Answer:

The answer to your question is Pd₂H₄

Explanation:

Data

mass of palladium = 42.56 g

mass of hydrogen = 0.8 g

Process

1.- Convert the grams of each substance to moles

                   106 g of Pd ----------------- 1 mol

                    42.56 g of Pd -------------  x

                      x = (42.56 x 1)/106

                      x = 0.402 moles

                      1 g of H --------------------- 1 mol

                     0.8 g of H ------------------ x

                     x = (0.8 x 1)/1

                     x = 0.8 moles

2.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Palladium = 0.402/0.402 = 1

Hydrogen = 0.8/0.402 = 1.99 ≈ 2              

3.- Write the empirical formula

                                 PdH₂

4.- Calculate the mass of the empirical formula

PdH₂ = 106 + 2 = 108

5.- Divide the molar mass by the molar mass of the empirical formula

                     216.8/108 = 2

6.- Get the molecular formula

                 2(PdH₂) = Pd₂H₄

Methods of Heat Transfer HW
san4es73 [151]

The given statements are radiation, convection and conduction, all warmness are convection while conduction is cold.

<h3>Briefing :</h3>

Your hand touches the burner on the stove. <u>Radiation </u>

Magma in the earth's mantle heats up and rises, then cools and sinks which causes Earth's tectonic plates to move. <u>Convection </u>

You feel the warmth of the sun on a warm summer day. <u>Radiation</u>

The warm water near the equator moves towards the cold water near the earth's poles. This phenomenon is known as a global ocean current. Convection

You accidentally touch the hot part of the iron. <u><em>Radiation </em></u>

The soup on the bottom of a pot heats up by touching the pan. Conduction

Hot soup moves to the top of the pot and cool soup sinks to the bottom. <u><em>Convection</em></u>

Your tongue touches a very cold spoon. <u><em>Conduction </em></u>

The hot pavement heats up the air directly above it. <u>Convection</u>

The warm air over land, moves towards the cooler air over the ocean which causes a windy breeze. <u><em>Convection</em></u>

Zinc dissolves in hydrochloric acid to yield hydrogen gas: zn(s) + 2hcl(aq) → zncl2(aq) + h2(g) when a 12.7 g chunk of zinc diss
N76 [4]

First calculate the initial moles of HCl.

HCl moles i = (1.45 moles / L) * 0.5 L = 0.725 moles HCl

 

Then calculate how much HCl is consumed by stoichiometry:

HCl moles consumed = (12.7 g Zn / 65.38 g / mol) * (2 moles HCl / 1 mole Zn) = 0.388 moles

 

So HCl moles left is:

HCl moles f = 0.725 – 0.388 = 0.3365 moles

For every 1 mole HCl there is 1 mole H, therefore:

H moles final = 0.3365 moles

 

So final concentration of H ions is:

<span>Concentration H = 0.3365 moles / 0.5 L = 0.673 M</span>

Reaction of tert−butyl pentyl ether [CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OC(CH3)3] with HBr forms 1−bromopentane (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2Br) and compound H.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:The compound H is is 2-Methyl prop-1-ene and its structure can be found in attachment. The m/z value of 2-Methyl prop-1-ene is 56 which clearly matches with the mas spectrum data. The structure can also be ascertained using the provided IR data. The IR data has absorption stretching frequency in the region of 1650cm⁻¹ which is due to the C=C double bond. The stretching frequency at 3150-3000cm⁻¹ is due to the unsaturated C-H bond. The stretching frequency at 3000-2850cm⁻¹ is due to the saturated C-H bonds. Kindly refer attachment for the mechanism.

Explanation:

The reaction of tert-butyl ether with HBr leads to the formation of 1-bromopentane and tertbutyl alcohol.

The tert butyl alcohol formed undergoes E1 elimnation reaction to give 2-Methyl prop-1-ene.

The mass spectra and IR data available for the compound H completely matches with that of 2-Methyl prop-1-ene hence we can ascertain that the compound H is 2-Methyl prop-1-ene.

The m/Z value of 2-Methyl prop-1-ene  is 56 which is in compete accordance with the provided data for compound H .

The IR data also completely matches with the structure of 2-Methyl prop-1-ene as the following Infrared absorption peaks are provided which matches with that of 2-Methyl prop-1-ene :

The absorption stretching frequency in the region of 1650cm⁻¹ corresponds to the  C=C double bond which is clearly evident in 2-Methyl prop-1-ene.

The stretching frequency at 3150-3000cm⁻¹ corresponds to  unsaturated C-H bond.

The stretching frequency at 3000-2850cm⁻¹ is due to the saturated C-H bonds.

The mechanism of the reaction involves the following steps:

1. The oxygen atom in tert-butyl pentyl ether is protonated by treating it with Hydrogen bromide and Br⁻ is lost from hydrogen bromide.

2. Now since the oxygen atom is protonated it turns into a good leaving group and can leave as tertiary butyl alcohol. The eliminated Br⁻ now  attacks in a SN2 manner from the back side at the primary carbon center which leads to the formation of 1-Bromopentane and tertiary-butyl alcohol

3.The tert-butyl alcohol formed further reacts with HBr present to give elimiantion product 2-Methyl prop-1-ene  through E1 elimination mechanism. The OH is protonated  and further it gets eliminated  as H₂O leading to formation of  a tertiary carbocation. The tertiary carbocation formed gives an elimination product of 2-Methyl prop-1-ene .

Kindly refer the attachment for complete reaction mechanism.

The speed of a car is 16 meters per second. What is this speed in miles per hour? What is
Dovator [93]

<u>Conversion Factors:</u>

1.61 km = 1 mile

60 sec = 1 min

60 min = 1 hour

<u />

Use dimensional analysis to solve.

=\frac{16\ meters}{1\ second} × \frac{1\ km}{1000\ meters} × \frac{1 mile}{1.61\ km} × \frac{60\ seconds}{1\ min} × \frac{60\ min}{1\ hour}

=35.77639752

= 36 miles/hour

If done properly, you should be left with the units <em>miles/hour</em>
