Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the addition of HCN in water with NaOH to 3,4-dimethylcyclopentan-1-one to give the correspo

nding cyanohydrin in the fewest steps. Draw the arrows that lead to the resonance structures with full octets around each atom other than hydrogen. Draw all electrons and charges if necessary on all structures; do not show any inorganic side products or counterions. Reagents needed for each step are provided in the boxes.

Answer:

See picture and explanation below

Explanation:

In the attached picture you have the answer for this.

In the first step, we have an acid base reaction between HCN and NaOH. When this happens, its formed the following:

HCN + NaOH --------> CN⁻ + H₂O + Na⁺

As a second step, The CN⁻ attacks the carbonile group in the cyclopentane. This causes to open the double bond, and then, the Cyano enters the molecule.

The final step is another acid base reaction, where the oxygen substracts a hydrogen atom of the water in the medium, and then, the alcohol group is formed. With this step, the cyanohydrin is finally formed. See the mechanism below in the picture.

Hope this helps

Jeffrey is making a model of tungsten for his chemistry class. He has foam balls for the protons, neutrons, and electrons. He ha
mrs_skeptik [129]

Atomic number (Z) of tungsten is 74

Mass number (A) of tungsten is 184

Now:

Atomic number of an element = Number of protons = Number of electrons

Mass number = Number of Protons + Number of neutrons

In the case of tungsten

Total Number of electrons = 74

Jeffrey has already added 21 electrons

Number of electrons needed = 74 - 21 = 53

Ans (D) 53 more electrons are needed to complete the neutral atom of tungsten.

How much heat is released when 24.8 g of ch4 is burned in excess oxygen gas?
balu736 [363]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

How much heat is produced when 24.8 g of CH_4 is burned in excess oxygen gas

Given: CH _4
+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O  ΔH= −802 kJ.

Answer: 1243.1 kJ

Explanation:

Heat of combustion is the amount of heat released on complete combustion of 1 mole of substance.

Given :

Amount of heat released on combustion of  1 mole of methane = 802 kJ kJ/mol

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at NTP, weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of CH_4 weighs = 16 g  

Thus we can say:  

16 g of CH_4 on combustion releases heat = 802 kJ

Thus 24.8 g of CH_4 on combustion releases =\frac{802}{16}\times 24.8=1243.1kJ

Thus heat released when 24.8 g of methane is burned in excess oxygen gas is 1243.1 kJ

How many moles are there in 24.00 g of NaCl
Elis [28]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.41 moles

Explanation:

Data

moles of NaCl = ?

mass of NaCl = 24 g

Process

To solve this problem just calculate the molar mass of NaCl, and remember that the molar mass of any substance equals to 1 mol.

1.- Calculate the molar mass

NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g

2.- Use proportions and cross multiplication

               58.5 g of NaCl ------------------- 1 mol

               24.0 g               ------------------- x

                     x = (24 x 1) / 58.5

                     x = 0.41 moles
