Answer:
The specific heat of zinc is 0.361 J/g°C
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> Data given
44.0 J needed
Mass of solid zinc = 10.6 grams
Initial temperature = 24.9 °C
Final temperature = 36.4 °C
<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate the specific heat of zinc
Q = m*c*ΔT
⇒ with Q = heat (in Joule) = 44.0 J
⇒ with m = the mass of the solid zinc = 10.6 grams
⇒ with c = the specific heat of the zinc = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒ with ΔT = The change in temperature = T2-T1 = 36.4 °C - 24.9 °C = 11.5 °C
44.0 J = 10.6 grams * c * 11.5°C
c = 44.0 J / (10.6g * 11.5 °C)
c = 0.361 J/g°C
The specific heat of zinc is 0.361 J/g°C

Answer:
Nitrobenzene is too deactivated (by the nitro group) to undergo a Friedel-Crafts alkylation.
Explanation:
The benzene ring in itself does not easily undergo electrophilic substitution reaction. Some groups activate or deactivate the benzene ring towards electrophilic substitution reactions.
-NO2 ia a highly deactivating substituent therefore, Friedel-Crafts alkylation of nitrobenzene does not take place under any conditions.
This reaction scheme is therefore flawed because Nitrobenzene is too deactivated (by the nitro group) to undergo a Friedel-Crafts alkylation.
Reduction half reaction: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu⁰(s).
Oxidation half reaction: NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.
Balanced chemical reaction:
Cu²⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → Cu(s) + NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq).
Copper is reduced from oxidation number +2 (Cu²⁺) to oxidation number 0 (Cu) and nitrogen is oxidized from oxidation number +3 (in NO₂⁻) to oxidation number +5 (in NO₃⁻).
