Answer:

c) CH₃Cl

Explanation:

Due the relative abundance of chlorine and bromine. It is possible to determine which of the halogens is present in a mass spectrum of a organic compound:

The Cl-35, Cl-37 have a relative abundance of 75/25; Br-79 and Br-81 of 50/50.

For that reason, if a compound has a M/M+2 ratio of 75:25 you can be sure the compound has 1 Cl in its structure. Thus, the only possible structure is:

<h3>c) CH₃Cl</h3>

Explain three factors that can affect the size of a line in a spectrum.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:For atoms and molecules, the width of spectral lines is governed mainly by the broadening of the energy levels of the atoms or molecules during interactions with surrounding particles and by the broadening of the spectral lines as a result of the Doppler effect.

16. What is a pure substance formed when two or more different elementscombine called?A. compoundB. moleculeC. element
Lana71 [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Compound. Option A is correct

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

When two or more different elements combines, a compound is formed. For instance, if carbon and oxygen combines, carbondioxide is formed according to the equation;

C+O_2\rightarrow CO_2

From the reaction, carbon and oxygen are the elements while carbondioxide is the compound. Hence we can conclude that a pure substance formed when two or more different elements combine called compound.

The teacher said the volume of the liquid was 500 mL when measured a student found it was 499.7 mL what is the students percent
Natalka [10]

Answer:

<h2>0.06 % </h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

error = 500 - 499.7 = 0.3

actual volume = 500 mL

We have

p(\%) =  \frac{0.3}{500}  \times 100 \\  =  \frac{3}{50}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.06 % </h3>

Hope this helps you

The value of Ka for nitrous acid (HNO2) at 25 ∘C is 4.5×10−4 .a. Write the chemical equation for the equilibrium that correspond
kvv77 [185]

Answers and Explanation:

a)- The chemical equation for the corresponden equilibrium of Ka1 is:

2. HNO2(aq)⇌H+(aq)+NO−2

Because Ka1 correspond to a dissociation equilibrium. Nitrous acid (HNO₂) losses a proton (H⁺) and gives the monovalent anion NO₂⁻.

b)- The relation between Ka and the free energy change (ΔG) is given by the following equation:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

Where T is the temperature (T= 25ºc= 298 K) and R is the gases constant (8.314 J/K.mol)

At the equilibrium: ΔG=0 and Q= Ka. So, we can calculate ΔGº by introducing the value of Ka:

⇒ 0 = ΔGº + RT ln Ka

   ΔGº= - RT ln Ka

   ΔGº= -8.314 J/K.mol x 298 K x ln (4.5 10⁻⁴)

  ΔGº= 19092.8 J/mol

c)- According to the previous demonstation, at equilibrium ΔG= 0.

d)- In a non-equilibrium condition, we have Q which is calculated with the concentrations of products and reactions in a non equilibrium state:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

Q= ((H⁺) (NO₂⁻))/(HNO₂)

Q= ( (5.9 10⁻² M) x (6.7 10⁻⁴ M) ) / (0.21 M)

Q= 1.88 10⁻⁴

We know that   ΔGº= 19092.8 J/mol, so:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

ΔG= 19092.8 J/mol + (8.314 J/K.mol x 298 K x ln (1.88 10⁻⁴)

ΔG= -2162.4 J/mol

Notice that ΔG<0, so the process is spontaneous in that direction.
