no more cohesion between water molecules

Discuss how the following factors determine the rate of electron transfer in biological systems:
Cloud [144]

Answer:check explanation

Explanation:

(a). HOW THE DISTANCE BETWEEN ELECTRON DONOR AND ACCEPTOR AFFECTS THE RATE OF ELECTRON TRANSFER IN BIOLOGICAL SYSTEM:

Distance between the acceptor and the donor can affect in two ways; short distance and long distance effect.

Short distance causes

electronic orbitals of donor and acceptor directly overlap whereas in LONG DISTANCE reactions this coupling is indirect because of

sequential overlaps of atomic orbitals of the donor, the intervening medium, and the orbitals of the acceptor.

(b). HOW REORGANIZATION ENERGY OF REDOX ACTIVE SPECIE SURROUNDING MEDIUM AFFECTS:

the reorganized energy does not depend on the pre-existing intra molecule electric field. The charge transferred inside the molecule interacts with its aqueous surroundings.

Reorganized energy can be calculated using Poisson-Boltzmann equation.

in a given homologous series of hydrocarbons, the boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases. the
vitfil [10]

The boiling point of hydrocarbons generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.

<h3>What are hydrocarbons?</h3>

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds which here composed of hydrogen and carbon alone.

Hydrocarbons are grouped into families or homologous series based on a reactive group known as the gincyiial group

The homologous series include

  • alkanes
  • alkenes
  • alkynes

The boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.

How is enthalpy used to predict whether a reaction is endothermic or exothermic?
Dahasolnce [82]
If the enthalpy change is negative, then the reaction is exothermic because heat energy was lost to the surroundings.

If the enthalpy change was positive, then the reaction was endothermic because heat energy was gained from the surroundings!

Hope this helps!! x
