Why are pi bonds weaker than sigma bonds?

Chemistry

Pi bonds<span> are usually </span>weaker than sigma bonds<span>. Quantum mechanics says this is because the orbital paths are parallel so there is much less overlap between the p-orbitals. 

It's basically depend on the formation of these bonds.

Hope this helps!</span>

You observe 2 waves named alpha and beta. The alpha wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and the beta wave has a frequency of 2 Hz. Base
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

shorter wavelength = alpha wave

Explanation:

Given that,

The alpha wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and the beta wave has a frequency of 2 Hz.

We need to compare the wavelengths of these two waves.

For alpha wave,

\lambda_1=\dfrac{c}{f_1}\\\\\lambda_1=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{5}\\\\=6\times 10^7\ m

For beta wave,

\lambda_2=\dfrac{c}{f_2}\\\\\lambda_2=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{2}\\\\=15\times 10^7\ m

From the above calculations, we find that the wavelength of the alpha wave is shorter than the wavelength of the beta wave.

Consider the following reaction: 2CH3OH(g)  2CH4(g) + O2(g) ΔH = +252.8 kJ a) Calculate the amount of heat transferred when 24.
denpristay [2]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For a:</u> The amount of heat transferred for the given amount of methanol is 94.6736 kJ.

<u>For b:</u> The mass of methane gas produced will be 10.384 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical reaction:

2CH_3OH(g)\rightarrow 2CH_4(g)+O_2(g);\Delta H=+252.8kJ

  • <u>For a:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

Given mass of methanol = 24.0 g

Molar mass of methanol = 32.04 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of methanol}=\frac{24.0g}{32.04g/mol}=0.749mol

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

For every 2 moles of methanol, the amount of heat transferred is +252.8 kJ.

So, for every 0.749 moles of methanol, the amount of heat transferred will be = \frac{252.8}{2}\times 0.749=94.6736kJ

Hence, the amount of heat transferred for the given amount of methanol is 94.6736 kJ.

  • <u>For b:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

252.8 kJ of energy is absorbed when 2 moles of methane gas is produced.

So, 82.1 kJ of energy will be absorbed when = \frac{2}{252.8}\times 82.1=0.649mol of methane gas is produced.

Now, calculating the mass of methane gas from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of methane gas = 16 g/mol

Moles of methane gas = 0.649 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.649mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methane gas}}{16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methane}=10.384g

Hence, the mass of methane gas produced will be 10.384 g.
