Chemistry
1 answer:
Anni [7]3 years ago
4 0

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.

A first-order reaction has a half-life of 20.0 minutes. Starting with 1.00 × 1020 molecules of reactant at time t = 0, how many
zalisa [80]

Half-life time of a reaction is time at which reactant concentration becomes half of its initial value.

Half-life of the first order reaction is 20 min. Rate constant can be calculated as follows:

K=\frac{0.6932}{t_{1/2}}=\frac{0.6932}{20 min}=0.03466 min^{-1}

The rate expression for first order reaction is as follows:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}log\frac{A_{0}}{A_{t}}

initial number of molecules of reactant are 10^{20}, time is 100 min thus, putting the values to calculate number of reactant at time 100 min,

0.03466 min^{-1}=\frac{2.303}{100 min}log\frac{[10^{20}]}{A_{t}}

On rearranging,

\frac{10^{20}}{A_{t}}=31.988

Or,

A_{t}=3.13\times 10^{18}

Therefore, number of molecules unreacted will be 3.13\times 10^{18}

Consider two equal size rooms connected by an open door. One room is maintained at a higher temperature then the other one. Whic
patriot [66]

Answer:

  • The room mantained at a lower temperature will contain more air molecules.

Explanation:

1) Since the two rooms are <em>connected by an open door</em>, you assume pressure equilibrium: the pressure on the two rooms is the same.

2) Since you consider <em>two equal size rooms</em>, both volumes are equal.

3) Assuming ideal gas behavior, pressure (P), temperature (T), volume (V) and number of moles (n) are related by the equation PV = nRT

4) Naming T₁ the lower temperature, T₂ the higher temperature, n₁ the number of moles of air in the room at lower temperature, and n₂ the number of moles of air in the room at higher temperature, you get:

  • n₁ T₁  = n₂ T₂, or n₁ / n₂ = T₂ / T₁

5) That means that the amount of molecules (number of moles) is inversely related to the temperature: the higher the temperature the lower the number of moles, and the lower the temperature the greater the number of moles.

Hence, the answer is that <em>the room that contains more air molecules is the room mantained at a lower temperature.</em>

A fusion reaction takes place between carbon and another element. Neutrons are released, and a different element is formed. The
sdas [7]

Answer:

Dependent on the element that reacted with carbon

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of small atomic nuclei into larger ones usually accompanied with the release of a large amount of energy.

From the problem stated, carbon fuses with another atom. The combined atom would have more nuclear particles in terms of protons and neutrons than the combining atoms. This will eventually make it weigh more than carbon and the atom it combines with. The resulting weight will depend on the combining atoms eventually.
