Given the amount of camphor (200mg) we are using in this experiment, please determine how many mg of sodium borohydride to use i

n this reaction. We would like you to use 5.2 molar equivalents of this reagent. This means 5.2 times the mmol of camphor we are using. As an example: for 110.0 mg of camphor,142 mg of NaBH4 would be used (see if you can confirm this result). For complete credit, your work needs to be clearly drawn out!

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Camphor may be reduced as readily in the presence of sodium borohydride(NaHB4). The resulting compound which is stereoselective requires 1 mole of sodium borohydride (NaHB4) to reduce 1 mole of camphor in this reaction. The reaction is shown below.

Through the reduction process of camphor, the reducing agent can reach the carbonyl face with a one-carbon linkage. The product stereoisomer is known as borneol.

If the molecular weight of camphor = 152.24 g/mol

and it mass = 200 mg

The its no of moles = 200 mg/ 152.24 g/mol

= 1.3137 mmol

Now the amount of the required mmol for NaBH4 to be consumed in the reaction = 5.2 × 1.3137 mmol

= 6.831 mmol

since the molar mass of NaBH4 = 37.83 g/mol

Then, using the same formula:

No of moles = mass/molar mass

mass = No of moles × molar mass

mass = 6.831 mmol × 37.83 g/mol

mass of NaBH4 used = 258.42 mg

Noah and Nina are 15 m apart in a closed room. Noah says the same sentence twice. The first time, Nina does not hear the sound,
In-s [12.5K]

The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser, so the sound is louder.

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

Sound waves are longitudinal waves that travel through a medium like air or water.

In a closed room, Noah and Nina are sitting 15 m apart.

As Noah says the same sentence twice, Nina does not hear the sound the first time but she does hear the sentence the second time.

This happens as the air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser. As a result, the sound is louder.

The correct option is ''The air molecules in the compressions of the second wave are denser, so the sound is louder''.

If an atom has 35 protons in nucleus how many neutrons will it have orbiting the nueclues
Dvinal [7]

Answer

Because the two particles have an equal charge, the charges will cancel out and give the atom an overall charge of 0. So, if at atom has 35 protons in the nucleus, we could expect it to have 35 electrons orbiting that nucleus.

Do you think flowers are important to mindkind? If yes explain why in your own words please it would mean a lot!!
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Flowers play a crucial role in our lives; they have been used for generations to express the thoughts and feelings words cannot fully explain. Mother nature is the short term used to describe how nature gives life and nurture as a mother does for her children. As humans, we are part of mother nature's plan. We are also connected to plants and flowers, and some of the benefits have been passed to the next generation and will always be. We can control the air that we breathe, the aura around us, how we feel, and the things we attract in life. Other than only gifting your loved ones with flowers on special occasions, you can make the best and lasting impressions on your loved ones with a flower plant gift. This gesture shows that you understand how flowers are important in our life. To shed light on the importance of flowers in our life, here is a blog that will give five importance of flowers
