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

A solution contains 15.27 grams of NaCl in 0.670 kg water at 25 °C. What is the vapor pressure of the solution?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The vapor pressure of the solution is 23.636 torr

Explanation:

P_{solution} = X_{solvent}*P_{solvent}

Where;

P_{solution is the vapor pressure of the solution

X_{solvent is the mole fraction of the solvent

P_{solvent is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

Thus,

15.27 g of NaCl = [(15.27)/(58.5)]moles = 0.261 moles of NaCl

0.67 kg of water =  [(0.67*1000)/(18)]moles = 37.222 moles of H₂O

Mole fraction of solvent (water) = (number of moles of water)/(total number of moles present in solution)

Mole fraction of solvent (water) = (37.222)/(37.222+0.261)

Mole fraction of solvent (water) = 0.993

<u>Note:</u> the vapor pressure of water at 25°C is 0.0313 atm

Therefore, the vapor pressure of the solution = 0.993 * 0.0313 atm

the vapor pressure of the solution = 0.0311 atm = 23.636 torr

How many electrons will a neon (Ne) atom have when it has no charge?
Darya [45]

Answer:

hope it helps you

Explanation:

Once one shell is full, the next electron that is added has to move to the next shell. So... for the element of NEON, you already know that the atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 10 electrons in a neon atom.

How many moles are there in 7.5 L Of H2
True [87]
So multiply number of moles x number of atoms/mole = 1.8066 x 10^24 atoms of H2. One mole of any gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L. So first determine the number of moles of gas you have.
for example do 7
7.5 \div 22.4
