Explain why the C―Ha bond is much more acidic than the C―Hb bond in pentan-2-one. Select the single best answer. 253 Ha is less

acidic than Hb because loss of Hb forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base. Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base. Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Hb forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base. Ha is less acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base.

Answer:

Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base.

Explanation:

The carbon atom that is next to the carbonyl group in pentan-2-one is known as the alpha carbon atom, this carbon atom bears the Ha, the alpha hydrogen atoms.

Ha is more acidic than Hb because, loss of Ha leads to the formation of a resonance stabilized enolate ion. This resonance stabilization of the ion formed makes loss of Ha an easier process than loss of Hb, hence the answer above.

Calculate the theoretical yield of ammonia produced by the reaction of 100g of H2 gas and 200g of N2 gas
ipn [44]
To get the theoretical yield of ammonia NH3:
first, we should have the balanced equation of the reaction:
3H2(g) + N2(g) → 2NH3(g)
Second, we start to convert mass to moles
moles of N2 = N2 mass / N2 molar mass
                     = 200 / 28 = 7.14 moles
third, we start to compare the molar ratio from the balanced equation between N2 & NH3 we will find that N2: NH3 = 1:2 so when we use every mole of N2 we will get 2 times of that mole of NH3 so,
moles of NH3 = 7.14 * 2 = 14.28 moles 
finally, we convert the moles of NH3 to mass again to get the mass of ammonia:
mass of NH3 = no.moles * molar mass of ammonia
                      = 14.28 * 17 = 242.76 g

Explain how the shorelines can affect the weather, in one to two sentences
defon

Answer:

Global warming causes sea-level rise as oceans expand, and makes storm patterns more energetic. Consequently it will affect most of the world's coastlines through inundation and increased erosion.
