Be sure to answer all parts. Part 1 out of 2 how many electrophilic centers are present in acetyl chloride (ch3cocl)?
natima [27]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

            There is One electrophilic center in acetyl chloride.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                    Electrophile is defined as any specie which is electron deficient and is in need of electrons to complete its electron density or octet. The main two types of electrophiles are those species which either contain positive charge (i.e. NO₂⁺, Cl⁺, Br⁺ e.t.c) or partial positive charge like that contained by the sp² hybridized carbon of acetyl chloride shown below in attached picture.

                    In acetyl chloride the partial positive charge on sp² hybridized carbon is generated due to its direct bonding to highly electronegative elements *with partial negative charge) like oxygen and chlorine, which tend to pull the electron density from carbon atom making it electron deficient and a good electrophile for incoming nucleophile as a center of attack.

Valeric acid, HC5H9O2 (Ka = 1.5 ✕ 10−5), is used in the manufacture of magnesium valerate, a nerve-calming agent. What is the hy
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

[H^+]=0.00332M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the dissociation of valeric acid as:

HC_5H_9O_2 \rightleftharpoons C_5H_9O_2 ^-+H^+

Its corresponding law of mass action is:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][C_5H_9O_2^-]}{[HC_5H_9O_2]}

Now, by means of the change x due to dissociation, it becomes:

Ka=\frac{(x)(x)}{0.737-x}=1.5x10^{-5}

Solving for x we obtain:

x=0.00332M

Thus, since the concentration of hydronium equals x, the answer is:

[H^+]=x=0.00332M

Best regards.

How many molecules are there in 5H20?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The number before any molecular formula applies to the entire formula. So here you have five molecules of water with two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom per molecule. Thus you have ten hydrogen atoms and five oxygen atoms in total.

1. In what ways does an organism’s mode of reproduction impact the diversity of its offspring? (Asexual vs. Sexual)
Katen [24]

Answer:

<u>Asexual reproduction</u> = An exact copy of the reproducer

<u>Sexual reproduction</u> = Genetic variation into the organism if a random mutation in the organism's DNA is transmitted to offspring.

Explanation:

Example of Asexual Reproduction diversity - A red apple has apple seeds. You plant the red apple seeds, and it grows up to be no different than the apple before it.

Sexual reproduction Example of diversity -Two parents are of different ethnicities. The female gets pregnant, but because of the different genetics from both of the parents, the child will inherit their genetics + some random mutation in the DNA.  

This impacts the diversity of the offspring because it can be an exact copy of the reproducer (Asexual), or significantly different with some similarities if the mode of reproduction was sexual.

I really hope this helps you! Please tell me if it did or not. Good luck with your assignment/exam/quiz!
