A certain substance, X, has a triple-point temperature of 20°C at a pressure of 2.0 atm.

Chemistry
1 answer:
nikitadnepr [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The statement which could possibly not be true is C -" Liquid X can exist as a stable phase at 25°C, 1atm."

Explanation:

Triple point is the point where a substance co-exist as solid liquid and gas. At any point other than the triple point, the substance exist as a single phase substance.

As shown in the diagram, Liquid cannot exist as a stable phase at 1atm( below the the triple point pressure of 2atm) as the liquid can only exist beyond the pressure of triple point.

The cyclohexane ring is essentially free of ring strain because Check all that apply.
NikAS [45]

Answer:The following statements are correct: 1,2 and 6

Explanation:

1.The cyclohexane ring adopts a chair conformation in order to minimize its torsional strain. In chair conformation 4 carbon atoms are in one plane 1 carbon atom is above that plane and the other 1 carbon atom is below that plane .This leads to  chair conformation in which the bond angles are very close to the ideal tetrahedral angle of 109.5 degrees. The C-C-C bond angle in chair conformation is 110 degrees which is almost equal to the ideal tetrahedral angle.

2. In cyclohexane molecule as the molecule adopts a chair conformation in order  to eliminate the torsional strain which would occur if the cyclohexane ring were to be planar. Torsional strain is basically the inter electronic repulsion between the atoms that do not share a bond. So this strain happens on account of eclipsing atoms. In case of eclipse structure there would be a lot of torsional strain. In case of chair conformation all the C-H bonds happen to be completely staggered in nature to eliminate the torsional strain.

3. The ring strain in case of cycloalkanes are  dependent upon the number of CH₂ groups present as that would determine the size of the ring and subsequently its structure ,whether the ring would be 5 , 6 or 7 membered  .Cyclohexane is a 6 -membered as there are 6CH₂ groups in it and the existence of chair conformation is only for Cyclohexane or for molecules having 6-membered ring  . Any change  in number of CH₂groups would lead to a different conformational structure.

4.All the bond angles in cyclohexane ring is  approximately 110 degrees which is almost equal to the ideal terahedral bond angle. So the bond angles in cyclohexane are optimal.

5.The C-H bonds in cyclohexane are  always staggered and never eclipsed in order to reduce there torsional strain.

6.All the bonds in cyclohexane ring are staggered to eliminate the torsional strain. It is quite evident that the cyclohexane ring is completely stable free of the ring strain.So there are no eclipsing bonds present in cyclohexane.

So the statements which are correct 1,2 and 6

A body found with rigor throughout the body
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Can you move a body in rigor mortis?

Rigor mortis -- the lay version of it is stiffening of the joints. It really had nothing to do with the joints. It's the lack of chemical in the body, ATP, which is Adenosine Triphosphate. It goes away and you can now move the extremities easily after rigor mortis is gone away.

Does a metal conduct electricity in the solid state?
ad-work [718]
Metal atoms have outer electrons which are not tied to any one atom. These electrons can move freely within the structure of a metal when an electric current is applied. There are no such free electrons in covalent or ionic solids, so electrons can't flow through them - they are non-conductors.

In a shorter term - no
