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

Chemistry
1 answer:
klio [65]3 years ago
4 0

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!

How many joules of energy do you have if you have 0.45 L of water in a can and you heat the 23C water to 55C site:socratic.org
Bess [88]

Answer:

Q = 60192 j

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water = 0.45 L

Initial temperature = 23°C

Final temperature = 55°C

Amount of heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  55°C - 23°C

ΔT = 32°C

one L = 1000 g

0.45 × 1000 = 450 g

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 j/g°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 450 g.  4.18 j/g°C.  32°C

Q = 60192 j

Molybdenum has a molar mass of 95.94g/mol. How many molecules of molybdenum are in 150.0 g of molybdenum
Kitty [74]
We are given the molar mass of Molybdenum as 95.94 g/mol. Also, the chemical symbol for Molybdenum is Mo. This question is asking for the amount of molecules of molybdenum in a 150.0 g sample. However, since molybdenum is a metal and it is in the form of solid molybdenum, Mo (s), it is not actual a molecule. A molecule has one or more atom bonded together. We will instead be finding the amount of atoms of Molybdenum present in the sample. To do this we use Avogadro's number, which is the amount of atoms/molecules of a substance in 1 mole of that substance.

150.0 g Mo/ 95.94 g/mol = 1.563 moles of Mo

1.563 moles Mo x 6.022 x 10²³ atoms/mole = 9.415 x 10²³ atoms Mo

Therefore, there are 9.415 x 10²³ atoms of Molybdenum in 150.0 g.

True or false 4 questions help please!
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

True or false 4 questions help please!

Most mixtures are not physical changes.

True

False   FALSE  when I add solid NaCl salt to water I no longer have a solid salt, I have a solution of sodium and chlorid ions in liquid water.  this is  physical change

Chemical Changes do not create a new substance.

True

False  FALSE 0ne of the proofs that you have a chemical change is the presence of a new substance

Fire is an example of a Chemical Change.

True  TRUE  fire is oxygen reacting wiIh mattter to form new compounds

False

Explosions are not chemical changes.

It depends on the explosion  if I blow up a balloon until it POPS!! that is physical chame.  If I light a firecracker and it explodes, that is a chemical change of oxygen reacting with hot gunpowder

A change in color and odor are both examples of chemical changi

I would rewrite the question as  

A change in color and odor  both INDICATE a chemical change

and that is

True  TRUE

False

F

True   Fire is an example of a Chemical Change.

True

False

Explosions are not chemical changes.

True

False
