Base your answer on the information below. The hydrocarbon 2-methylpropane reacts with iodine as represented by the balanced equ

ation below. At standard pressure, the boiling point of 2-methylpropane is lower than the boiling point of 2-iodo-2-methylpropane. Explain the difference in the boiling points of 2-methylpropane and 2-iodo-2-methylpropane in terms of both molecular polarity and intermolecular forces.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The boiling point of a substance is affected by the nature of bonding in the molecule as well as the nature of intermolecular forces between molecules of the substance.

2-methylpropane has only pure covalent and nonpolar C-C and C-H bonds. As a result of this, the molecule is nonpolar and the only intermolecular forces present are weak dispersion forces. Therefore, 2-methylpropane has a very low boiling point.

As for 2-iodo-2-methylpropane, there is a polar C-I bond. This now implies that the intermolecular forces present are both dispersion forces and dipole interaction. As a result of the presence of stronger dipole interaction between 2-iodo-2-methylpropane molecules, the compound has a higher boiling point than  2-methylpropane.

Increasing the concentration of a reactant shifts the position of a chemical equilibrium towards formation of more products. wha
Natalija [7]
<h2>The required "option is e)".</h2>

Explanation:

  • The Rate of formation of products depends on the concentration of reactants or the forward reaction increases on increasing the rate of the concentration.
  • There is no effect on the equilibrium rate when the concentration of reactants and products is constant.
  • Forward reaction slows down when the reactant concentration is decreased.
  • On increasing the amount or concentration of reactant the chemical  equilibrium shifts towards formation of more products.
  • Hence, the forward reaction speeds up.

Question 1 of 25<br> Which sentence describes energy?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

energy is the capability or ability to do work

Explanation:

An object that possesses energy can exert a force on another object. When this happens, energy is transferred from the former to the latter. The second object may move as it receives energy and therefore does some work. Thus, the first object had the capacity to do work.

A scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, Na3PO4, for a laboratory experiment. How many grams of Na3PO4
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

83.20 g of Na3PO4

Explanation:

1 mole of Na3PO4 contains 3 moles of Na+.

Mole of Na ion to be prepared = Molarity x volume

                 = 0.700 x 725/1000

                     = 0.5075 mole

If 1 mole of Na3PO4 contains 3 moles of Na ion, then 0.5075 Na ion will be contained in:

           0.5075/3 x 1 = 0.1692 mole of Na3PO4

mole of Na3PO4 = mass/molar mass = 0.1692

Hence, mass of Na3PO4 = 0.1692 x molar mass

                                     = 0.1692 x 163.94

                                        = 83.20 g.

83.20 g of Na3PO4 will be needed.

At a given temperature, 2.6 atm of h2 and 3.14 atm of cl2 are mixed and allowed to come to equilibrium. the equilibrium pressure
Keith_Richards [23]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>Given:

H2 = </span><span>2.6 atm
CL2 = 3.14 atm</span>

 

<span>
pressure H2 = 2.6 - x 
pressure Cl2 = 3.14 - x 
<span>pressure HBr = 2x = 1.13

x = 1.13 / 2 = 0.565 

<span>pressure H2 = 2.6 - 0.565 = 2.035
pressure Br2 = 3.14 - 0.565 = 2.575 

Kp = (1.13)^2 / 2.035 x 2.575</span></span></span>

 

= 1.2769 / (5.240125)

= 0.24367739319195629875241525726963

= 0.244

<span>Therefore, the Kp for the reaction at the given temperature is 0.244.

To add, </span>the hypothetical pressure of a gas if it alone occupied the whole volume of the original mixture at the same temperature is called the partial pressure or Kp.
