Answer:

(a) Formation of the carbocation is the rate-determining step (RDS)

(c) Reactions at chiral carbons proceed with inversion of stereochemistry

Explanation:

SN1 reactions arenucleophilic substitution reactions in which the rate determining step is unimolecular.

The formation of a carbocation is the rate determining step. This depends on the electrophilicity of the leaving group. Thus the SN1 reaction mechanisms is dependent on the electrophile and not the nucleophile.

Polar and acidic solvents which can assist in the formation of the carbocation speeds up the rate determining step.

If the formation of carbocation occurs at a chiral center, both retention and inversion of stereochemistry are likely to occur.

Therefore, the correct options are A and C.

Answer:

24.47 L

Explanation:

Using the general gas law equation:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = 0.0821 Latm/molK

T = temperature (K)

According to the provided information in this question,

P = 1.0 atm

V = ?

n = 1 mol

T = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K

Using PV = nRT

V = nRT ÷ P

V = 1 × 0.0821 × 298 ÷ 1

V = 24.465 ÷ 1

V = 24.465

V = 24.47 L

Upon combustion, a 0.8009 g sample of a compound containing only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produces 1.6004 g CO2 and 0.6551 g
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

C2H4O

Explanation:

We can get the answer through calculations as follows.

From the mass of carbon iv oxide produced, we can get the number of moles of carbon produced. We first divide the mass by the molar mass of carbon iv oxide. The molar mass of carbon iv oxide is 44g/mol

The number of moles of carbon iv oxide is 1.6004/44 = 0.0364

Since there is only one carbon atom in CO2, the number of moles of carbon is same as above

The mass of carbon in the compound is simply the number of moles multiplied by the atomic mass unit. The atomic mass unit of carbon is 12. The mass of carbon in the compound is thus 12 * 0.0364= 0.4368g

From the number of moles of water, we can get the number of moles of hydrogen. To get the number of moles of water, we need to divide the mass of water by its molar mass. Its molar mass is 18g/mol. The number of moles here is thus 0.6551/18 = 0.0364 mole

But there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in 1 mole of water and thus, the number of moles of hydrogen is 2 * 0.0364= 0.0728

The mass of hydrogen is thus 0.0728* 1 = 0.0728g

The mass of oxygen equals the mass of the compound minus that of hydrogen and that of carbon.

= 0.8009 - 0.0728 - 0.4368 = 0.2913 mole

The number of moles of oxygen is the mass of oxygen divided by its atomic mass unit.

That equals 0.2913/16 = 0.0182 mole

The empirical formula can be obtained by dividing the number of moles of each by the smallest which is that of carbon and oxygen 0.0182

H = 0.0728/0.0182 = 4

C= 0.0364/0.0182 = 2

O= 0.0182/0.0182= 1

The empirical formula is thus C2H4O

I will give brainliest!! How long is the pencil? Make sure to use the appropriate amount of significant figures.
8090 [49]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The bottom of pencil is placed at the starting point of scale. Whereas the tip of pencil depicts the end point of its length.

The bottom of pencil is at 0 mm and tip of pencil is at 18.73 mm. The appropriate amount of significant figures is 18.73 mm.

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options, pencil is 18.73 mm long.

irinina [24]

Explanation:

Part of life is the role we certainly play during our role in life.Like a quote of shakespeare,we have our roles in earth to perform or we are like a chess whom we don't want to waste a move.

Art of life signifies that our life is wonderful with mysteries and hypotenic beauty and wonders and with different moments in a journey.
