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

Ammonia gas combines with excess oxygen gas to produce nitric oxide and water. How many grams of ammonia gas would have to react
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

11.6g of NH₃(g) have to react

Explanation:

For the reaction:

4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ΔH = -905kJ

<em>4 moles of ammonia produce 905kJ</em>

Thus, if you want to produce 154kJ of energy you need:

154kJ × (4 mol NH₃ / 905kJ) = <em>0.681moles of NH₃. </em>In mass -Molar mass ammonia is 17.031g/mol-

0.681mol NH₃ × (17.031g / mol) = <em>11.6g of NH₃(g) have to react</em>

Draw a structural formula for the alkene you would use to prepare the alcohol shown by hydroboration/oxidation.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete because the image of the alcohol is missing. However, I will try give you a general picture of the reaction known as hydroboration of alkenes.

This reaction occurs in two steps. In the first step, -BH2 and H add to the same face of the double bond (syn addition).

In the second step, alkaline hydrogen peroxide is added and the alcohol is formed.

Note that the BH2 and H adds to the two atoms of the double bond. The final product of the reaction appears as if water was added to the original alkene following an anti-Markovnikov mechanism.

Steric hindrance is known to play a major role in this reaction as good yield of the anti-Markovnikov like product is obtained with alkenes having one of the carbon atoms of the double bond significantly hindered.

in the reaction mgcl2 + 2koh mg(oh)2 + 2kcl, if 3 moles mgcl2 are added to 4 moles koh what determines how much mg(oh)2 is made
otez555 [7]
Every mole of MgCl2 reacts with 2 moles of KOH, therefore the 4 moles of KOH will only react with 2 moles of MgCl2, making it the limiting reagent and therefore KOH determines how much Mg(OH)2 is produced.
