Answer:

2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of (CH_{3})_{2}C=O and (CH_{3})_{3}CHO

Explanation:

In ozonolysis (hydrolysis step involve a reducing agent such as Zn, Me_{2}S etc.), a pi bond is broken to form ketone/aldehyde.

Ketone is formed from di-substituted side of double bond and aldehyde is formed from mono-substituted side of double bond.

Ozoznolysis involves two consecutive steps : (1) formation of ozonide, (2) hydrolysis of ozonide.

Hydrolysis can be done with/without using reducing agent. Carboxylic acid/carbon dioxide/ketone is produced when hydrolysis is done without using reducing agent.

Here, 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields mixture of (CH_{3})_{2}C=O and (CH_{3})_{3}CHO

Reaction steps are shown below.

"What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0"
Artyom0805 [142]

Q: What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0 °C? (Lf = 3.34 x 105 J/kg)

Answer:

-3670.33 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.

Mathematically,  change of Entropy can be expressed as,

ΔS = ΔH/T ....................................... Equation 1

Where ΔS = Change of entropy, ΔH = heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = -(Lf×m).................................... Equation 2

Note: ΔH is negative because heat is lost.

Where Lf = latent heat of ice = 3.34×10⁵ J/kg, m = 3.0 kg, m = mass of water = 3.0 kg

Substitute into equation

ΔH = -(3.34×10⁵×3.0)

ΔH = - 1002000 J.

But T = 0 °C = (0+273) K = 273 K.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = -1002000/273

ΔS = -3670.33 J/K

Note: The negative value of ΔS shows that the entropy of water decreases when it is changed to ice at 0 °C

Vinvika [58]
The correct answer is option 1. Butane and 2-butene have the same total number of carbon atoms. They both have four carbon atoms. They differ in there structure since the latter has double bonds on it. As a result of the different structure, they also have different properties.

Describe how hydrogen and oxygen form water.
bekas [8.4K]
Hydrogen and Oxygen by themselves have 1 and 6 valence electrons, respectively. 8 valence electrons is stable, so the atoms form bonds with each other to achieve 8 valence e-.

1 H atom + 1 H atom + 1 O atom = 8 valence e-

The average distance between nitrogen and oxygen atoms is 115 pm in a compound called nitric oxide. what is this distance in cen
e-lub [12.9K]
<span>pm stands for picometer and picometers are units which can be used to measure really tiny distances. One picometer is equal to 10^{-12} meters. We know that one centimeter is equal to 10^{-2} m so there are 10^2 cm per meter. We can change the distance d = 115 pm to units of centimeters. d = (115 pm) x (10^{-12}m / pm) x (10^2 cm / m) d = 115 x 10^{-10} cm = 1.15 x 10^{-8} cm The distance in centimeters is 1.15 x 10^{-8} cm</span>
