Answer:but-1-ene

Explanation:This is an E2 elimination reaction .

Kindly refer the attachment for complete reaction and products.

Sodium tert-butoxide is a bulky base and hence cannot approach the substrate 2-chlorobutane from the more substituted end and hence major product formed here would not be following zaitsev rule of elimination reaction.

Sodium tert-butoxide would approach from the less hindered side that is through the primary centre and hence would lead to the formation of 1-butene .The major product formed in this reaction would be 1-butene .

As the mechanism of the reaction is E-2 so it will be a concerted mechanism and as sodium tert-butoxide will start abstracting the primary hydrogen through the less hindered side simultaneously chlorine will start leaving. As the steric repulsion in this case is less hence the transition state is relatively stabilised and leads to the formation of a kinetic product 1-butene.

Kinetic product are formed when reactions are dependent upon rate and not on thermodynamical stability.

2-butene is more thermodynamically6 stable as compared to 1-butene  

The major product formed does not follow the zaitsev rule of forming a more substituted alkene as sodium tert-butoxide cannot approach to abstract the secondary proton due to steric hindrance.

A student submits the following work on the mass number, but he has made a few mistakes. Select the sentences that are incorrect
rewona [7]

Answer

 

Calculating the mass number for an atom requires that we know the atomic number and the number of protons in the atom’s nucleus. The mass number then gives us the average weight of atoms of a given element. However, as long as the number of protons equals the number of neutrons, the values balance out and we always obtain a whole number for the mass number.

The p-value of a statistical test depends on all of the following, except:
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is e.

Explanation:

p-value is the probability value for a given statistical model, the probability that, when the null hypothesis is true.

For two two samples the formula of test statistics is

t=\frac{(\overline{x}_1-\overline{x}_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2}}}

where,

\overline{x} is sample mean

\mu is population mean.

s is standard deviation.

n is sample size.

Variance is the square of standard deviation.

It means variance, mean, numbers of samples is used in calculation of p-value.

Degree of freedom define the shape of the t-distribution that your t-test uses to calculate the p-value.

d.f.=n_1+n_2-2

p-value of a statistical test depends on all of the following, except median.

Therefore the correct option is e.

For the reaction a2 + b2 → 2ab, ea(fwd) = 105 kj/mol and ea(rev) = 77 kj/mol. assuming the reaction occurs in one step, calculat
Lady bird [3.3K]
Answer is: 28 kJ.
Chemical reaction: A₂ + B₂ ⇄ 2AB.
Ea(forward) = 105 kJ/mol.
Ea(reverse) = 77 kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = ?
<span>The enthalpy change of reaction is the change in the energy of the reactants to the products.
</span>ΔH(reaction) = Ea(forward) - Ea(reverse).
ΔH(reaction) = 105 kJ/mol - 77 kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = 28 kJ/mol; this is endothermic reaction (ΔH <span>> 0).</span>
