Answer:

Δ N = -1

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

2 SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2 SO3(g)

For 2 moles of SO2 we need 1 mol of O2 to produce 2 moles of SO3

Step 2: Calculate Δ

Δ N wNill be the sum of moles of products minus the sum of moles of reactants.

Number of moles of products = number of moles of SO3 = 2

Number of moles of reactants = number of moles of SO2 + number of moles of O2 = 2 + 1 = 3

Δ N = 2 - 3 = -1

Draw the structural formula of the major product of the reaction of (S)-2,2,3-trimethyloxirane with MeOH, H . Use the wedge/hash

Katarina [22]

Answer:

(S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol

Explanation:

In this case, we have an epoxide opening in acid medium. The first step then is the protonation of the oxygen. Then the epoxide is broken to generate the most stable carbocation. The nucleophile ( $CH_3OH$ ) will attack the carbocation generating a new bond. Finally, the oxygen is deprotonated to obtain an ether functional group and we will obtain the molecule (S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol.

See figure 1

Why are fixed resistors’ values indicated by color bands rather than printing the numeric value on their exterior?

gladu [14]

Because there are so many different values of numbers, it would be impractical to use 1Ω, 2Ω, 3Ω... etc... Using colored bands helps make reading it a little easier to the trained eye. There are hundreds of thousands, if not tens of millions of different resistors would need to exist to cover every value. So you just use something called "preferred values" with their resistance values posted on them instead.

Which of the following elements is the smallest?

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The atomic radius of elements are used to estimate the sizes of elements. The atomic radius is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.

To solve this problem we will obtain the atomic radius values of the given elements from a standard atomic radius table;

Si 111 pm

P 98 pm

Cl 79 pm

S 87pm

pm = picometer

We see that chlorine has the least atomic radius

What is the pH of a solution with a H+ ion of 2×10-¹²?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

11.7

Explanation:

The pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions. If the concentration is 2×10-¹² the the pH will be -log(2×10-¹²) which is 11.698 which can be round up to 11.7.

Can gravity be considered a force? Explain your reasoning

bija089 [108]

Answer:

I think that gravity can be considered a force.

Explanation:

As the object falls, it moves faster and faster. Gravity is considered a universal force because it acts between any two masses anywhere in the universe. For example, there is a gravitational pull between the Sun and the Moon. Even small masses attract one another.

Hope this helped! :)
