Answer: B. 4

Explanation:

There are 4 carbon atoms present. Looking at the methyl group CH3, there is presence of carbon C which occurs three times because we have 3-methyl groups (CH3) plus another carbon C attached to the CH compound making it 4-carbon atoms present.

If you mix different amounts of two ideal gases that are originally at different temperatures, what must be true of the final st

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

a,c are correct

Explanation:

a) On mixing two gases the final temperature of both the gases becomes the same. The heat will flow from high temp. gas to lower temp gas till the temp of both gases become equal (Thermal equilibrium). This is correct.

b) The rms speed of the molecule is inversely proportional to its molar mass so the final rsm will not be the same. This is incorrect.

c) The average kinetic energy of the system will remain the same. Hence this is also correct.

Draw a mechanism for the reaction of methylamine with 2-methylpropanoic acid. Draw any necessary curved arrows. Show the product

Nitella [24]

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

On this case we have a base (methylamine) and an acid (2-methyl propanoic acid). When we have an acid and a base an acid-base reaction will take place, on this specific case we will produce an ammonium carboxylate salt.

Now the question is: ¿These compounds can react by a nucleophile acyl substitution reaction? in other words ¿These compounds can produce an amide? 

Due to the nature of the compounds (base and acid), the nucleophile (methylamine) doesn't have the ability to attack the carbon of the carbonyl group due to his basicity. The methylamine will react with the acid-producing a positive charge on the nitrogen and with this charge, the methylamine loses all his nucleophilicity.
