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.

Identify the FALSE statement. You could summarize our Solar System's development by saying that Choose one:
irina [24]

Answer:

D. It formed solely from atoms generated by the Big Bang.

Explanation:

From the history of the earth and it's solar system, options A to C are all correct ways of summarizing the Solar System's development. Because they have been proven to be in sync with reality of the solar system whereas the Bing bang theory has not done so as we know it says the universe was birthed from a huge explosion called big bang.

Which of the following hypotheses cannot be tested using the scientific method
Arturiano [62]
I believe it's answer #3. Logically, at least.

You can test #1 through trial and error.
You can experiment #2 also through trial and error.
You cannot test #3 through trial and error, because that would be catastrophic.
You can test #4 through a survey and individual study and data collection.

The Ka for acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is 1.80 x 10-5 . Determine the pH of a 0.0500mol/L acetic acid solution.
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

pH = 3.02

Explanation:

Acetic Acid is a weak acid (HOAc) that ionizes only ~1.5% as follows:

HOAc ⇄ H⁺ + OAc⁻.

In pure water the hydronium ion concentration [H⁺] equals the acetate ion concentration [OAc⁻] and can be determined* using the formula [H⁺] = [OAc⁻] = SqrRt(Ka·[acid]) = SqrRt(1.8x10⁻⁵ x 0.0500)M = 9.5x10⁻⁴M.

By definition, pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(9.5x10⁻⁴) = 3.02

______________________________________________________

*This formula can be used to determine the [H⁺] & [Anion⁻] concentrations for any weak acid in pure water given its Ka-value and the molar concentration of acid in solution.
