Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

A Grignard reagent is an alkyl magnesium halide. If it reacts with ethyl formate, an intermediate is formed as shown.

This intermediate can undergo water hydrolysis to form a diol, ethanol and MgBrOH.

Oxidation of the diol obtained now yields the corresponding alkanal which in this case is ethanal.

The scheme of the reaction is shown in the image attached to this answer.

620 mL of nitrogen at standard pressure is compressed into a 480 mL container. What is the new pressure in kPa?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

c. 131 kPa

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the relationship between volume and pressure is inversely proportional, based on the Boyle's law:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Considering that the standard pressure is 101.325 kPa, we can compute the final pressure as shown below:

P_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}=\frac{620mL*101.325kPa}{480mL}\\\\P_2=131kPa

Therefore, the answer is c. 131 kPa .

Best regards!!

Which of the following statements regarding spontaneous changes is false?A. Spontaneity is favored when heat is released.B. Spon
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A spontaneous reaction is defined as the process which tends to occur on its own. And, a non-spontaneous reaction is defined as a process for the completion of which we have to provide certain conditions.

For example, ice melting at 25^{o}C is spontaneous primarily due to the increase in molecular disorder (dispersal of matter). Also, melting of ice is taking place on its own without any external force.

It is not necessary that all exothermic reactions will be exothermic in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement all exothermic reactions are spontaneous, is false.
