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

1. If I have 45 L of He in a balloon at 25 degrees celsius and increase the temperature of the
Greeley [361]

Use Charles' Law: V1/T1 = V2/T2. We assume the pressure and mass of the helium is constant. The units for temperature must be in Kelvin to use this equation (x °C = x + 273.15 K).

We want to solve for the new volume after the temperature is increased from 25 °C (298.15 K) to 55 °C (328.15 K). Since the volume and temperature of a gas at a constant pressure are directly proportional to each other, we should expect the new volume of the balloon to be greater than the initial 45 L.

Rearranging Charles' Law to solve for V2, we get V2 = V1T2/T1.  

(45 L)(328.15 K)/(298.15 K) = 49.5 ≈ 50 L (if we're considering sig figs).

Question 4 need this answered asap (chemistry)
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Conductivity meter

Explanation:

All of the other choices measure pH and can tell you when the pH changes, which is how you know the neutralization reaction has occurred. A conductivity meter does not measure pH.

Given that the molar mass of NaNO3 is 85.00 g/mol, what mass of NaNO3 is needed to make 4.50 L of a 1.50 M NaNO3 solution?
marissa [1.9K]
Mass = molarity x molar mass( NaNO₃) x volume

mass = 1.50 x 85.00 x 4.50

mass = 573.75 g of NaNO₃

hope this helps!
