Compound B, C6H12O2, was found to be optically active, and it was oxidized to an optically active carboxylic acid A, by Ag (aka,

Tollens Reagent). Oxidation of B by PCC gave an optically inactive compound X that reacted with Zn amalgam/HCl to give 3-methylpentane. With Na2Cr2O7/H2SO4, compound B was oxidized to an optically inactive dicarboxylic acid C, C6H10O4. Provide the structures of A, B, and C (ignore specific configuration of any stereocenters).

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Acidipic Acid <u><em>(which is an essential dicarboxylic acid for manufacturing purposes with about 2. 5 billion kilograms produced per year. It is mainly used for the production of nylon and its related materials.)</em></u>

Going by the question, since the H_{2}  CrO_{4} is comparatively mild oxidizing agent than the CrO_{3}, it only oxidizes the carbon group

Kindly check the attached image below for the full explanation to the question above.

The intermolecular forces present in CH 3NH 2 include which of the following? I. dipole-dipole II. ion-dipole III. dispersion IV
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

I. dipole-dipole

III. dispersion

IV. hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces are weak attraction force joining nonpolar and polar molecules together.

London Dispersion Forces are weak attraction force joining non-polar and polar molecules together. e.g O₂, H₂,N₂,Cl₂ and noble gases. The attractions here can be attributed to the fact that a non -polar molecule sometimes becomes polar because the constant motion of its electrons may lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant.

Dispersion forces are the weakest of all electrical forces that act between atoms and molecules. The force is responsible for liquefaction or solidification of non-polar substances such as noble gas an halogen at low temperatures.

Dipole-Dipole Attractions are forces of attraction existing between polar molecules ( unsymmetrical molecules) i.e molecules that have permanent dipoles such as HCl, CH3NH2 . Such molecules line up such that the positive pole of one molecule attracts the negative pole of another.

Dipole - Dipole attractions are more stronger than the London dispersion forces but weaker than the attraction between full charges carried by ions in ionic crystal lattice.

Hydrogen Bonding is a dipole-dipole intermolecular attraction which occurs when hydrogen is covalently bonded to highly electronegative elements such as nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine. The highly electronegative elements have very strong affinity for electrons. Hence, they attracts the shared pair of electrons in the covalent bonds towards themselves, leaving a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on the electronegative atom ( nitrogen in the case of CH3NH2 ) . This attractive force is know as hydrogen bonding.

How many moles of \ce{Fe2O3}FeX 2 ​ OX 3 ​ will be produced from 27.0 \text{ g}27.0 g27, point, 0, start text, space, g, end tex
ira [324]

Answer : The number of moles of Fe_2O_3  produced will be, 0.241 moles.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Fe = 27.0 g

Molar mass of Fe = 56 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Fe.

\text{ Moles of }Fe=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Fe}{\text{ Molar mass of }Fe}=\frac{27.0g}{56g/mole}=0.482moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of Fe_2O_3

The balanced chemical reaction is,

4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 mole of Fe react to give 2 mole of Fe_2O_3

So, 0.482 moles of Fe react to give \frac{0.482}{4}\times 2=0.241 moles of Fe_2O_3

Thus, the number of moles of Fe_2O_3  produced will be, 0.241 moles.

How does concentration affect our daily lives in science?​
statuscvo [17]

1. <em>Increasing the concentration of one or more reactants will often increase the rate of reaction. This occurs because a higher concentration of a reactant will lead to more collisions of that reactant in a specific time period. </em>

<em>2. Physical state of the reactants and surface area.</em>

Which of the following statements is true about both nuclear fusion and nuclear fission?
creativ13 [48]

The correct answer is A.

B is incorrect because that only applies to nuclear fission.

C is incorrect because it only applies to nuclear fusion.

D is incorrect because energy can be neither created nor destroyed meaning that this statement is physically impossible,
