Draw a mechanism for the reaction of methylamine with 2-methylpropanoic acid. Draw any necessary curved arrows. Show the product

Nitella [24]

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

On this case we have a base (methylamine) and an acid (2-methyl propanoic acid). When we have an acid and a base an acid-base reaction will take place, on this specific case we will produce an ammonium carboxylate salt.

Now the question is: ¿These compounds can react by a nucleophile acyl substitution reaction? in other words ¿These compounds can produce an amide? 

Due to the nature of the compounds (base and acid), the nucleophile (methylamine) doesn't have the ability to attack the carbon of the carbonyl group due to his basicity. The methylamine will react with the acid-producing a positive charge on the nitrogen and with this charge, the methylamine loses all his nucleophilicity.

I hope it helps!

You need to make an aqueous solution of 0.207 M calcium acetate for an experiment in lab, using a 300 mL volumetric flask. How m

jeka94

Answer:

We have to add 9.82 grams of calcium acetate

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molarity of the calcium acetate solution = 0.207 M

Volume = 300 mL = 0.300 L

Molar mass calcium acetate = 158.17 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles calcium acetate

Moles calcium acetate = molarity * volume

Moles calcium acetate = 0.207 M * 0.300 L

Moles calcium acetate = 0.0621 moles

Step 3: Calculate mass calcium acetate

Mass calcium acetate = moles * molar mass

Mass calcium acetate = 0.0621 moles * 158.17 g/mol

Mass calcium acetate = 9.82 grams

We have to add 9.82 grams of calcium acetate

The equation below represents a double replacement/displacement reaction;

Naddik [55]

AB+XY->AY+XB
We know that the answer would be KCl because of the switching that takes place during a double displacement reaction. Just like Zn and MnO4 switched and combined, the remaining elements, K and Cl, will combine.
We know that the answer is simply KCl because both K and Cl have an ion of only +/-1, meaning when they cross, no suffixes are made, since their ions are only 1.
For example, if you combined Mg with Cl, you would get MgCl2, because Mg has an ion of +2.
I hope this helps!

what is the molar mass of a gaseous flouride of sulfur containing 70.4% F and having a density of approximately 4.5g/L at 20 deg

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The molar mass is 180.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

% of F = 70.4 %

Density = 4.5 g/L

Temperature = 20 °C

Pressure = 1 atm

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles

PV = nRT

⇒ with P = the pressure = 1.00 atm

⇒ with V = the volume = Assume this is 1L

⇒ with n = the number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ T = the temperature : 20°C = 293 Kelvin

1 atm*1L= n(0.08206 L-atm/mol-K)*(293 K)

n = 0.04159 moles

Step 3: Calculate molar mass

Molar mass = Mass / moles

4.5 grams / 0.04159 moles = 108.2 g/mol

Step 4: Calculate moles of F

Moles = Mass / molar mass

Moles F = 70.4 g / 19 g/mol

Moles F = 3.70 moles

Moles S = 29.6g / 32.07 g/mol

Moles S = 0.923 moles S

Step 5: Divide by the smallest amount of moles

F = 3.70 / 0.923 = 4

S = 0.923 / 0.923 = 1

The empirical formula is SF4

The molar mass of SF4 = 32.07 + 4*19 = 108.07 g/mol

This means the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula SF4

The molar mass is 180.2 g/mol

Summarize the Natural Processes of weathering ,erosion, and deposition

Lena [83]

Answer:

I won’t do it in paragraph form cuz it will look very choppy but here you go:

Weathering is when the weather itself changes something, like when a metal bike gets rusty after sitting outside for a long time, or when a plant grows out of concrete.

Erosion is when something gets eroded away at. Like when something has water or wind is flowing against it so much that it changes shape. This is how canyons are made.

Deposition is when a gas turns into a solid, removing energy and skipping the liquid step (frost forming on car window)
