Answer:
(1) Bromination, (2) E2 elimination and (3) epoxidation
Explanation:
- In the first step, -OH group in cyclopentanol is replaced by more facile leaving group Br by treating cyclopentanol with

- In the second step, E2 elimination in presence of strong base e.g. NaOEt/EtOH produce cyclopentene
- In the third step, treatment of cyclopentene with mCPBA produces 1,2-epoxycyclopentane
- Full reaction scheme has been shown below
Answer:
The second run will be faster - true, the increased surface area of catalyst will increase the rate of reaction
The second run will have the same rate as the first - possible, in case there is a factor other than catalyst limiting the reaction
The second run has twice the surface area - yes, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm
Explanation:
A catalyst is a material which speeds up a reaction without being consumed in the process. A heterogeneous catalyst is one which is of a different phase than the reactants. The effectiveness of a catalyst is dependent on the available surface area. The first step for this question is to determine the total available surface area of catalyst in both processes.
Step 1: Determine radius of large sphere




Step 2: Determine surface area of large sphere



Step 3: Determine radius of small sphere




Step 4: Determine surface area of small sphere



Step 5: Determine total surface area of 8 small spheres



- Surface area of 1 large sphere
- Surface area of 8 small spheres
Options:
- The second run will be faster - true, the increased surface area of catalyst will increase the rate of reaction
- The second run will be slower - false, the increased surface area of catalyst will increase the rate of reaction
- The second run will have the same rate as the first - possible, in case there is a factor other than catalyst limiting the reaction
- The second run has twice the surface area - yes, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm
- The second run has eight times the surface area - no, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm
- The second run has 10 times the surface area - no, 44 sqcm to 22 sqcm
Answer:
5.7
Explanation:
(C₂H₅)₃NHCl dissociates according to the following equation.
(C₂H₅)₃NHCl ⇒ (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ + Cl⁻
The molar ratio of (C₂H₅)₃NHCl to (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ is 1:1. Then, the concentration of (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ is Ca = 0.166 M.
(C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ is the conjugate acid of (C₂H₅)₃N. Given the Kb of (C₂H₅)₃N, we can calculate Ka for (C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ using the following expression.
Ka × Kb = Kw
Ka = Kw / Kb
Ka = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴ / 5.2 × 10⁻⁴
Ka = 1.9 × 10⁻¹¹
(C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ dissociates according to the following equation.
(C₂H₅)₃NH⁺ ⇄ (C₂H₅)₃N + H⁺
We can calculate [H⁺] using the following expression.
[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka) = √(0.166 × 1.9 × 10⁻¹¹) = 1.8 × 10⁻⁶
The pH is:
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 1.8 × 10⁻⁶ = 5.7
