Chemistry

Answer:

Inspiration

Explanation:

This question is on application of Boyle's law; <u>pressure is inversely proportional to volume</u>.when we inhale air, the diaphragm and the muscles in the ribs contract thus increasing the volume in the lungs.Increased volume of the lungs cause the pressure to decrease.During exhaling, the diaphragm and muscles in the ribs relax, making the lungs to recoil and reduce in volume to force air out.Pressure in the lungs is increased than that in the environment making air to move out.

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of water with mass of 27.0 g at 20.0°C to 45.0°C?

ohaa [14]

Answer:

2835 J

Explanation:

Take the specific heat capacity of water as 4.2 J/ g°C.

Energy (heat) = mass x specific heat capacity x change in temperature

(E= mcΔT)

E = 27 x 4.2 x (45-20)

E = 2835 J

Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the formation of an acetal from acidic methanol and 4-methylpentan-2-one in the fewest steps

morpeh [17]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

This reaction is known as Ketone hydrolisis in acid medium. This involves the formation of an hemi cetal, and then, the acetal. This is often used to convert ketones or aldehydes in ethers.

The first step involves the reaction with the acid. The carbonile reacts with the acid and forms an alcohol there. The next step is the reaction of the alcohol, in this case, the methanol to form the hemi cetal. Then in the third step, we repeat the first step, using acid to turn the OH group into a great leaving group such water. Then the water leaves the molecule, leaving the space wide open in the next step for methanol, and the acetal is formed.

See picture for the curved arrow mechanism
