Answer:

24e⁻ are transferred by the reaction of respiration.

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6 H₂O + 6CO₂

This is the reaction for the respiration process.

In this redox, oxygen acts with 0 in the oxidation state on the reactant side, and -2 in the product side - REDUCTION

Carbon acts with 0 in the glucose (cause it is neutral), on the reactant side and it has +4, on the product side - OXIDATION

6C → 6C⁴⁺ + 24e⁻

In reactant side we have a neutral carbon, so as in the product side we have a carbon with +4, it had to lose 4e⁻ to get oxidized, but we have 6 carbons, so finally carbon has lost 24 e⁻

6O⁻² + 6O₂ + 24e⁻ → 6O₂²⁻ + 6O⁻²

In reactant side, we have 6 oxygen from the glucose (oxidation state of -2) and the diatomic molecule, with no charge (ground state), so in the product side, we have the oxygen from the dioxide with -2 and the oxygen from the water, also with -2 at the oxidation state. Finally the global charge for the product side is -36, and in reactant side is -12, so it has to win 24 e⁻ (those that were released by the C) to be reduced.

A sample of oxygen gas has a volume of 3.24 L at 29°C. What volume will it occupy at 104°C if the pressure and number of mol are

ohaa [14]

Answer: The final volume of the oxygen gas is 4.04 L

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

Mathematically,

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$V_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

$V_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$V_1=3.24L\\T_1=29^oC=(29+273)K=302K\\V_2=?\\T_2=104^oC=(104+273)K=377K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{3.24L}{302K}=\frac{V_2}{377K}\\\\V_2=4.04L$

Hence, the final volume of the oxygen gas is 4.04 L

Draw the product(s) that are expected when tert-butyl bromide undergoes solvolysis in isopropanol, (CH3)2CHOH.

N76 [4]

Those reactions in which Alkyl Halide reacts with the solvent without the involvement of any acid or base is called as Solvolysis. In given problem tert-Butyl Bromide is a tertiary Alkyl Halide and we know well that tertiary alkyl halides undergo SN¹ and E¹ elimination reaction due to the formation of stable tertiary carbocation. In given example after the formation of carbocation when Isopropyl act as nucleophile it will produce ether and when it acts as a base it will produce unsaturated compound. The reaction along with both products is shown below,
