0.25 mols SO₂ x 64.058 g SO₂/ 1 mol SO₂ = 16.0145 g SO₂
molar mass of SO₂: 64.058 g
answer: 16 grams of SO₂ (2 sig figs)
check the question to see if its asked for a specific unit for mass (grams or kilograms, if they asked for kiligrams then convert 16 grams to kilograms by dividing it by 1000)
12.0g x 1 mol / 63.546g = 0.188839581mol
<span>So, for every 1 mole, we have 6.022 x 10^23 of whatever we're measuring. This gives us a conversion factor of (1 mole / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms) or (6.022 x 10^23 atoms / 1 mole).
</span>
0.188839581 mol x (6.022 x 10^23 atoms) / 1 mol = 1.137191955 x 10^23
<span>Remember from before that we are limited to 3 significant figures. Since our calculations are complete, we can now round down to: 1.14 x 10^23 </span>
<span>That should be your answer!
Hope it helps!

Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
