What is a chiral substance and an Achiral substance?

Chemistry
1 answer:
nika2105 [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The opposite of chiral is achiral.

Achiral objects are superimposable with their mirror images.

A Chiral molecule has a mirror image that cannot line up with it perfectly- the mirror images are non superimposable. The mirror images are called enantiomers

3. A 4.00 gram sample of solid gold was heated from 274K to 314K. How much energy was involved?
MrMuchimi
Q = mcΔT = (4.00 g)(0.129 J/g•°C)(40.85 °C - 0.85 °C)
Q = 20.6 J of energy was involved (more specifically, 20.6 J of heat energy was absorbed from the surroundings by the sample of solid gold).

For each pair of salts, determine which of the salts, if any, would be expected to be more soluble in acidic solution than in pu
gogolik [260]

Answer:

AgNO2

Explanation:

The question asks to know which of these two insoluble salts is expected to be more soluble in acidic solution than in pure water.

To answer this question specifically, we need to know if the anions contained in the insoluble salt is a conjugate of a weak acid or that of a weak base.

Generally, the solubility of insoluble salts that contain anions which are conjugates of weak acids increases in the presence of an acidic solution than in water. While, the solubility of insoluble salts that contain anions which are conjugates of strong acids decreases in the presence of an acidic solution.

Having said this, AgNO2 contains NO2 which is the conjugate base of the Trioxonitrate iii acid which is a weak acid. Hence, it is expected to be stronger in acidic solution than in water.

Write a balanced equation for the reaction of Na₂S and CdSO₄. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the ph
Luba_88 [7]

Explanation:

A chemical reaction equation that contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is known as a balanced chemical reaction equation.

For example, Na_{2}S(aq) + CdSO_{4}(aq) \rightarrow Na_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + CdS(s)

Here, number of reactant molecules are as follows.

Na = 2

S = 2

Cd = 1

O = 4

Number of product molecules are as follows.

Na = 2

S = 2

Cd = 1

O = 4

As there are already equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side. Hence, the reaction equation is balanced.

Also, in this reaction both Na_{2}S and CdSO_{4} are present as aqueous solution. And, CdS is the precipitate that is formed as it is the insoluble solid that forms.

Na_{2}SO_{4} is present in aqueous state.

Which Locations are likely to have subatomic particles with the GREATEST mass?
wlad13 [49]

2 and 3, because there are the protons and neutrons which have a greater mass than the electrons which are found in the locations 1 and 4.

Explanation:

The atom contains a nucleus, which is made from protons and neutrons, and electrons which are found around the nucleus.

The mass of the atoms is concentrated in the very tiny space represented by the nucleus. Of course the electrons have a mass too, but is very small compared to the protons and neutrons, and we usually neglect its mass.

5.4 When looking down the C{{TOP-HAT-MATH-TOKEN-0}}-C{{TOP-HAT-MATH-TOKEN-1}} bond in 2,3-dimethylbutane, what is the most stabl
AURORKA [14]

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.
