Be sure to answer all parts. Acetone is one of the most important solvents in organic chemistry. It is used to dissolve everythi

ng from fats and waxes to airplane glue and nail polish. At high temperatures, it decomposes in a first-order process to methane and ethene (CH2═C═O). At 600°C, the rate constant is 8.7 × 10−3 s−1. (a) What is the half-life of the reaction

Answer:

Half life = 79.67 sec

Explanation:

Given that:

k = 8.7\times 10^{-3}\ s^{-1}

The expression for half life is shown below as:-

t_{1/2}=\frac{\ln2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

t_{1/2}=\frac{\ln2}{8.7\times 10^{-3}\ s^{-1}}

t_{1/2}=114.94252\ln \left(2\right)\ sec=79.67\ sec

Half life = 79.67 sec

PLEASE HELP! sketch the structure of the nitrogen-containing product that is formed when ethylamine reacts with water​
Aleksandr [31]

First of all the ethylamine is base so will be react with water to take the proton from the water (H⁺) , because water is amphoteric will react with bases as acid and acids as a base, so the water in this case will react as an acid and will gives the proton to the base.

In the picture you may see the chemical equation and the structure of the products.

When double-stranded DNA is heated at neutral pH, which change does not occur?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

B) The covalent N-glycosidic bond between the base and the pentose breaks

Explanation:

When forces that bind 2 DNA strands are broken, these strands finally split. This process is called denaturalization

The main forces that remain both DNA strands together are the hydrogen bonds (physical forces), between pair of bases (Adenine with Thymine, and Guanine with Cytosine)

Denaturalization may occur by different factor: Ph alteration, salt addition, temperature (heating), etc

When heating a DNA solution, denaturalization process may be followed using UV absorption (normally, at wavelength of 260 nm): when DNA (double strand) has its regular structure, UV light absorption is low, as the nitrogen bases are stacked like a pile of coins, for which structure absorbs less light

When DNA structure is denaturalized, these nitrogen bases are exposed, and UV absorption increases

Also, DNA denaturalization may be followed by viscosity: for a double strand DNA solution, viscosity is high due to double chain stiffness but when strands are denaturalized, simple strands solution are less viscous (so viscosity decreases over time, when heating the solution)

Lastly, when solution is heated, only physical forces are broken (hydrogen bonds) and not chemical bonds (such as covalent bonds), for which extreme conditions are needed
