Answer:

10^{-3.4

Explanation:

Let us first take a look at the image below;

In the acid - base  reaction; we can see the transfer of electrons that takes place;

We can also see that the reaction goes in the direction which converts the stronger acid and the stronger base to the weaker acid and the weaker base.

The stronger acid is shown with the one with more negative P_{Ka} Value.

∴ The equilibrium constant for the acid-base reaction is expressed as:

K_{eq}= \frac{K_a of reactant acid}{K_a of product acid}

      = \frac{10^{-pK} of reactant acid}{10^{-pk} of product acid}

From  P_{Ka} Value (shown in the image below), it is clear and vivid that hydrobromic acid is a stronger acid than the ethyloxonium ion, therefore the equilibrium lies to the right.

From the chemical equation (shown in the attached image); the equilibrium constant for the acid-base reaction can be expressed as:

K_{eq}=\frac{10^{-pK} of hydrobromic acid}{10^{-pk} of Ethyloxonium acid}

K_{eq}=\frac{10^{-5.8} of hydrobromic acid}{10^{-2.4} of Ethyloxonium acid}

       = 10^{-3.4}

What does it mean for the energy levels in an atom to be quantized? Describe how this affects where electrons can be found
marta [7]
When we describe the energy of a particle as quantized, we mean that only certain values of energy are allowed. ... In this case, whenever we measure the particle's energy, we will find one of those values. If the particle is measured to have 4 Joules of energy, we also know how much energy the particle can gain or lose. Quantized energy means that the electrons can possess only certain discrete energy values; values between those quantized values are not permitted

Answer:

Q.1

Given-

Volume of solution-1 L

Molarity of solution -6M

to find gms of AgNO3-?

Molarity = number of moles of solute/volume of solution in litre

number of moles of solute = 6×1= 6moles

one moles of AgNO3 weighs 169.87 g

so mass of 6 moles of AgNO3 = 169.87×6=1019.22

so you need 1019.22 g of AgNO3 to make 1.0 L of a 6.0 M solution

Draw the mechanism for the addition of methylmagnesium bromide to propanoyl chloride (CH3CH2COCl) to give 2-methyl-2-butanol.
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Reaction mechanism has been given below

Explanation:

  • Propanoyl chloride contains an electrophilic carbonyl center to give  nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction by removing Cl group with a strong nucleophile like methylmagnesium bromide.
  • Two equivalent of methyl magnesium bromide react with cabonyl center followed by protonation of negatively charged oxygen atom gives 2-methyl-2-butanol.
  • In the first step, nucleophilic acyl substituion occurs. In the second step, nucleophilic addition occurs. In the third step, protonation occurs.
  • Reaction mechanism has been shown below.
