B.near the chlorine atom

H→Cl

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A covalent bond is formed when sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms combining. The atom which attracts the shared pair of electron towards itself is more electronegative and the atom which does not attracts the shared pair of electron towards itself is less electronegative.

In HCl molecule, more electronegative atom is chlorine atom having an electronegativity of 3.16 and hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1

So, majority of shared electrons will be found near to the chlorine atom in hydrochloric molecule.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

determine the specific heat of a mayterial if a 35g sample of the material absorbs 48J as it is heated from 298K to 313K
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Data:

m = 35g
Q = 48 j
T1 = 298K
T2 = 313K
Cs = ?

Fórmula: Q = m*Cs*(T2 - T1) => Cs = Q / [m (T2 - T1)]

Cs = 48 j / [35g (313K - 298K] = 0.0914 j / g*K = 91.4 j / kg*K

Complete the mechanism for the base-catalyzed opening of the epoxide below by adding any missing atoms, bonds, charges, nonbondi
worty [1.4K]

Complete Question:

check the first image for complete part of the question

Answer and Explanation:

Epoxide is a three membered ring made up of two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Epoxides are cyclic ethers. Due to its ring size, it is highly strained and very reactive. Epoxide ring opening takes place with respect to addition of acid and base.

Ring opening of epoxide with acid:  

In the presence of base, the nucleophile attacks the epoxide ring at more substituted site and inverse stereochemistry takes place.(check file 2 attached)

Ring opening of epoxide with base:  

The backside attack of nucleophile takes place in less substituted site and then it undergoes protonation to form a product.
