The process by which the movement of internal bonds converts one type of what organic compound into another is
nevsk [136]

Answer: It's is called Reaarrangement

Explanation:

Rearrangement is a chemic reaction in which an atom or group of atoms bond migrate from one carbon atom to another. The movement involves two adjacent atoms and move over a large distance. It is important in functional group transformation.

Reaarrangement can be classified based on the atom or group of atoms it migrate.

Nucleophilic rearrangement which involves the migration of atoms with electron pairs.

Electrophilic migration involved the migration of atom or groups without electron pair.

Free radical involves the atom or group of atoms moving with a lone pair of electron.

How does salt help melt the road?​
QveST [7]

Lower the melting point

Explanation:

Salts helps to melt road by lowering the melting point. It acts as an impurity and generally, impurities low the melting point of substances.

Salts are used as an antifreeze.

  • Water freezes at 0°C and forms ice/snow which can impede human and vehicular movement.
  • When salt is added, it causes the depression of the freezing point by lowering it further.
  • The freezing point is pegged back at -6°C.
  • This way it takes more low temperature to freeze the water.
  • The salt acts as an impurity and causes the depression of melting point and widening of the melting range.

How many cu atoms are present in a piece of sterlingsilver jewelry weighing 33.24 g ? (sterling silver is a silver–copper alloy
emmasim [6.3K]

The mass of piece of sterling silver jewelry is 33.24 g. It contains 92.5% silver Ag by mass. Since, sterling silver is an alloy of Ag-Cu thus, percentage of Cu will be:

% Cu=100-92.5=7.5%

Thus, mass of copper will be:

m_{Cu}=\frac{7.5}{100}\times 33.24 g=2.493 g

Molar mass of Cu is 63.546 g/mol, thus, number of moles of Cu can be calculated as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.

Putting the values,

n=\frac{2.493 g}{63.546 g/mol}=0.03923 mol

Now, in 1 mole of Cu there are 6.303\times 10^{23}atoms thus, in 0.03923 mol, number of Cu atoms will be:

0.03923 mol\times 6.303\times 10^{23}atoms=2.363\times 10^{22} atoms

Thus, number of atoms of Cu will be2.363\times 10^{22} atoms.

What are the coefficients of the equation below when it is balanced?
strojnjashka [21]

3, 2, 1, 6

Explanation:

To balance the chemical equation the number of atoms of each element  

entering the reaction have to be equal to the number of atoms of each  

element leaving the reaction, in order to conserve the mass.

In our case we have:

3 CaCl₂ + 2 Na₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 NaCl

So the stoechiometric coefficients will be:

3, 2, 1, 6
