The rate of Formation of Carbocation mainly depends on two factors'
1) Stability of Carbocation: The ease of formation of Carbocation mainly depends upon the ionization of substrate. If the forming carbocation id tertiary then it is more stable and hence readily formed as compared to secondary and primary.
2) Ease of detaching of Leaving Group: The more readily and easily the leaving group leaves the more readily the carbocation is formed and vice versa. In given scenario the carbocation formed is tertiary in all three cases, the difference comes in the leaving group. So, among these three substrates the one containing Iodo group will easily dissociate to form tertiary carbocation because due to its large size Iodine easily leaves the substrate, secondly Chlorine is a good leaving group compared to Fluoride. Hence the order of rate of formation of carbocation is,
R-I > R-Cl > R-F
B > C > A
Answer:
a. Sodium cyclopentanecarboxylate
b. No reaction
Explanation:
In this case, in the cyclopentanecarboxylic acid we have a <u>carboxylic acid</u> functional group. Therefore we have an "acid". The acids by definition have the ability to produce hydronium ions (
).
With this in mind, for molecule a. we will have an <u>acid-base reaction</u>, because NaOH is a base. When we put together an acid and a base we will have as products a <u>salt and water</u>. In this case, the products are Sodium cyclopentanecarboxylate (the salt) and water.
For the second molecule, we have the hydronium ion (
). This ion can not react with an acid. Because, the acid will produce the hydronium ion also, so <u>a reaction between these compounds is not possible.</u>

Answer: A 59.5 degree celcius
The equation that we will use to solve this problem is :
PV = nRT where:
P is the pressure of gas = 1.8 atm
V is the volume of gas = 18.2 liters
n is the number of moles of gas = 1.2 moles
R is the gas constant = 0.0821
T is the temperature required (calculated in kelvin)
Using these values to substitute in the equation, we find that:
(1.8)(18.2) = (1.2)(0.0821)(T)
T = 332.5 degree kelvin
The last step is to convert the degree kelvin into degree celcius:
T = 332.5 - 273 = 59.5 degree celcius
Answer:
1.49 × 10⁹ years
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the rate constant (k) for the nuclear decay of U-235
The decay follows first-order kinetics with a half-life (t1/2) of 703 × 10⁶ years. We can calculate "k" using the following expression.
k = ln2/ t1/2 = ln2 / 703 × 10⁶ y = 9.86 × 10⁻¹⁰ y⁻¹
Step 2: Calculate the time elapsed (t) so that the final amount ([U]) is 23.0% of the initial amount ([U]₀)
For first order kinetics, we will use the following expression.
ln ([U]/[U]₀) = -k × t
ln (0.230[U]₀/[U]₀) = -9.86 × 10⁻¹⁰ y⁻¹ × t
ln 0.230 = -9.86 × 10⁻¹⁰ y⁻¹ × t
t = 1.49 × 10⁹ y
