Answer:

D) Gases usually weigh less than solids

Explanation:

Gases don't have weight and solids do which automatically makes gases lighter because they don't have a mass like a solid.

In the absence of sodium methoxide, the same alkyl bromide gives a different product. Draw an arrowpushing mechanism to account
hoa [83]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, cause you are not providing the structure. However, I found the question and it's attached in picture 1.

Now, according to this reaction and the product given, we can see that we have sustitution reaction. In the absence of sodium methoxide, the reaction it's no longer in basic medium, so the sustitution reaction that it's promoted here it's not an Sn2 reaction as part a), but instead a Sn1 reaction, and in this we can have the presence of carbocation. What happen here then?, well, the bromine leaves the molecule leaving a secondary carbocation there, but the neighbour carbon (The one in the cycle) has a more stable carbocation, so one atom of hydrogen from that carbon migrates to the carbon with the carbocation to stabilize that carbon, and the result is a tertiary carbocation. When this happens, the methanol can easily go there and form the product.

For question 6a, as it was stated before, the mechanism in that reaction is a Sn2, however, we can have conditions for an E2 reaction and form an alkene. This can be done, cause the extoxide can substract the atoms of hydrogens from either the carbon of the cycle or the terminal methyl of the molecule and will form two different products of elimination. The product formed in greater quantities will be the one where the negative charge is more stable, in this case, in the primary carbon of the methyl it's more stable there, so product 1 will be formed more (See picture 2)

For question 6b, same principle of 6a, when the hydrogen migrates to the 2nd carbocation to form a tertiary carbocation the methanol will promove an E1 reaction with the vecinal carbons and form two eliminations products. See picture 2 for mechanism of reaction.

itrogen forms a number of different compounds with oxygen, depending upon the experimental conditions. This type of observation
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

the Law of multiple proportions

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions states that, if two elements A and B combine to form more than one chemical compound, then the various masses of one of the elements A, which combines with a fixed mass of the element B are in simple multiple ratio.

This is demonstrated in the formation of nitrogen compounds such as NO and N2O when nitrogen combines with oxygen. This ratio is always constant.

The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is localized to the cytosol.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer: The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is localized to the cytosol because fatty acid synthesis uses the NADPH generated by the PPP.

Explanation:

The pentose phosphate pathway is mainly catabolic and provides an alternative glucose oxidizing pathway for the generation of NADPH that is required for reductive biosynthetic reactions such as those of cholesterol biosynthesis, bile acid synthesis, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and fatty acid synthesis.

Fatty acid biosynthesis occurs in the cytosol and requires the reducing equivalent NADPH in large amounts. <em>The main source of generating NADPH in animal cells, the pentose phosphate pathway is therefore, localized in the cytosol in order to furnish a strongly reducing environment for fatty acid biosynthesis to proceed.</em>
