Answer:

296.33K

Explanation:

Data;

Q = 852J

mass (m) = 38.4g

θ₂ = 32.5°C = 305.5K

θ₁ = ?

c = 2.42 J/g.K

From the equation of heat transfer;

Heat transfer (Q) = MC∇θ

Q = mc(θ₂ - θ₁)

852 = 38.4 * 2.42 * ( 305.5 - θ₁ )

852 = 28389.504 - 92.928θ₁

Collect like-terms

92.928θ₁ = 27537.504

Divide both sides by 92.928 to make θ₁ the subject of formula .

θ₁ = 296.33K

Consider this reaction mechanism: Step 1: Mo(CO)6→ Mo(CO)5 + CO Step 2: Mo(CO)5 + P(CH3)3→ Mo(CO)5P(CH3)3 Which of these is an i
Alja [10]

Answer:

Mo(CO)5 is the intermediate in this reaction mechanism.

Explanation:

The reaction mechanism describes the sequence of elementary reactions that must occur to go from reactants to products. Reaction intermediates are formed in one step and then consumed in a later step of the reaction mechanism.

In this reaction mechanism, Mo(CO)5 is the product of 1st reaction and then it is used as a reactant in 2nd reaction. So, Mo(CO)5 is the reaction intermediates.

The overall balanced equation would be,

Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3) ↔ CO + Mo(CO)5 +  P(CH3)3

Just choice D.
If you find the number of atoms of each element, you will find that only choice D has the same amounts on each side of the equation.
