Answer:

The most stable conformer would be the anti-conformer when the substituent methyl groups are farthest away from each other.

Explanation:

Isomers are chemical compounds with the same molecular formula but with different molecular structures.

Conformers are a special type of isomers that produce different structures when the substituents of a Carbon-Carbon single bond (C-C) are rotated.

In 2,3 dimethyl butane, the substituent methyl groups are located around the second and third Carbon to Carbon single bond.

To achieve a stable configuration, the methyl group substituents need to be as far apart as possible (that is, in an anti-position) to minimise repulsion.

The closer the methyl groups are to each other, the more they repel each other and the more unstable the conformer becomes.

What is the molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of sodium carbonate-10-water is dissolved in water and made up to 250.0 cm
disa [49]

We have to know the molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is dissolved in water and made up to 250 cm³ solution.

The molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of sodium carbonate-10-water (Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O)  is dissolved in water and made up to 250.0 cm^3 solutionis: (A) 0.08 mol dm⁻³

The molarit y of solution means the number of moles of solute present in one litre of solution. Here solute is Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O and solvent is water. Volume of solution is 250 cm³.

Molar mass of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is 286 grams which means mass of one mole of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is 286 grams.

5.71 grams of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is equal to \frac{5.71}{286}= 0.0199 moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O. So, 0.0199 moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O present in 250 cm³ volume of solution.

Hence, number of moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O present in one litre (equal to 1000 cm³) of solution is \frac{0.0199 X 1000}{250} = 0.0796 moles. So, the molarity of the solution is 0.0796 mol/dm³ ≅ 0.08 mol/dm³

When the concentration of A in the reaction A ..... B was changed from 1.20 M to 0.60 M, the half-life increased from 2.0 min to
Reika [66]

Answer:

2

0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

Explanation:

Half-life

{t_{1/2}}A=2\ \text{min}

{t_{1/2}}B=4\ \text{min}

Concentration

{[A]_0}_A=1.2\ \text{M}

{[A]_0}_B=0.6\ \text{M}

We have the relation

t_{1/2}\propto \dfrac{1}{[A]_0^{n-1}}

So

\dfrac{{t_{1/2}}_A}{{t_{1/2}}_B}=\left(\dfrac{{[A]_0}_B}{{[A]_0}_A}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{4}=\left(\dfrac{0.6}{1.2}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}

Comparing the exponents we get

1=n-1\\\Rightarrow n=2

The order of the reaction is 2.

t_{1/2}=\dfrac{1}{k[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{t_{1/2}[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2\times 1.2^{2-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

The rate constant is 0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

An 11.75 g sample of a common hydrate of cobalt(ii) chloride is heated. after heating, 9.25 g of anhydrous cobalt chloride remai
Irina-Kira [14]
Hydrated salts are when salt crystals have water molecules bound. Anhydrous salts are when the water has been removed.
mass of water removed = hydrated salt - anhydrate salt 
                                       = 11.75 g - 9.25 g = 2.50 g
number of water moles  = 2.50 g / 18 g/mol = 0.139 mol 
number of cobalt (II) chloride moles = 9.25 g / 130 g/mol = 0.0712 mol 
ratio of water moles to CoCl₂ moles - 0.139 mol / 0.0712 mol = 1.95 
rounded off 2 moles of water for every 1 mol of CoCl₂
formula - CoCl₂.2H₂O
name - Cobalt(II) chloride dihydrate
