Answer:

a. 3-brumo - 3-methylhexane

Explanation:

Alkyl Halides can undergo substitution reactions. Nucleophiles are electron rich species and has negative charge while Electrophiles are electron deficient species which carry positive charge. Alkyl halide which have polar carbon atom are electrophiles.

On combustion, 1.0 L of a gaseous compound of hydrogen, carbon, and sulfur gives 2.0 L of CO2, 3.0 L of H2O vapor, and 1.0 L of
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the organic compound is  = C_2H_6S_1

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Moles of CO_2 gas at STP occupying 2.0 L = n

n\times 22.4L=2.0L

n=\frac{2.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.08929 mol

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of H_2O gas at STP occupying 3.0 L = n'

n'\times 22.4L=3.0L

n'=\frac{3.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.1339 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of SO_2 gas at STP occupying 1.0 L = n''

n''\times 22.4L=1.0L

n''=\frac{1.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.04464 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

Moles of carbon , hydrogen and sulfur constituent of that organic compound .

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

For empirical; formula divide the least number of moles from all the moles of elements.

carbon = \frac{0.08920 mol}{0.04464 mol}=2

Hydrogen =  \frac{0.2678 mol}{0.04464 mol}=6

Sulfur = \frac{0.04464 mol}{0.04464 mol}=1

The empirical formula of the organic compound is  = C_2H_6S_1

1. The reaction below describes cellular respiration. Which compounds are the reactants and which are the
swat32

Answer:

C₆H₁₂O₆ and O₂ are reactant.

CO₂ and H₂O are products.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂  →  6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP

Explanation:

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration  

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.  

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration.

Steps involve in anaerobic respiration are:

Glycolysis

Glycolysis is the first step of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It involve the breakdown of one glucose molecule into pyruvate and 2ATP.

Fermentation

The second step of anaerobic respiration is fermentation. It involve the fermentation of pyruvate into lactic acid or alcohol depending upon the organism in which it is taking place. There is no ATP produced, however carbon dioxide is released in this step.

Iron iii chloride ammonium hydroxide balanced equation, complete ionic equation, net ionic equation
Vladimir [108]
Iron III Chloride has a chemical formula of FeCl₃, while ammonium hydroxide has a chemical formula of NH₄OH. 

The <em>balanced equation</em> would be:

FeCl₃ (aq) + 3 NH₄OH (aq) → Fe(OH)₃ (s) + 3 NH₄Cl (aq)
The precipitate is Fe(OH)₃ or iron iii hydroxide.

To find the <em>complete ionic equation</em>, dissociate the compounds in aqueous phases into their ionic forms:

Fe³⁺ + Cl⁻ + NH₄⁺ + 3 OH⁻ -->  Fe(OH)₃(s) + NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻ 

To find the <em>net ionic equation</em>, cancel out like ions that appear both in the reactant and product side:

Fe³⁺ +  3 OH⁻ -->  Fe(OH)₃
