Answer:

no effect

Explanation:

In an SN2 reaction, the mechanism is bi-molecular and first order in both the alkyl halide and the nucleophile.

Hence the rate of reaction is;

Rate = k [1-iodo-2-methylbutane] [cyanide ion]

Given that it is a bimolecular reaction, if we double the concentration of 1-iodo-2-methylbutane and the concentration of the cyanide ion is halved, the rate of reaction remains the same.

Archy [21]
The concept used here is the Le Chatelier's principle. When a disturbance is introduced to the system, it favors the direction of reaction that minimizes the disturbance to regain equilibrium.

In endothermic reactions, the forward reaction is favored when the temperature is low. Otherwise, the reverse reaction is favored. When you add the amounts of substances on the reactant side, more products would formed favoring the forward reaction. If you increase concentration on the product side, you form more reactants so it would favor the reverse reaction. Lastly, since 10 moles of gases are needed in the reactant side, it would be favored during high pressure reaction.

Why are fixed resistors’ values indicated by color bands rather than printing the numeric value on their exterior?
gladu [14]
Because there are so many different values of numbers, it would be impractical to use 1Ω, 2Ω, 3Ω... etc... Using colored bands helps make reading it a little easier to the trained eye. There are hundreds of thousands, if not tens of millions of different resistors would need to exist to cover every value. So you just use something called "preferred values" with their resistance values posted on them instead.

Determine the number of molecules in a 100. gram sample of CCl4
enyata [817]
100. g CCl4* (1 mol CCl4/ 153.8 g CCl4)* (6.02*10^23 CCl4 molecules/ 1 mol CCl4)= 3.91*10^23 CCl4 molecules.
(Note that the units cancel out so you get the answer)

Hope this helps~

tester [92]

The two main types of weathering are material and chemical.

Mechanical weathering is the disintegration of rock into smaller and smaller fragments.

Chemical weathering transforms the original material into a substance with a different composition and different physical characteristics.
