This statement is true. The rate of the reaction is measured by how fast a reactant is used up, or how fast a product is formed. This all tie's into the usage of energy.

What is the total number of oxygen atoms represented in the formula na2c03.10h2o?

Wewaii [24]

As per the given chemical formula- Na2CO3.10H2O, one mole of the chemical compound contains 13 moles of oxygen atoms. Hence

Number of moles of oxygen atoms in one mole of Na2CO3.10H2O = 13

number of moles of oxygen atoms in 0.2 moles of Na2CO3.10H2O = 13 X 0.2 = 2.6

Now, one mole of a substance contains 6.022 X 10^23 particles of the substance. Thus

number of atoms of oxygen in one mole of oxygen atom = 6.022 X 10^23

number of moles of oxygen atoms in 2.6 moles of oxygen atoms = 2.6 X 6.022 X 10^23 = 15.657 X 10^23

= 1.566 X 10^24

Thus, there are 1.566 X 10^24 atoms of oxygen in 0.2 moles of Na2CO3.10H2O.

Answer and Explanation:

Epoxide is a three membered ring made up of two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Epoxides are cyclic ethers. Due to its ring size, it is highly strained and very reactive. Epoxide ring opening takes place with respect to addition of acid and base.

Ring opening of epoxide with acid:

In the presence of base, the nucleophile attacks the epoxide ring at more substituted site and inverse stereochemistry takes place.(check file 2 attached)

Ring opening of epoxide with base:

The backside attack of nucleophile takes place in less substituted site and then it undergoes protonation to form a product.
