The first periodic table was organized according to atomic mass, but the current periodic table is arranged according to atomic

number. What is the difference between atomic mass and atomic number, and why is the atomic number now the basis for the periodic table?

Answer: Atomic mass is associated with the number of neutrons and protons that are present in a particular nucleus of an element. Atomic number is usually the number of protons present in an element's nucleus. It is the average weight of an element. It is the total number of nucleons in the atom's nucleus.

Assuming there were errors in atomic masses, Mendeleev placed certain elements not in order of increasing atomic mass so that they could fit into the proper groups (similar elements have similar properties) of his periodic table.

How many liters of 4.0 NaOH solution will react with 1.8 mol H2SO4
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

0.9 liters of 4.0 M NaOH solution will react with 1.8 moles of sulfuric acid.

Explanation:

2NaOH(aq)+H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq)+2H_2O(l)

According to reaction, 1 mole of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of sodium hydroxide.

Then 1.8 moles of sulfuric acid will react with:

\frac{2}{1}\times 1.8 mol=3.6 mol moles of NaOH.

Molarity of NaOH = 4.0 M

Moles of NaOH= n = 3.6 mol

Volume of NaOH = V

M=\frac{n}{V(L)}

V=\frac{n}{M}=\frac{3.6 mol}{4.0 M}=0.9 L

0.9 liters of 4.0 M NaOH solution will react with 1.8 moles of sulfuric acid.

Draw the structure of the neutral product formed in the reaction of dimethyl malonate and methyl vinyl ketone.
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The reaction between dimethyl malonate which is an active methylene group with an (∝, β-unsaturated carbonyl compound) i.e methyl vinyl ketone is known as a Micheal Addition reaction. The reaction mechanism starts with the base attack on the β-carbon to remove the acidic ∝-hydrogens and form a carbanion. The carbanion formed(enolate ion) attacks the methyl vinyl ketone(i.e. a nucleophilic attack at the β-carbon) to give a Micheal addition product, this is followed by the protonation to give the neutral product.
