A solution is prepared by dissolving 20.1 g of MgCl2 with the addition of 157.0 mL of water (density of water is 1.00g/cm3). The

density of the resulting solution was determined to be 1.089g/cm3. Calculate the molar concentration of this solution: Hint: Make sure you understand the definition on Molar concentration

Answer:

1.3 M.

Explanation:

  • We need to calculate the mass of the solution:

mass of the solution = mass of MgCl₂ + mass of water

mass of MgCl₂ = 20.1 g.

mass of water = d.V = (157.0 mL)(1.0 g/cm³) = 157.0 g.

∴ mass of the solution = mass of MgCl₂ + mass of water = 20.1 g + 157.0 g = 177.1 g.

  • Now, we can get the volume of the solution:

V of the solution = (mass of the solution)/(density of the solution) = (177.1 g)/(1.089 g/cm³) = 162.62 mL = 0.163 L.

Molarity is the no. of moles of solute dissolved in a 1.0 L of the solution.

M = (no. of moles of MgCl₂) / (Volume of the solution (L)).

<em>∴ M = (mass/molar mass)of MgCl₂ / (Volume of the solution (L)) =</em> (20.1 g/95.211 g/mol) / (0.163 L) = <em>1.29 M ≅ 1.3 M.</em>

The reaction of 2-chloropropane with sodium hydroxide can occur via both SN1 and SN2 mechanisms.
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) Part 1: S_N1 reaction. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction in which we have two steps. Firstly, chlorine, a good leaving group, leaves the carbon skeleton to form a relatively stable secondary carbocation. This carbocation is then attacked by the hydroxide anion, our nucleophile, to form the final product.

To summarize, this mechanism takes places in two separate steps. The mechanism is attached below.

Part 2: S_N2 reaction. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction in which we have one step. Our nucleophile, hydroxide, attacks the carbon and then chlorine leaves simultaneously without an intermediate carbocation being formed.

The mechanism is attached as well.

(b) The rate determining step is the slow step. Formation of the carbocation has the greatest activation energy, so this is our rate determining step for S_N1. For S_N2, we only have one step, so the rate determining step is the attack of the nucleophile and the loss of the leaving group.

Which series of atomic numbers represents the ordering of consecutive elements within the periodic table?
statuscvo [17]

Atomic number is same as the number of protons in the element which is further equal to the number of electrons. As the number of electrons increases in the element, the atomic number of the element also increases.

In periodic table, elements are arranged in the groups, and these groups are columns starting from 1 to 18, elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number. Elements are placed with difference of one atomic number.

First four elements present in the periodic table is:

He atomic number is one (1).

H atomic number is two (2).

Li atomic number is three (3).

Be atomic number is four (4).

Thus, the series of atomic numbers that represents the ordering of consecutive elements within the periodic table is the last option - 1, 2, 3, 4...
