Many hydrocarbons exist as structural isomers, which are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structures

. For example, both butane and isobutane have the same molecular formula: C4H10- Calculate the mole percent of isobutane in an equilibrium mixture at 25° C, given that the standard Gibbs energy of formation of butane is -15.9 kJ/mol and that of isobutane is -18.0 kJ/mol. Does your result support the notion that straight-chain hydrocarbons (that is, hydrocarbons in which the C atoms are joined in a line) are less stable than branched-chain hydrocarbons?

Answer:

Explanation:

Butane ⇒ Isobutane

ΔG = RT ln K

ΔG = - 18 + 15.9 = - 2.1 kJ / mol

- 2.1 x 10³ = 8.3 x 298 x lnK

lnK = .85

K = 2.33

[ isobutane ] / [ butane ]  = 2.33

isobutane / total mixture = 2.33 / 3.33 = .7

% of isobutane = 70 % .

70% is isobutane and 30 %  butane . Since equilibrium is tilted towards isobutane , it is more stable . Butane is straight chain and isobutane is branched chain compound .

The Doppler. Effect indicates that the universe is expanding because
GalinKa [24]

Answer : The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Astronomers have observed that light from the distant object in the universe is shifted towards the frequency of red color which indicates that those object are receding or moving away from the planet earth.This phenomena was termed as Red shift .Same thing goes for galaxies which are very far away from the planet earth.

Where as if galaxies were moving towards the the planet earth their light would have shifted toward the frequency of blue color termed as blue shift.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.
