How many grams of KCN are in 10.0 ml of a 0.10 M solution?
1 answer:
Explanation:
As it is known that molarity is the number of moles present in a liter of solution.
Mathematically, Molarity =
As it is given that molarity is 0.10 M and volume is 10.0 ml. As 1 ml equals 0.001 L. Therefore, 10.0 ml will also be equal to 0.01 L.
Hence, putting these values into the above formula as follows.
Molarity =
0.10 M =
no. of moles = 0.001 mol
As molar mass of KCN is equal to 65.12 g/mol. Therefore, calculate the mass of KCN as follows.
No. of moles =
0.001 mol =
mass = 0.06152 g
Thus, we can conclude that 0.06152 grams of KCN are in 10.0 ml of a 0.10 M solution.

See explanation and picture below
Explanation:
First, in the case of methyloxirane (Also known as propilene oxide) the mechanism that is taking place there is something similar to a Sn2 mechanism. Although a Sn2 mechanism is a bimolecular substitution taking place in only step, the mechanism followed here is pretty similar after the first step.
In both cases, the H atom of the HBr goes to the oxygen in the molecule. You'll have a OH⁺ in both. However, in the case of methyloxirane the next step is a Sn2 mechanism step, the bromide ion will go to the less substitued carbon, because the methyl group is exerting a steric hindrance. Not a big one but it has a little effect there, that's why the bromide will rather go to the carbon with more hydrogens. and the final product is formed.
In the case of phenyloxirane, once the OH⁺ is formed, the next step is a Sn1 mechanism. In this case, the bond C - OH⁺ is opened on the side of the phenyl to stabilize the OH. This is because that carbon is more stable than the carbon with no phenyl. (A 3° carbon is more stable than a 2° carbon). Therefore, when this bond opens, the bromide will go there in the next step, and the final product is formed. See picture below for mechanism and products.
