Answer:

p-fluoronitrobenzene and sodium phenoxide is more appropriate

Explanation:

An ipso substitution is required to form p-nitrophenyl phenyl ether.

For this ipso substitution, an alkoxide anion needs to attack as a nucleophile at the carbon atom attached to fluorine atom and thereby substitute that F atom.

p-nitrophenoxide is an weak nucleophile as compared to phenoxide due to presence of electron withdrawing resonating effect of nitro group at para position.

p-fluoronitrobenzene is a good choice for nucleophilic attack by alkoxide anion as compared to fluorobenzene due to higher positive charge density at carbon atom directly attached to F atom. Higher positive charge density arises due to presence of electron withdrawing resonating effect og nitro group at para position.

So, p-fluoronitrobenzene and sodium phenoxide is more appropriate

The equilibrium reaction below has the Kc = 0.254 at 25°C. If the temperature of the system at equilibrium is decreased to 0°C,
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The equilibrium shifts towards reagents

Explanation:

Is known Kc=\frac{[products]}{[reagents]}  rised to the power of their number of moles in the balanced reaction. When you have a system at equilibrium with Kc < 1, it means [products] < [reagents] and the system needs energy to react, so if you decrease tempeture the equilibrium shifts towards reagents and less products will be created.

This efect can be discribed with Van´t Hoff equation: ln(\frac{K1}{K2}) =-\frac{dH}{R} (\frac{1}{T1} -\frac{1}{T2} ) where we can see that if we decrease temperature (this is T2<T1) in consecuense K2<K1 and reaction doesn´t happen.

When a sample of rust was mixed with acid, the rust changed into two simpler substances: W and Z. The substances W and Z could n
julia-pushkina [17]

here can be a number of chemical processes by which a compounds can be broken down into simpler substances. The most common and wide-spread of such processes is Catabolism. Along with anabolism, catabolism make up the metabolism process for living organisms. In catabolism, complex chemical molecules (such as proteins, polysaccharides, etc.) are broken down into simpler molecules (such as amino acids, monosaccharides, etc.). This is often accompanied by release of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) molecules and intermediate metabolites (which can be used by the organism in the anabolic processes). The energy thus generated is used for operation and maintenance of cells (and consequently, the body).  

Other processes that break down chemical substances into simpler substances, include depolymerization, decomposition, etc.

Hope this helps.

Why do we use 51.0mL of NaOH but only 50.0mL of HCl?
bixtya [17]

Answer

Na OH reacts with H Cl and forms Na Cl and H₂O

NaOH + HCl   →   NaCl + H₂O                                              

Here we can see that  1 mole of NaOH reacting with 1 mole of HCl and forming 1 mole of NaCl and 1 mole of H₂O

when  NaOH and HCl are added together in equal amount then they will completely neutralize each other but NaOH is hygroscopic in nature which means it can absorb water from air so it will not be weighted accurately.

hence, for neutralization we will take extra NaOH.
