Answer:

Shifting from concentrated to dilute dilute base switch the mechanism from E2 to E1.

Explanation:

An elimination reaction is known as an organic reaction that involves two substituents being removed from a compound in either one step or two steps mechanism. The one step mechanism is referred to as the E2 (bimolecular elimination) reaction while the two steps mechanism is referred to as the E1 (unimolecular elimination) reaction. In the presence of concentrated base, the mechanism of the reaction is one step mechanism while in the presence of dilute base, the mechanism of the reaction is a two steps mechanism. Therefore, shifting from concentrated to dilute base will automatically switch the mecahnism from E2 reaction to E1 reaction.

A sample of metal has a mass of 5. 2 g and absorbs 20. 0 j of energy as it is heated from 30. 0°c to 40. 0°c. What is the identi
kiruha [24]

The identity of the metal is copper.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.

Using the formula of specific heat

H = mcdT

Where, H = Heat absorbed

m = mass of the metal

c = specific heat capacity of the metal

dT = temperature change

Putting the values in the equation

20 J = 0.0052 Kg × c × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)

c = 20 J/0.0052 Kg × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)

c = 385 JKg-1°C-1

Thus, the metal is copper.
