Metallocenes, like ferrocene cannot be nitrated. Why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
den301095 [7]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Metallocenes are cyclic organometallic compounds with a double pentadienyl structure consisting of a metal atom in between the two structures. In ferrocene, Fe is the metal in between the two pentadienyl structures.

Nitration reaction is the reaction of nitric acid in the presence of sulphuric acid. When metallocenes, (e.g. ferrocene) are being treated with this stong oxidizing agent (nitric acid), oxidation of organometallic compound takes place. When this oxidation occurs, it oxidizes the oxidation state of the Fe metal from +2 to +3 in ferrocene, and it becomes unstable. Then, as a result, the whole metallocene structure gets destroyed.

State one source of lead compounds in the air?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:Sources of lead emissions vary from one area to another. At the national level, major sources of lead in the air are ore and metals processing and piston-engine aircraft operating on leaded aviation fuel. Other sources are waste incinerators, utilities, and lead-acid battery manufacturers. The highest air concentrations of lead are usually found near lead smelters.

How many grams of silver nitrate will be needed to produce 8.6 g of silver?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

13.5g of AgNO3 will be needed

Explanation:

Silver nitrate, AgNO3 contains 1 mole of silver, Ag, per mole of nitrate. To solve this problem we need to convert the mass of Ag to moles. Thee moles = Moles of AgNO3 we need. With the molar mass of AgNO3 we can find the needed mass:

<em>Moles Ag-Molar mass: 107.8682g/mol-</em>

8.6g * (1mol / 107.8682g) = 0.0797 moles Ag = Moles AgNO3

<em>Mass AgNO3 -Molar mass: 169.87g/mol-</em>

0.0797 moles Ag * (169.87g/mol) =

<h3>13.5g of AgNO3 will be needed</h3>

As a scuba diver descends under water, the pressure increases. At a total air pressure of 2.73 atm and a temperature of 25.0 ∘C,
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

1.33 x 10⁻³ mol/L

Explanation:

The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its partial pressure .This is know as Henry´s law and is given by the formula:

S(g) = Kh  x P

where  S = solubility of the gas

           Kh = henry´s constant for the gas

           P = partial pressure of the gas above solution

we are told to assume that the composition of the air in the tank is the same as on land, hence its partial pressure and we know nitrogen composition in air is 78 %, so the partial pressure of N₂ is:

P N₂ = 0.78 x 2.73 atm =  2.13 atm

Now we can calcualte the solubility as follows:

S N₂ = 6.26 x 10⁻⁴ mol / L·atm  x 2.13 atm = 1.33 x 10⁻³ mol/ L
