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

nzoate on a silica gel TLC plate. The product has a higher Rf value on a silica gel TLC plate because it is less polar than the starting methyl benzoate. The product has a lower Rf value on a silica gel TLC plate because it is less polar than the starting methyl benzoate. The product has a higher Rf value on a silica gel TLC plate because it is more polar than the starting methyl benzoate. The product has a lower Rf value on a silica gel TLC plate because it is more polar than the starting methyl benzoate. 1.5 points QUESTION 2 Methyl benzoate is more reactive than benzene in Electrophilic Aromatic Substition [EAS] reactions.

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

When 18.5 g of HgO(s) is decomposed to form Hg(l) and O2(g), 7.75 kJ of heat is absorbed at standard-state conditions. What is t
taurus [48]

Answer:

The standard enthalpy of formation of HgO is -90.7 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

The reaction between Hg and oxygen is as follows.

\text{Hg(l)}+\frac{1}{2}{O_{2}\rightarrow \text{HgO(s)}

From the given,

Molar mass of HgO = 216.59 g/mol

Mass of HgO decomposed = 18.5 g

Amount of heat absorbed = 7.75 kJ

From the reaction,

The standard  enthalpy of formation = +7.75\times\frac{kJ}{18.5 g}\frac{216.59}{1mol} \,\,= +90.7 kJ/mol

During the decomposition of 1 mol of HgO , 90.7 kJ of energy absorbed.

For the formation of 1 mol of HgO , 90.7 kJ of energy is release

Therefore, the enthalpy of formation of mercury(II)Oxide is -90.7 kJ/mol
