Answer:

\large \boxed{9.780 \times 10^{4}\text{ u}}

Explanation:

The molecular mass of a monomer unit is:

C₂H₃Cl = 2×12.01 + 3×1.008 + 35.45 = 24.02 + 3.024 + 35.45 = 62.494 u

For 1565 units,

\text{Molecular mass} = \text{1565 units} \times \dfrac{\text{62.494 u}}{\text{1 unit }} = \mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}\\\\\text{The molecular mass of the chain is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{9.780 \times 10^{4}}\textbf{ u}}$}

Which of these describes an exothermic reaction?
Paul [167]

A nswer: -

C. Energy is released by the reaction

Explanation:-

An exothermic reaction is one in which during the progress of the reaction heat is evolved.

So energy is released by the reaction.

It cannot be created as energy is neither created nor destroyed as per the Law of conservation of energy. Energy is not transferred either.

The energy released during the progress of the reaction originates from the chemical bonds of the reactants as they break during their conversion into products.

Nicotine is a toxic substance present in tobacco leaves. There are two lone pairs in the structure of nicotine. In general, loca
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

B.Lone pair in pyrrolidine ring is localized and, therefore, is expected to be more reactive.

Explanation:

There are two nitrogen atoms bearing lone pairs of electrons in the structure of nicotine as shown in the image attached.

One nitrogen atom is found in the pyrrolidine ring. The lone pair on this nitrogen atom is localized hence it is more reactive than the lone pair of electrons found on the nitrogen atom in the pyridine ring which is delocalized a shown in the image attached to this answer.

Which formula correctly represents antinomy trichloride?<br> SnS2<br> SnCl3<br> SbCl2<br> SbCl3
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

SbcI3

Explanation:

The symbol of antimony is 'Sb'.

The symbol of chlorine is 'Cl'

First write down the symbol of the first element.

Use the prefix to determine the atoms of first element. If there is no prefix on element then there is only 1 atom.

Now write down the symbol of the second element.

Use the prefix to determine the atoms of second element.

Use prefix as 'mono' for '1', 'di' for '2', 'tri' for '3' and so on.

About 95-98 percent of alcohol is oxidized to what two substances
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

D. Water and Carbondioxide

Explanation:

Combustion of organic compounds in the presence of excess Oxygen will liberate carbondioxide (CO2) and water vapour (H2O). This is an exothermic reaction because heat is liberated to the surroundings.

CnH2n+1OH(aq) + (3/2*n)O2(g) --> nCO2(g) + (n + 1)H2O(g)

Addition of Oxygen can also be termed as a redox reaction. In this case, alcohols are oxidised while the Oxygen is reduced.

Example, (propanol)

C3H7OH(aq) + 9/2O2(g) --> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
