Why can’t cold air hold much water vapor?

1 answer:

4 0

Warm air can “hold” more water vapor than cool air because as the air warms its molecules move farther apart, making room for more molecules. This leads to the idea that as air cools its molecules move closer together, “squeezing” out water vapor.

What happens in this reaction and why? hept-3-yne + Br2 -->

maw [93]

Here we have to explain and predict the product of the reaction between hept-3-yne and bromine (Br₂)

The reaction between hept-3-yne and bromine produces trans-3,4-dibromo-3-heptene.

The reaction between the unsaturated hydrocarbon with halogen remove the unsaturation in the molecule and produces di halo compound. The reaction proceed through the formation of bromonium ion.

In this reaction as the unsaturation present in the middle of the alkyl chain i.e. hept-3-yne. The reaction will stop after the formation of di-halo compound with one double bond as shown in the figure.

The product will be exclusively trans product as the bromine is a bulky group and the formation of bromonium ion (intermediate) will be one side of the unsaturated compound.

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Atomic numbers:

Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. It is one of the most diagonistic and representative number used in identifying an atom. The periodic table of element arranges elements based on this number.

No two elements have the same atomic number.

Protons are positively charged particles in an atom.

In a neutral atom, the atomic number is the same as the number electrons since electrical neutrality is attained when the number of protons and electrons are the same.
The atomic number determines the position of an atom on the periodic table and it is unique for every atom.

Periodic patterns

These are trends on that can be predicted on the periodic table because they shew regularities down a group or sometimes across the period.

Some of these trends are atomic radius, electronegativity, metallicity, nuclear charge e.t.c

Properties of elements can be predicted using these patterns even before they are discovered.

Physical property shared by Helium, Argon and Neon is that they are all gases. All group 8 elements are called noble or inert gases.

Chemical property of these elements: they are chemically unreactive.

These gases are very stable having complete electronic shell configuration. Every atom on the periodic table tries to attain the state of the noble gases.

Answer: The mass of nickel (II) oxide and aluminium that must be used is 18.8 g and 4.54 g respectively.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)
