Fossils are formed in different ways, but most are formed when a plant or animal dies in a watery environment and is buried in mud and silt. Soft tissues quickly decompose leaving the hard bones or shells behind

Select all that are true regarding stereoisomers,constitutional isomers, and conformational isomers
Tamiku [17]

Answer:To convert the model of one constitutional isomer to another constitutional isomer one needs to exchange 2 atoms/groups on different atoms.

To convert the model of one stereoisomer to another stereoisomer one needs to exchange 2 atoms/groups bonded to the same carbon.

To convert the model of one conformational isomer to another conformational isomer one only needs to rotate about single bond(s).

Explanation:

Constitutional isomers differ from each other in position of substituents. Hence if we interchange atoms or groups on two different atoms, we get constitutional isomers.

Stereo isomers posses different orientations in space. If two atoms or groups on the same carbon atoms interchange their spatial orientation, we have a different stereoisomer other than the original structure.

Conformers arise by free rotation across single bonds. Different conformers can be created by rotating single bonds.

Carbonyl fluoride, COF2, is an important intermediate used in the production of fluorine-containing compounds. For instance, it
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The concentration of COF₂ at equilibrium is 0.296 M.

Explanation:

To solve this equilibrium problem we use an ICE Table. In this table, we recognize 3 stages: Initial(I), Change(C) and Equilibrium(E). In each row we record the <em>concentrations</em> or <em>changes in concentration</em> in that stage. For this reaction:

   2 COF₂(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + CF₄(g)

I      2.00              0              0

C      -2x              +x            +x

E   2.00 - 2x         x              x

Then, we replace these equilibrium concentrations in the Kc expression, and solve for "x".

Kc=8.30=\frac{[CO_{2}] \times [CF_{4}] }{[COF_{2}]^{2} } =\frac{x^{2} }{(2.00-2x)^{2} } \\8.30=(\frac{x}{2.00-2x} )^{2} \\\sqrt{8.30} =\frac{x}{2.00-2x}\\5.76-5.76x=x\\x=0.852

The concentration of COF₂ at equilibrium is 2.00 -2x = 2.00 - 2 × 0.852 = 0.296 M

A sample of an unknown gas occupies 5.51 L at 1.31 atm. What pressure would thisgas exert in a 0.520 L container if the temperat
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

P₂ = 13.9 atm (3 sig. figs.)

Explanation:

The pressure (P), Volume (V) relationship with Temperature (T) & mass (n) held constant is an inverse proportionality. That is Boyles Law ...

P ∝ 1/V => P = k/V => k = P·V

For two pressure-volume conditions, the proportionality constant (k) remains constant where k₁ = k₂ and P₁·V₁ = P₂·V₂ => P₂ = P₁·V₁/V₂

Given:

P₁ = 1.31 atm.

V₁ = 5.51 L

P₂ = ?

V₂ = 0.520 L

V₂ = (1.31 atm)(5.51L)/(0.520L) = 13.88096154 atm (calc. ans.) = 13.9 atm (3 sig. figs.)
