Answer:
1. The product has a higher Rf value on a silica gel TLC plate because it is more polar than the starting methyl benzoate.
2. False
3. True
Explanation:
In chromatography, there is a stationary phase and a mobile phase. The ratio of the distance moved by a component and the distance moved by the solvent gives the retention factor (Rf).
Since silica gel is a polar solvent, it will retain the more polar product methyl m-nitrobenzoate compared to the methyl benzoate starting material.
In comparing the electrophillic aromatic substitution of m-nitrobenzoate and methyl benzoate, we must remember that the presence of electron withdrawing groups (such as -NO2 and -CHO) on the aromatic compound deactivates the compound towards electrophillic aromatic substitution hence, methyl m-nitrobenzoate is less reactive than methyl benzoate in Electrophilic Aromatic Substition and Methyl benzoate is less reactive than benzene in Electrophilic Aromatic Substition
This is a hard question because BEING BOLD cant be light ya know... but the light bulb.. thomas edison and joseph swan
Answer:
Lithium hydroxide is a base.
Carbon dioxide is the anhydride of the carbonic acid, H₂CO₃.
Therefore, the reaction awaited is a typical neutralization reaction with the formation of a salt and water.
2LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO₃ + H₂O
So, 2*20 = 40 moles of LiOH react with 20 moles of CO₂.
Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95 g/mol
So, 40 * 23.95 = 958 g
Answer: Block # 1 , Block # 4 and
Block # 5 will sink.
Block # 2 and 3 will float.
Explanation: The density of water is equal to 1 g/mL. Any density that is less than the density of water will float. Objects with higher density compared to water will eventually sink.
