Answer:

Homologous series is defined as a systematic order of structurally similar organic compound containing same functional group in their family and two adjacent members differ in their molecular formula by -CH2 unit.

Characteristics:

1.Various members of homologous series contain same functional group.

2.Various members of homologous series can be represented by common formula.

3. All members of a homologous series have almost similar chemical properties.

4. All members have common method of preparation.

5.Two successive members of homologous series have different chain length or difference in their molecular formula by -CH2 unit.

6.The members of homologous series show different physical properties.

The conversation of cyclopropane to propene in the gas phase is a first order reaction with a rate constant of 6.7x10-⁴s-¹. a) i

Rus_ich [418]

Answer: a) The concentration after 8.8min is 0.17 M

b) Time taken for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M is 687 seconds.

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process

a) concentration after 8.8 min:

$8.8\times 60s=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\log\frac{0.25}{a-x}$

$\log\frac{0.25}{a-x}=0.15$

$\frac{0.25}{a-x}=1.41$

$(a-x)=0.17M$

b) for concentration to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M

$t=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\log\frac{0.25}{0.15}\\\\t=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\times 0.20$

$t=687s$
