A 62.6-gram piece of heated limestone is placed into 75.0 grams of water at 23.1°C. The limestone and the water come to a final
alekssr [168]

Answer:

208.7°C was the initial temperature of the limestone.

Explanation:

Heat lost by limestone will be equal to heat gained by the water

-Q_1=Q_2

Mass of limestone = m_1=62.6 g

Specific heat capacity of limestone = c_1=0.921 J/g^oC

Initial temperature of the limestone = T_1=?

Final temperature = T_2=T =  51.9°C

Q_1=m_1c_1\times (T-T_1)

Mass of water= m_2=75.0 g

Specific heat capacity of water= c_2=4.186 J/g^oC

Initial temperature of the water = T_3=23.1^oC

Final temperature of water = T_2=T =  51.9°C

Q_2=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)

-Q_1=Q_2

-(m_1c_1\times (T-T_1))=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)

On substituting all values:

-(62.6 g\times 0.921 J/g^oC\times (51.9^oC-T_1))=75.0 g\times 4.186 J/g^oC\times (51.9^oC-23.1^oC)

T_1=208.7^oC

208.7°C was the initial temperature of the limestone.

Identify the Lewis acid and Lewis base in each reaction:Na⁺ + 6H₂O ⇆ Na (H₂O)⁺₆
klemol [59]

In the reaction, Na⁺ + 6H₂O ⇆ Na (H₂O)⁺₆, Na⁺ is a Lewis acid and H₂O is a Lewis base.

<h3>What is a Lewis acid-base reaction?</h3>
  • According to the Lewis theory of acid-base reactions, acids accept pairs of electrons and bases donate pairs of electrons.
  • Any substance like H+ ion, which is capable of accepting a pair of nonbonding electrons or an electron-pair acceptor is known as a Lewis acid.
  • Any substance, like the OH- ion, that is capable of donating a pair of nonbonding electrons or an electron-pair donor is a Lewis base.
  • Here Na⁺ that is electron deficient accepts electrons from the electron donor, H₂O
  • From the Lewis theory, with no change in the oxidation numbers of any atoms, acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons.

hydrogen decomposes quickly when exposed to light. the reaction for decomposing hydrogen peroxide is:
Svet_ta [14]

The decomposition reaction for hydrogen peroxide is given below:

                                     2H_{2} O_{2} → 2H_{2} O + O_{2}

This is a decomposition reaction.

Reactions in which a reactant breaks into two or more products are known as Decomposition reactions.

                                          AB → A + B

here, AB represents the reactant that begins the reaction, and A and B represent the products of the reaction

The decomposition reaction of decomposing hydrogen peroxide is exothermic. When the hydrogen peroxide undergoes a decomposition reaction, heat is also released along with water and oxygen.

Hence the  reaction for decomposing hydrogen peroxide is :

         2H_{2} O_{2} → 2H_{2} O + O_{2}

Draw structures from the following names, and determine which compounds are optically active:(c) 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane
dolphi86 [110]

The given compound 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane is an optically active compound .

Because this compound does not have plane of symmetry (POS) and center  of symmetry (COS) i.e. does not have di-symmetry . And also forms non superimposable mirror image . the compound is optically active .

It has  chiral center.

Here , the chiral carbon is attached to the 4 distinct groups such as :  methyl , ethyl , bromine , bromomethane .

<h3>What is di-symmetry?</h3>

Di-symmetry is that which have no center of symmetry and plane of symmetry and alternate axis of symmetry .

<h3>Chiral center :</h3>

Have Sp3 hybridized center (4sigma bond ) .

4 distinct group  is attached to the chiral atom. form non -superimposable mirror image .

<h3>What is optical isomerism ?</h3>

Same molecular formula and same structural formula . also have same physical and chemical properties .

They differ in their behavior towards plane polarized light (ppl) .
