The question is incomplete. The image showing the compound and the options in the questions is attached.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

If we closely examine the structure of the compound given in the question, we will notice that the reaction must involve the substitution of the hydroxyl group by chlorine in the parent molecule.

This occurs when the -OH group combines with H^+ to form -OH2^+ which is a good leaving group.

Compound B is formed because, when -OH2^+ leaves, a carbocation is created. This carbocation is stabilized by the alkyl groups attached to the carbon atom bearing the leaving group by +I inductive effect. This carbon atom bearing the leaving group is a tertiary carbon atom thus it forms a more stable carbocation. Hence the product formed.

Which of the following statements about the combustion of glucose with oxygen to form water and carbon dioxide (C6H12O6 + 6 O2 →
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct statement is:

E - The entropy of the products is greater than the entropy of the reactants.

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ → 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

As glucose is a large molecule and then it is transformed into many molecules of water and carbon dioxide, the entropy of the system increases. If the number of molecules increases, the disorder increases.

Initial state: 7 molecules (1 glucose + 6 oxygen)

Final state: 12 molecules (6 carbon dioxide + 6 water)

How many molecules of fructose would you have if you have 0.7 moles of<br> fructose?<br> *
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

4.214 × 10^23 molecules.

Explanation:

Number of molecules in a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles in that substance by Avagadro's number, which is 6.02 × 10^23.

That is, no. of molecule = n × Avagadro constant

In this case, there are 0.7 moles of fructose. Hence;

number of molecules = 0.7 × 6.02 × 10^23

no. of molecule = 4.214 × 10^23 molecules.
