maria [59]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

ye, it will be optically active

Explanation:

a compound is said to be optically active if it can optically rotate.

the removal of carboxyl group and release of cabon dioxide from carboxylic acid in acetoacetate synthesis which will result in production of ketone as given the attachment below.

A can of butane with a pressure of 2 atm at 283k has its pressure increased to a new pressure of 5 atm. What is the temperature
Ber [7]

Answer:

New temperature T2 = 707.5 K (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Old pressure P1 = 2 atm

Old temperature T1 = 283 K

New Pressure P2 = 5 atm

Find:

New temperature T2

Computation:

Using Gay-Lussac law;

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

So,

2 / 283 = 5 / T2

New temperature T2 = 707.5 K (Approx.)

What makes an element more metallic than another?
Valentin [98]
Group names in the periodic table give clues about the metallic properties of the elements.
Metallic elements are found on the left side of the periodic table. A simple conception of metals describes them as a lattice of positive ions immersed in a sea of electrons.

The rate of disappearance of HBr in the gas phase reaction2HBr(g) → H2(g) + Br2(g)is 0.301 M s-1 at 150°C. The rate of appearanc
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer: 0.151

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

2HBr(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+Br_2(g

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate=-\frac{1d[HBr]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[H_2]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}

Given: -\frac{d[HBr]}{dt}]=0.301

Putting in the values we get:

\frac{0.301}{2}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}

+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}=0.151

Thus the rate of appearance of Br_2 is 0.151

2 CuCl2 + 4 KI → 2 CuI + 4 KCl + I2
Margaret [11]

Answer: 6.75 moles

Explanation:

This is a simple stoichiometry proboe. that I would set up like this:

(13.5 moles CuCI2) (1 mol I2 / 2 moles CuCi2)

That means you all you have to do for this problem is divide by 2 and cancel out the unit moles CuCI2, which leaves you with 6.75 moles I2.

Hope this helps :)
