Answer:

The order of reactivity towards electrophilic susbtitution is shown below:

a. anisole > ethylbenzene>benzene>chlorobenzene>nitrobenzene

b. p-cresol>p-xylene>toluene>benzene

c.Phenol>propylbenzene>benzene>benzoic acid

d.p-chloromethylbenzene>p-methylnitrobenzene> 2-chloro-1-methyl-4-nitrobenzene> 1-methyl-2,4-dinitrobenzene

Explanation:

Electron donating groups favor the electrophilic substitution reactions at ortho and para positions of the benzene ring.

For example: -OH, -OCH3, -NH2, Alkyl groups favor electrophilic aromatic substitution in benzene.

The -I (negative inductive effect) groups, electron-withdrawing groups deactivate the benzene ring towards electrophilic aromatic substitution.

Examples: -NO2, -SO3H, halide groups, Carboxylic acid groups, carbonyl gropus.

Which energy source produces carbon dioxide?

HACTEHA [7]

The answer is d. natural gas. All the other choices are alternative sources of energy, and do not produce or emit any greenhouse gas such as carbon dioxide (CO2). Natural gas, on the other hand, is an organic substance containing a significant amount of carbon, that when burned for fuel, results in the emission of CO2.

Determine the number of grams of carbon dioxide that can be formed from 0.500 grams of iron oxide and an excess of carbon.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 0.2066 grams of CO₂ are formed from 0.500 grams of iron oxide and an excess of carbon.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

2 Fe₂O₃ + 3 C → 4 Fe + 3 CO₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

Fe₂O₃: 2 moles
C: 3 moles
Fe:4 moles
CO₂: 3 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

Fe₂O₃: 159.7 g/mole
C: 12 g/mole
Fe: 55.85 g/mole
CO₂: 44 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

Fe₂O₃: 2 moles ×159.7 g/mole= 319.4 grams
C: 3 moles ×12 g/mole= 36 grams
Fe: 4 moles ×55.85 g/mole= 223.4 grams
CO₂: 3 moles ×44 g/mole= 132 grams

<h3>Mass of CO₂ formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 319.4 grams of Fe₂O₃ form 132 grams of CO₂, 0.500 grams of Fe₂O₃ form how much mass of CO₂?

$mass of CO_{2} =\frac{0.500 grams of Fe_{2}O_{3}x132 grams of CO_{2} }{319.4 grams of Fe_{2}O_{3}}$

<u><em>mass of CO₂= 0.2066 grams</em></u>

Then, 0.2066 grams of CO₂ are formed from 0.500 grams of iron oxide and an excess of carbon.

Which of the following bonds is the most polar in nature:

dimaraw [331]

The answer will be (4) HI because the greater the difference of the bonds in electronegativity, the more polar a bond is.

What is the energy change that will occur when 25.5 grams of oxygen gas (O2) react with excess methane (CH4) according to the re

AysviL [449]

Amount of CH4 is excess, so no need to worry about it
<span>but the limiting factor is the Oxygen </span>

<span>according to stranded equation, </span>

<span>CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O ΔH = -889 kJ/mol </span>

<span>just by taking proportions </span>

<span>(-889 kJ/mol) / 2 x 0.8 mol = - 355.6 kJ </span>

<span>so i think the answer is (a)</span>
