Answer:

The major product forms in this reaction is 2-chloro-2-methylbutane

Explanation:

HCl reacts with 2-methyl-2-butene by forming a carbocationic intermediate followed by addition of chloride ion to the carbocation.

The carbocationic intermediate is formed in intermediate step should be most stable i.e. it should have highest number hyperconjugative hydrogen atoms.

The major product forms in this reaction is 2-chloro-2-methylbutane.

Reaction mechanism and structural formula of carbocation is shown below.

A crow flies 100 meters east in 5 minutes. What is the crow’s velocity?​
torisob [31]

<em>Answer:</em>  20 m/min east

<em>Explanation:</em>  The speed is distance divided by time

distance between start-point and end-point = 100 meters

<em>time to cover the distan</em>ce  =  5 minutes

100 m ÷ 5 min = 20 m/min east

y<u>ou have to add east since velocity is the measure of speed and direction and your answer needs to include the direction</u>

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O &lt;---&gt; C6H12O6 + 6O2, WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?
Alex73 [517]

Increase in Oxygen shift the equilibrium towards reactant side.

<u>Explanation:</u>

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ⇄ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

This is the reaction occurs in the photosynthesis of plants by means of sunlight. In this case, if the concentration of Oxygen increases or adding more oxygen to the product side will shift the equilibrium towards the reactant side according to the Le Chatlier's principle, which adjusts the equilibrium by itself for any changes that is increase or decrease in pressure, temperature or concentration of reactants or products.

A sample of xenon gas occupies a volume of 6.80 L at 52.0°C and 1.05 atm. If it is desired to increase the volume of the gas sam
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

207.03°C

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

V1 (initial volume) = 6.80 L

T1 (initial temperature) = 52.0°C = 52 + 273 = 325K

P1 (initial pressure) = 1.05 atm

V2 (final volume) = 7.87 L

P2 (final pressure) = 1.34 atm

T2(final temperature) =?

Using the general gas equation P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, the final temperature of the gas sample can be obtained as follow:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1.05 x 6.8/325 = 1.34 x 7.87/T2

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

1.05 x 6.8 x T2 = 325 x 1.34 x 7.87

Divide both side by 1.05 x 6.8

T2 = (325 x 1.34 x 7.87) /(1.05 x 6.8)

T2 = 480.03K

Now, let us convert 480.03K to a number in celsius scale. This is illustrated below:

°C = K - 273

°C = 480.03 - 273

°C = 207.03°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the gas will be 207.03°C

A sample of pure tin metal is dissolved in nitric acid to produce 15.00 mL of solution containing Sn2+. When this tin solution i
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1.00 M

Explanation:

Sn^2+ reacts with KMNO4 as follows;

5Sn^2+(aq) + 2MnO4^-(aq) + 16H^+(aq) ----> 5Sn^4+(aq) + 2Mn^+(aq) + 8H2O(l)

The number of moles of MnO4^- reacted = 42.1/1000 L × 0.145 mol/L

= 0.0061 moles

If 5 moles of Sn^2+ reacts with 2 moles of MnO4^-

x moles of Sn^2+ reacts with 0.0061 moles of MnO4^-

x= 5 × 0.0061/2

x= 0.015 moles

Since the volume of the Sn^2+ solution is 15.00mL or 0.015 L

number of moles = concentration × volume

Concentration = number of moles/volume

Concentration= 0.015 moles/0.015 L

Concentration = 1 M

Why do scientists think there is an undiscovered carbon sink somewhere?
dedylja [7]
The major carbon sources (reservoirs that release more carbon than absorbed) are: deforestation and fossil fuels

The major carbon sinks (reservoirs that absorb more carbon than released) are:
soil, oceans and plants.

When scientists calculate the amount of carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere vs the released the amount of carbon, a large amount is unaccounted for and the total does not add up. This is why scientists believe there is an undiscovered carbon sink somewhere.
