The molecule with same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms is said to be an isomer.

When 2,2-dimethylbutane reacts with chlorine in the presence of light gives three isomers that is CH_{3}C(CH_{3})_{2}CHClCH_{3} (3-chloro-2,2-dimethylbutane), ClCH_{2}C(CH_{3})_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3} (1-chloro-2,2-dimethylbutane) and ClCH_{2}CH_{2}C(CH_{3})_{2}CH_{3} (1-chloro-3,3-dimethylbutane).

In above case, the molecular formula of all isomers are same i.e.C_{6}H_{13}Cl but chlorine is arranged in different positions of carbon. Thus, results isomers.

The reaction is shown in the image.

The answer is the last option. Electronegativity is the measure of the attraction that an atom has for electrons involved in chemical bonds.  It relates to covalent bonds where electrons are shared. The Pauling scale is the most used.

You wish to construct a buffer of pH=7.0. Which of the following weak acids (w/ corresponding conjugate base) would you select?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8

Explanation:

In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below

we Know that

pKa= -log(Ka)

therefore

A) pKa of  HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)

=1.9208

B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644

C)  pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45

D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)=  9.3979

If we consider the  Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution

The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.

So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.

Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.

Why do the particles of objects have both kinetic and potential energy?  
OLEGan [10]
The particles of objects have both kinetic and potential energy because these forces are drive by the force of motion or stillness of an object. Potential energy is the a type of energy which an object possess however without motion. Kinetic energy in the other hand, is the energy in motion or if the object moves along from one space to another with respect to time. They both have these two energies by the presence of atoms in these entities.
