Which member of the following pairs has the larger London dispersion forces?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Virty [35]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

H₂S; CO₂; SiH₄

Explanation:

London dispersion forces are larger in molecules that are large and have more atoms or electrons.

A. H₂O or H₂S

H₂S. S is below O in the Periodic Table, so it is the larger atom. Its electrons are more polarizable.

B. CO₂ or CO

CO₂. CO₂ has more atoms. It is also linear, so the molecules can get close to each other and maximize the attractive forces.

C. CH₄ or SiH₄

CH₄. Si is below C in the Periodic Table, so it is the larger atom. Its electrons are more polarizable.

Select the single best answer. Which mechanism properly shows the movement of electrons in the reaction? 2xsafari
sweet [91]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

We must study the reaction pictured in the question closely before we begin to attempt to answer the question.

Now, the reaction is a free radical reaction. This implies that only one electron is transferred. The transfer of one electron is shown using a half arrow rather than a full arrow. The both species are radicals (odd electron species) and contribute one electron each.

Hence we must show electron movements in both species using a half arrow.

Gaseous ethane reacts with gaseous oxygen gas to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . What is the theoretical yiel
Effectus [21]

Answer:

1) Write the balanced equation:

2C2H6 + 7O2 ---> 4CO2 + 6H2O

2) Determine limiting reagent:

C2H6 ⇒ 13.8 g / 30.0694 g/mol = 0.45894 mol

O2 ⇒ 45.8 g / 31.9988 g/mol = 1.4313 mol

C2H6 ⇒ 0.45894 / 2 = 0.22947

O2 ⇒ 1.4313 / 7 = 0.20447

Oxygen is limiting.

3) Determine theoretical yield of water:

The oxygen : water molar ratio is 7 : 6

7 is to 6 as 1.4313 mol is to x

x = 1.2268286 mol of water

4) Convert moles of water to grams:

1.2268286 mol times 18.015 g/mol = 22.1 g (to three sig figs)

Solution to (b):

14.2 g / 22.1 g = 64.2%

In each reaction box, place the best reagent and conditions from the list below.
Serggg [28]
This is a two step step reaction as shown below,

Step 1:
           Epoxidation of Alkene:
                                              In first step Cyclohexene is treated with peroxybenzoic acid in the presence of Dichloromethane which results in the formation of epoxide moiety.

Step 2:
           Nucleophillic Substitution Reaction:
                                                                  In second step the epoxide formed is treated with Sodium Methoxide which acts as a nucleophile and attacks the less hindered carbon of epoxide resulting in the formation of final product as shown below.
