In which of the following compounds does the carbonyl stretch in the IR spectrum occur at the lowest wavenumber?

Chemistry

klio [65]3 years ago

Answer:

a. Cyclohexanone

Explanation:

The principle of IR technique is based on the <u>vibration of the bonds</u> by using the energy that is in this region of the electromagnetic spectrum. For each bond, there is <em>a specific energy that generates a specific vibration</em>. In this case, you want to study the vibration that is given in the carbonyl group C=O. Which is located around 1700 cm-1.

Now, we must remember that the <u>lower the wavenumber we will have less energy</u>. So, what we should look for in these molecules, is a carbonyl group in which less energy is needed to vibrate since we look for the molecule with a smaller wavenumber.

If we look at the structure of all the molecules we will find that in the last three we have <u>heteroatoms</u> (atoms different to carbon I hydrogen) on the right side of the carbonyl group. These atoms allow the production of <u>resonance structures</u> which makes the molecule more stable. If the molecule is more stable we will need more energy to make it vibrate and therefore greater wavenumbers.

The molecule that fulfills this condition is the <u>cyclohexanone.</u>

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

9 moles of NaNO3.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaCl —> 3NaNO3 + AlCl3

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Al(NO3)3 and NaCl that reacted and the number of mole of NaNO3 produced from the balanced equation.

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Al(NO3)3 reacted with 3 moles of NaCl to produce 3 moles of NaNO3.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant.

The limiting reactant can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Al(NO3)3 reacted with 3 moles of NaCl.

Therefore, 4 moles of Al(NO3)3 will react with = (4 x 3)/1 = 12 moles of NaCl.

From the calculations made above, we can see that it will take a higher amount i.e 12 moles than what was given i.e 9 moles of NaCl to react completely with 4 moles of Al(NO3)3.

Therefore, NaCl is the limiting reactant and Al(NO3)3 is the excess reactant.

Finally, we shall determine the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced from the reaction.

In this case, the limiting reactant will be used as it will produce the maximum amount of NaNO3 since all of it is consumed by the reaction.

The limit reactant is NaCl and the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaCl reacted to produce 3 moles of NaNO3.

Therefore, 9 moles of NaCl will also react to produce 9 moles of NaNO3.

From the calculations made above, the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced is 9 moles

What is the difference between concentrated acid and a weak one?
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Difference between concentrated acid and weak acid :---

  • According to Arrhenius's theory the substances which easily get dissociated into H+ ions when dissolved in water are acids.

  • And the substance which readily gives H+ ions on dissociation (when dissolved in water) are Strong Acid. Examples are HCl , H2SO4 etc.

While,

  • Concentration of acid is just the value of pH. pH is the measurement of concentration of acid or base. The lower the pH, higher the concentration.

  • So strong acid is strong because it gives H+ ions readily in water and Concentration is the value of pH.

Dr. I. M. A. Brightguy adds 0.1727 g of an unknown gas to a 125-mL flask. If Dr. B finds the pressure to be 736 torr at 20.0°C,
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The gas that Dr. Brightguy added was O₂

Explanation:

Ideal Gases Law to solve this:

P . V = n . R . T

Firstly, let's convert 736 Torr in atm

736 Torr is atmospheric pressure = 1 atm

20°C = 273 + 20 = 293 T°K

125 mL = 0.125L

0.125 L . 1 atm = n . 0.082 L.atm / mol.K . 293K

(0.125L .1atm) / (0.082 mol.K /L.atm . 293K) = n

5.20x10⁻³ mol = n

mass / mol = molar mass

0.1727 g / 5.20x10⁻³ mol = 33.2 g/m

This molar mass corresponds nearly to O₂
