Answer: CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH > CH₃CH₂COOH > ClCH₂CH₂COOH  > ClCH₂COOH

Answer:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH > CH₃CH₂COOH > ClCH₂CH₂COOH  > ClCH₂COOH

Explanation:

Electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) increase acidity by inductive removal of electrons from the carboxyl group.

Electron-donating groups (EDGs) decrease acidity by inductive donation of electrons to the carboxyl group.

  • The closer the substituent is to the carboxyl group, the greater is its effect.
  • The more substituents, the greater the effect.  
  • The effect tails off rapidly and is almost zero after about three C-C bonds.

CH₃CH₂-CH₂COOH —  EDG —                         weakest —  pKₐ = 4.82

      CH₃-CH₂COOH — reference —                                     pKₐ = 4.75

  ClCH₂-CH₂COOH — EWG on β-carbon— stronger —     pKₐ = 4.00

           ClCH₂COOH — EWG on α-carbon — strongest —  pKₐ = 2.87

R spectroscopy can be used to identify which _____________________ are present in a compound.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

IR spectroscopy can be used to identify chemical structures are present in compounds.

Explanation:

Infrared spectroscopy is a technique in organic chemistry that can be use use to identify chemical structures present in compounds because it is base on the ability of different functional groups to adsorb infrared light.

This work by shinning the infrared lights into the organic compounds to be identified, some of the frequencies of the infrared lights are adsorbed by the compounds and its identify groups of atoms and molecules in the compound.

How many sucrose molecules will be in 250 grams
sasho [114]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

We will need to know Avogadro's number and the molar mass of sucrose for this problem to do dimensional analysis.

  • Avogadro's number: 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
  • Molar mass of sucrose: 342.2965 g/mol

250g × \frac{1 mol}{342.297g} × \frac{6.022 * 10^{23} molecules}{1 mol} = 4.398 molecules

There are <em>4.398 sucrose molecules </em>in 250 grams of sucrose.

Why do different elements make different color flames when you burn them?
Dovator [93]
When you heat an atom, some of its electrons are "excited* to higher energy levels. When an electron drops from one level to a lower energy level, it emits a quantum of energy. ... The different mix of energy differences for each atom produces different colours. Each metal gives a characteristic flame emission spectrum.
