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

72. how is it possible to recognize the end point of a titration?

Alla [95]

When the solution used begins to change color and stays the new color for at least 30 seconds we are able to tell that the solution has reached the end point of titration

The decomposition of nitrogen dioxide to nitrogen monoxide and oxygen gas is a second order process as suspected in the previous

lesya [120]

Explanation:

For the given reaction $2NO_{2} \rightarrow 2NO + O_{2}$

Now, expression for half-life of a second order reaction is as follows.

$t_{1/2} = \frac{1}{[A_{0}]k}$ ....... (1)

Second half life of this reaction will be $t_{1/4}$ . So, expression for this will be as follows.

$t_{1/4}$ = $\frac{1}{k} [\frac{1}{[A]_{f}} - \frac{1}{[A_{0}]}]$ ...(2)

where $[A]_{f}$ is the final concentration that is, $\frac{[A]_{0}}{4}$ here and $[A]_{i}$ is the initial concentration.

Hence, putting these values into equation (2) formula as follows.

$t_{1/4}$ = $\frac{1}{k} [\frac{4}{[A]_{0}} - \frac{1}{[A_{0}]}]$

= $\frac{3}{[A_{0}]k}$ ...... (3)

Now, dividing equation (3) by equation (1) as follows.

$\frac{t_{1/4}}{t_{1/2}}$ = $\frac{3}{[A_{0}]k} \times [A_{0}]k$

= 3

or, $t_{1/4}$ = 3 $t_{1/2}$

Thus, we can conclude that one would expect the second half-life of this reaction to be three times the first half-life of this reaction.

What do elements in a group on the periodic table have in common?

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Explanation:

The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons. They are the electrons involved in chemical bonds with other elements. Every element in the first column (group one) has one electron in its outer shell.
