Answer:

The intermediate is carbocation.

Explanation:

The reaction of alkene with an acid to give alcohol is an electrophilic addition reaction.

In electrophilic reaction, the alkene is being attacked by an alkene.

in case of aqueous acid reaction with alkene , the electrophile is [H⁺].

When the proton attacks the alkene it generates carbocation.

The carbocation generated is formed based on stability of carbocation.

The mechanism is shown in the figure.

How much time would it take to distribute one avagadro's number of wheat grains if 10^10 grains are A)1.9*10^2 years B)1.9*10^10

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

It takes 1.9 $\times 10^{6}$ years to distribute all the grains.

Explanation:

In one second, $10^{10}$ grains of wheat are distributed.

We are supposed to find the time it would take to Distribute Avogadro number of grains.

1 avogadro number = 6.022 $\times 10^{23}$

Number of grains distributed in 1 day = 86400 $\times 10^{10}$

= 8.64 $\times 10^{14}$

Number of grains distributed in 1 year= 8.64 $\times 10^{14} \times 365$

= 3.1536 $\times 10^{17}$

Time taken = $\frac{Number of grains to be distributed}{grains distributed in 1 year}$

= $\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23}}{3.1536\times 10^{17}}$

= 1.9 $\times 10^{6}$

Answer:

I belive the answer is A but the image quality is hard to tell.

Explanation:

As pressure increases the higher the melting point of rock becomes making it harder to melt, thats why molten rocks brought to the surface melt because of the change in pressure.

Analyse the temperature versus time graph of water, given below.

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Phase C - Liquid State

Phase E - Gaseous State

Explanation:

Usually, in phases of water, we have the following;

When temperature is less than zero, it is said to be in its solid phase as ice.

When temperature is between 0 to 100, we can say it is in the liquid phase as water.

When temperature is above 100°C, It is said to be in the gaseous phase as vapour.

From the diagram;

Phase C is the only liquid state because it falls between temperature of 0°C and 100°

Also, only phase E is in the gaseous phase because the temperature is above 100°C.

After 17.1 thousand years, what percentage of the original carbon-14 would be left in an organism’s remains? After 17.1 thousand

hram777 [196]

Answer:

12.5%

Explanation:

Initial percentage of carbon 14 = 100%

Final percentage = ?

Time passed = 17.1 * 1000 years = 17100 years

Half life of carbon 14 = 5,730 years.

So how many Half lives are in 17100 years?

Number of Half lives = Time passed / Half life = 3.18 ≈ 3

First Half life;

100% --> 50%

Second Half life;

50% --> 25%

Third Half life ;

25% --> 12.5%
