Anastasy [175]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

FC of C = -1

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Lewis Dot Structures
  • Resonance Structures
  • Formal Charge: FC = # of valence e⁻ - # of lone e⁻ - # of bonds

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Carbon (C)

  • 4 valence e⁻
  • 2 lone e⁻
  • 3 bonds

Oxygen (O)

  • 6 valence e⁻
  • 2 lone e⁻
  • 3 bonds

<u>Step 2: FC of C</u>

  1. Substitute:                    FC = 4e⁻ - 2e⁻ - 3
  2. Subtract:                       FC = -1

I choose question 1, so molarity is the concentration of a soulution expressed as the number of moles of solute by the litress of soulution. to get molarity you divide the moles of soulute by the litress of solution. soo 1 calculate the number of moles of solute present. 2 Calculate the number of litress solution present. 3. divide the number of moles of solute by the number of litress of solution
soo 1 mol of NaOH has a mass of 40.00 g, so moles of NaOH= 26.7. 1 mole divided 40.00 = 0.375. litress of solution = 650 g. im not sure why its a g i usally do it Ls so i guess its the way your teacher wants you to do it so do you know how to do that. so molarity = moles of solute and litress solution. sorry this probably didnt help i just wanted to add something that might help. im still working on this stuff myself hope this helps.

Which is the correct statement regarding the relative Rf values of the starting methyl benzoate vs the product, methyl m-nitrobe
Marianna [84]

Answer:

1. The product has a higher Rf value on a silica gel TLC plate because it is more polar than the starting methyl benzoate.

2. False

3. True

Explanation:

In chromatography, there is a stationary phase and a mobile phase. The ratio of the distance moved by a component and the distance moved by the solvent gives the retention factor (Rf).

Since silica gel is a polar solvent, it will retain the more polar product methyl m-nitrobenzoate compared to the methyl benzoate starting material.

In comparing the electrophillic aromatic substitution of m-nitrobenzoate  and methyl benzoate, we must remember that the presence of electron withdrawing groups (such as -NO2 and -CHO) on the aromatic compound deactivates the compound towards electrophillic aromatic substitution hence, methyl m-nitrobenzoate is less reactive than methyl benzoate in Electrophilic Aromatic Substition and Methyl benzoate is less reactive than benzene in Electrophilic Aromatic Substition

A 10% bleach solution for disinfecting countertops can be prepared by: a. weighing the bleach and the water b. weight to volume
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is - c. adding 10 mL bleach to 90 mL water.

Explanation:

To prepare a effective disinfecting solution to clean the countertops is a bleasce solution of 10% solution of bleach. The ten percent of the bleach solution means there are one volve of bleach and 9 volume of clean water in this solution.

So, preparing the 1/10 or ten percent solution is where adding 10 ml of bleach which is diluted to 90 ml clean water. This diluted solution can be use as disinfecting solution.
