The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

What is the purpose of reacting 2.0mL of HNO3 with 2.0 mL of H2SO4 in a separate test tube, prior to adding it to the solution containing the substrate? more than one answer is possible

A) The release of a water molecule that acts as an electrophile in the reaction with methyl benzoate.

B) The formation of nitronium ion, which acts an electrophile in the reaction with methylbenzoate.

C)The formation of bisulfate (hydrogen sulfate), which acts as an electrophile in the reaction with methylbenzoate.

D)The release of a water molecule that acts as a nucleophile in the reaction with methyl benzoate.

Answer:

B) The formation of nitronium ion, which acts an electrophile in the reaction with methylbenzoate.

Explanation:

The benzene ring is known to be stable hence it can only undergo a substitution reaction with the aromatic ring still intact. When the substitution reaction involves an electrophile we refer to the process as electrophillic aromatic substitution. Electrophilic aromatic substitution is a useful synthetic route for many organic compounds.

In the electrophilic substitution of methyl benzoate using the 1:1 volume ratio mixture of H2SO4/HNO3, the nitronium ion (NO2+) is the electrophile generated in the test tube. It is this NO2+ that now reacts with the methyl benzoate to yield the reaction product.

A minimumenergy of 7.21x10-19 J is required to produce the photoelectric effect in chromium metal.
forsale [732]

Answer:

<em>2.085 x 10^-20 J</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

minimum energy required to produce photoelectric effect in chromium is given as hf =  7.21 x 10^-19 J

The work function of chromium Ф = 4.37 eV = 7.00151 x 10^-19 J

The minimum energy required to eject an electron from from a chromium metal E = ?

From E = hf - Ф

substituting values, we have

E = (7.21 x 10^-19) - (7.00151 x 10^-19)

E = <em>2.085 x 10^-20 J</em>

A gas occupies 5.31 liters at a pressure of 0.55 atm. Determine the volume at standard pressure.
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Option A; V =  2.92 L

Explanation:

If we assume a lot of things, like:

The gas is an ideal gas.

The temperature is constant.

The gas does not interchange mass with the environment.

Then we have the relation:

P*V = n*R*T = constant.

Where:

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = constant of the ideal gas

T = temperature.

We know that when P = 0.55 atm, the volume is 5.31 L

Then:

(0.55 atm)*(5.31 L) = constant

Now, when the gas is at standard pressure ( P = 1 atm)

We still have the relation:

P*V = constant = (0.55 atm)*(5.31 L)

(1 atm)*V = (0.55 atm)*(5.31 L)

Now we only need to solve this for V.

V = (0.55 atm/ 1 atm)*(5.31 L) = 2.92 L

V = 2.92 L

Then the correct option is A.

What cultural differences does Herodotus notice between Greek ways of living and those of Persia and Egypt
Sindrei [870]
<span>The Persian Wars mark an important turning point not only in Greek history but, indeed, in the course of all European civilization. First and foremost, because of its victory Greece was saved from the threat of external rule and could develop on its own. Handed this independence, the Greeks chose to follow a path which forever changed the course of modern life. Without their success in this conflict, they would, no doubt, never have had the liberty, means or conviction to invent, discover or create all they did: not just history but philosophy, science, drama, art, architecture, indeed most of the cornerstones of modern civilization. Another consequence of this victory, less immediate but equally important, was that it prevented the Persians from dominating the lands to the west of Greece—as noted above, it's likely the fertile fields of Italy and Sicily, not the rough dust of Greece, were the real target of Xerxes' imperial designs—and there a tiny settlement called Rome had just begun to sprout, at that moment hardly a dot on the map, but it would later develop into a crucial player in the history of the West. Rome won freedom, too, in the Persian Wars, without ever fielding a single fighter. It's impossible to imagine how vastly different our world would be if Persia had conquered or exterminated the Romans before they'd ever had a chance to grow. Thus, the Greeks laid the groundwork for later Western culture, and Herodotus the foundation for understanding it. If so many of his facts look suspect or even prove incorrect, if he sometimes seems to set speculation and scandal over sober criticism and science, before condemning him we should recall that he founded this entire enterprise called history, a discipline which still bears the name he gave it. His critics should also bear in mind it's only because Herodotus set us on this path that we can even scorn his methods in the first place. To this most uncommon "common man," we owe an enormous collective debt.</span>
