Answer:
the heat exchange between the system and the surrounding medium

Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that: "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can convert from one form to another"
It is represented mathematically as:
<span>Δ e=q-w
where:</span>
<span>Δ e is the total change in the system's internal energy
q is </span><span>the heat exchange between the system and the surrounding medium
w is the work done either on the system or by the system

Hope this helps :)

What is the significance of enzymes in maintaining homeostasis in living organisms ?
GalinKa [24]
 Enzymes are needed for metabolic pathways in the body, respiration, digestion and other important life processes. When enzymes function properly, homeostasis is maintained. However, if an enzyme is lacking or has an incorrect shape due to genetic mutation, this can lead to disease within an organism.

Freon−12 (CF2Cl2), widely used as a refrigerant and aerosol propellant, is a dangerous air pollutant. In the troposphere, it tra
nevsk [136]

Answer:

141g of CCl₄

Explanation:

First, we have to write the balanced equation.

CCl₄(g) + 2 HF(g) ⇄ CF₂Cl₂(g) + 2 HCl(g)

We can calculate how many moles of CF₂Cl₂ using the ideal gas equation.

V = 14.9 dm³ = 14.9 L

T = 21°C + 273.15 = 294.15 K

P = 1.48 atm

R = 0.08206 atm.L/mol.K

P.V=n.R.T\\n=\frac{P.V}{R.T} =\frac{1.48atm.14.9L}{0.08206\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}.294.15K }=0.914mol

We can use proportions to find the mass of CCl₄ required to obtain 0.914 moles of CF₂Cl₂. According to the balanced equation, 1 mol of CF₂Cl₂ is produced when 1 mol of CCl₄ reacts. And the molar mass of CCl₄ is 154 g/mol.

0.914molCF_{2}Cl_{2}.\frac{1molCCl_{4}}{1molCF_{2}Cl_{2}} .\frac{154gCCl_{4}}{1molCCl_{4}} =141gCCl_{4}

Explain why (CH3)2CHCH(Br)CH2CH3 reacts faster than (CH3)2CHCH2CH(Br)CH3 in an E2 reaction, even though both alkyl halides are 2
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The major and minor products formed from the first structure have more alkyl groups on the C═C than those formed from the second structure.

The second structure has more hydrogens attached to the β carbons than the first structure.

Explanation:

It is possible to explain the reaction based on Zaitsev’s rule that states that an elimination will normally lead to the most stable alkene as the major product.  This normally translates to it giving the most substituted alkene.

The two adjacent carbons in the first molecule are secondary. That means the two products will produce a disubstituted alkene but in the second molecule just one product will be disubstituted. Thus:

The first structure has more hydrogens attached to the β carbons than the second structure. <em>FALSE</em>. If the structure has more hydrogens will produce an alkene less stable.

The major and minor products formed from the first structure have more alkyl groups on the C═C than those formed from the second structure. <em>TRUE</em>. As the first structure have more alkyl groups the product is most stable.

The major and minor products formed from the second structure have more alkyl groups on the C═C than those formed from the first structure. <em>FALSE</em>. Is the opposite of the last option.

The second structure has more hydrogens attached to the β carbons than the first structure. <em>TRUE</em>. As the second structure has more hydrogens, the alkenes produced will be less substituted being less stable.

I hope it helps!
