There is an error in the rate-determining step of the following proposed mechanism.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The steps with correct mechanism are given below:

1) CH₄(g) + Cl(g) → CH₃(g) + HCl(g) : This is a slow step.

The rate is given as: R1 = k₁[CH₄][Cl]

2) CH₃(g) + Cl₂(g) → CH₃Cl(g) + Cl(g): This is a fast step.

The rate is given as: Rate = k₂[CH₃][Cl₂]

∴ CH₄(g) + Cl₂(g) → CH₃Cl(g) + HCl(g)

Here, the slowest step will be the rate-determining step.

write equations to show the chemical processes which occur when the first ionization and the second ionization energies of lithi

diamong [38]

Answer:

First ionization of lithium:

$\text{Li}\;(g)\to \text{Li}^{+} \; (g) + \text{e}^{-}$ .

Second ionization of lithium:

$\text{Li}^{+}\;(g) \to\text{Li}^{2+} \;(g) + \text{e}^{-}$ .

Explanation:

The ionization energy of an element is the energy required to remove the outermost electron from an atom or ion of the element in gaseous state. (Refer to your textbook for a more precise definition.) Some features of the equation:

Start with a gaseous atom (for the first ionization energy only) or a gaseous ion. Write the gaseous state symbol $(g)$ next to any atom or ion in the equation.
The product shall contain one gaseous ion and one electron. The charge on the ion shall be the same as the order of the ionization energy. For the second ionization energy, the ion shall carry a charge of +2.
Charge shall balance on the two sides of the equation.

First Ionization Energy of Li:

The products shall contain a gaseous ion with charge +1 $\text{Li}^{+}\;(g)$ as well as an electron $\text{e}^{-}$ .
Charge shall balance on the two sides. There's no net charge on the product side. Neither shall there be a charge on the reactant side. The only reactant shall be a lithium atom which is both gaseous and neutral: $\text{Li}\;(g)$ .

Hence the equation: $\text{Li}\;(g) \to \text{Li}^{+}\;(g) + \text{e}^{-}$ .

Second Ionization Energy of Li:

The product shall contain a gaseous ion with charge +2: $\text{Li}^{2+}\;(g)$ as well as an electron $\text{e}^{-}$ .
Charge shall balance on the two sides. What's the net charge on the product side? That shall also be the charge on the reactant side. What will be the reactant?

The equation for this process is $\text{Li}^{+} \; (g) \to \text{Li}^{2+}\;(g) + \text{e}^{-}$ .

At a pressure of 782.3 mm Hg and 34.4 °C, a certain gas has a volume of 362.4 mL. What will

german

Answer: v2=331.289mL

Explanation:

Formula for ideal gas law is p1v1/T1=p2v2/T2

P1=782.3mmHg

P2=769mmHg at STP

V1=362.4mL

V2=?

T1=273+34.4=307.4k

T2=273k at STP

Then apply the formula and make v2 the subject of formula

V2= 782.3×362.4×273/760×307.4

V2=77397006.96/233624

V2=331.289mL

A scientist is conducting a Sanger's sequencing experiment to determine the number of polypeptides present in an oligomeric prot

seropon [69]

Answer:

Depends on molecule.

Explanation:

The number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer depends on the molecule. Some molecules have more polypeptide chains whereas some of them have less polypeptide chains. For example, Hemoglobin is a oligomer that consists of four Polypeptide Chains, two of these Polypeptide Chains are α-globin molecules, each comprise of 141 amino acids, and the other two are (β, γ, δ, or ε) globins, each consist of 146 amino acids.
