Answer:

The concentrations change to maintain the original value of K.

Explanation:

The concentration changes to maintain the original value of K when the concentration of the system changes.

This is the effect concentration has on a reaction at equilibrium.

Le Chatelier's principle proposes that "if any conditions of a system in equilibrium is changed, the system will adjust itself in order to annul the effect of the change".

The equilibrium constant K is temperature dependent.
An increase in concentration of a specie favors the direction that uses it up and vice versa.
This does not change the value of the equilibrium constant.

A nuclear fission reaction has mass difference between the products and the reactants of 0.0284 amu. Calculate the

notsponge [240]

Answer:

C) 4.24 x $10^{-12}$

Explanation:

E = Δm $c^{2}$

Δm = 0.0284 x 1.66 x $10^{-27}$ kg = 4.714x $10^{-29}$ kg

putting value in above equation

E = 4.714x $10^{-29}$ kg x (3x $10^{8}$ $)^{2}$ = 4.24 x $10^{-12}$

If the density of water is 1g/ml, what is the mass of 254ml of water?

Mariulka [41]

The mass of 254 mL of water is 254 g. Since the density of water is 1g/mL, we can simply multiply the density 1g/mL by 254 mL of water and get 254 g as our answer. Since mL is in the numerator and denominator, mL cancels out and we are left with g only.

A sample of gas contains 0.1700 mol of OF2(g) and 0.1700 mol of H2O(g) and occupies a volume of 19.5 L. The following reaction t

andreev551 [17]

Answer: The volume of the sample after the reaction takes place is 29.25 L.

Explanation:

The given reaction equation is as follows.

$OF_{2}(g) + H_{2}O(g) \rightarrow O_{2}(g) + 2HF(g)$

So, moles of product formed are calculated as follows.

$\frac{3}{2} \times 0.17 mol \\= 0.255 mol$

Hence, the given data is as follows.

$n_{1}$ = 0.17 mol, $n_{2}$ = 0.255 mol

$V_{1}$ = 19.5 L, $V_{2} = ?$

As the temperature and pressure are constant. Hence, formula used to calculate the volume of sample after the reaction is as follows.

$\frac{V_{1}}{n_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{n_{2}}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$\frac{V_{1}}{n_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{n_{2}}\\\frac{19.5 L}{0.17 mol} = \frac{V_{2}}{0.255 mol}\\V_{2} = \frac{19.5 L \times 0.255 mol}{0.17 mol}\\= \frac{4.9725}{0.17} L\\= 29.25 L$

Thus, we can conclude that the volume of the sample after the reaction takes place is 29.25 L.

<h3><u>Full Question:</u></h3>

The following compound has been found effective in treating pain and inflammation (J. Med. Chem. 2007, 4222). Which sequence correctly ranks each carbonyl group in order of increasing reactivity toward nucleophilic addition?

A) 1 < 2 < 3

B) 2 < 3 < 1

C) 3 < 1 < 2

D) 1 < 3 < 2

<h3><u>Answer: </u></h3>

The rate of nucleophilic attack of carbonyl compounds is 2<3 <1.

Option B

<h3><u>Explanation. </u></h3>

Nucleophilic attack is explained as the attack of an electron rich radical to a carbonyl compound like aldehyde or a ketone. A nucleophile has a high electron density, so it searches for a electropositive atom where it can donate a portion of its electron density and become stable.

A carbonyl compound is a $sp^2$ hybridized carbon atom with a double bonded oxygen atom in it. The oxygen atom pulls a huge portion of electron density from carbon being very electropositive.

In a ketone, there are two factors that make it less likely to undergo a nucleophilic attack than aldehyde. Firstly, the steric hindrance of two carbon groups being attached with the carbonyl carbon makes it harder for the nucleophile to approach. Secondly, the electron push by the carbon groups attached makes the carbonyl carbon a bit less electropositive than the aldehyde one. So aldehydes are more reactive towards a nucleophilic addition reaction.
