Answer:

Non metals join to form covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Both atoms bonded through covalent bond.

In Cl₂ both chlorine atoms are bonded through the covalent bond.

When performing a Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction, not only does one have the problems of multiple alkylation and rearrangeme

3241004551 [841]

Strong electron withdrawing groups prevents Friedel Crafts reaction because when a withdrawing group attracts the electrons decrease the availability of the electronic pair and the enough electronic density of it in order to make possible the aromatic electrophilic substitution.

Strong electron donating groups like NH2 doesn’t undergo Friedel Crafts reaction because NH2 is a Lewis base that means an electron donor. Due to Friedel Crafts reaction is an acid base reaction, the AlCl3 will be attacked by the lone pair available from NH2 producing a salt. The same occurs with phenol because the lone pair of electrons available in the OH group so Friedels Crafts doesn’t undergo with benzene attached to the strong electron donating groups NH2 or OH.

Predict the spontaneity of a reaction (and the temperature dependence of the spontaneity) for each possible combination of signs

Akimi4 [234]

Answer and Explanation:

At constant pressure and constant temperature, the Gibbs free energy of a process is given by the following equation:

ΔG= ΔH - T ΔS

The process is spontaneous when ΔG<0. For this, there are four alternatives depending on the signs of ΔH and ΔS and the temperature (T):

1) ΔH negative, ΔS positive ⇒ b)The reaction will be spontaneous at all temperatures.

ΔG= (-H) - T (+S) ⇒ ΔG<0 always

2) ΔH positive, ΔS negative ⇒ c)The reaction will be nonspontaneous at all temperatures.

ΔG= (+H) - T (-S) ⇒ ΔG>0 always

3) ΔH negative, ΔS negative ⇒ d)The reaction will be spontaneous at low temperature, but nonspontaneous at high temperature.

ΔG= (-H) - T (-S) ⇒ ΔG<0 if TΔS is lower than ΔH, because is the positive term

4)ΔH positive, ΔS positive ⇒ a)The reaction will be nonspontaneous at low temperature, but spontaneous at high temperature.

ΔG= (+H) - T (+S) ⇒ ΔG<0 if TΔS higher than ΔH because is the negative term

A sample of an unknown biochemical compound is found to have a percent composition of 45.46 percent carbon, 7.63 percent hydroge

Leona [35]

Answer:

Formular = C₅H₁₁NO₃

Explanation:

The empirical formular is the simplest formular of a compound can have.

We use the steps below to obtain the empirical formular;

Step 1: Obtain the mass of each element present in grams. Element % = mass in g = m.

Carbon = 45.46% = 45.46g

Hydrogen = 7.63% = 7.63g

Nitrogen = 10% = 10g

Oxygen = 100% - (45.46% + 7.63% + 10%) = 36.31% = 36.31g

Step 2: Determine the number of moles of each type of atom present.

Molar amount (M) = m/atomic mass

Carbon = 45.46 / 12 = 3.7883

Hydrogen = 7.63 / 1 = 7.63

Nitrogen = 10 / 14 = 0.7143

Oxygen = 36.91 / 16 = 2.3069

Step 3: Divide the number of moles of each element by the smallest number of moles. Smallest = 0.7143

Carbon = 3.7883 / 0.7143 = 5.3035

Hydrogen = 7.63 / 0.7143 = 10.67

Nitrogen = 0.7143 / 0.7143 = 1

Oxygen = 2.2693 / 0.7143 = 3.1770

Step 4: Convert numbers to whole numbers

Carbon = 5

Hydrogen = 11

Nitrogen = 1

Oxygen = 3

Formular = C₅H₁₁NO₃
