Answer:

diastereomers

Explanation:

Enantiomers are optical isomers that are mirror images of each other. Enantiomers can not be separated by physical methods because the both compounds have almost the same physical properties such as melting points, boiling points, etc. This makes it difficult to separate enanatiomers by conventional methods.

A common method of separating enantiomers is by converting them into diasteromers which are easily separated since diasteromers often have different chemical and physical properties.

Suppose a compound is involved in three different reactions denoted R1, R2, and R3. Tripling the concentration of this reactant

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The order of reaction is as follows, R1 = 1; R2 = 2; R3 = 0

Explanation:

The rate of a chemical reaction is the number of moles of reactants consumed per unit time or the number of moles of products formed per unit. the rate of a chemical reaction is affected by the concentration of reactants

The relationship between the rate of a chemical reaction and the concentration of its reactants is given by the rate law or equation.

Generally, the rate equation is given as;

Rate = k[A]ᵃ[B]ᵇ..., where k = rate constant which is independent of concentration of the reactants, [A] = concentration of reactant A, a = order of reaction A, [B] = concentration of reaction B, b = order of reaction B.

For the given reactions R1, R2 and R3

For R1; rate = 3, Concentration = 3[A]

3 = k[A]3ˣ

3¹ = k[A]3ˣ

Since rate is proportional to concentration, therefore, the order of reaction, x = 1

For R2; rate = 9, Concentration = 3[A]

9 = k[A]3ˣ

3² = k[A]3ˣ

Since rate is proportional to concentration, therefore, the order of reaction, x = 2

For R1; rate = 1, Concentration = 3[A]

1 = k[A]3ˣ

3⁰ = k[A]3ˣ

Since rate is proportional to concentration, therefore, the order of reaction, x = 0

Therefore, the order of reaction is as follows, R1 = 1; R2 = 2; R3 = 0

How to solve 5gNaCl= MolE NaCl

valentinak56 [21]

0.086mole

Explanation:

The problem is very simple. It involves conversion from mass to number of moles of NaCl

What is mole?

A mole is a unit of measuring chemical substances. It is the amount that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

How is it related and can be converted from mass;

Number of moles of a substance = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

Since we know the mass, we can find the molar mass and put into this equation;

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Number of moles of NaCl = $\frac{5}{58.5} =$ 0.086mole

How many moles are in 25 g KMnO4

Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.158 moles KMnO4

Explanation:

According to the Periodic Table,

K = 39.10 g/mol

Mn = 54.94 g/mol

O = 16.00 g/mol

KMnO4 = 39.10 g/mol + 54.94 g/mol + 4(16.00 g/mol) = 158.04 g/mol

25.0 grams KMnO4 1 mole

----------------------------- x -------------------------- = 0.158 moles KMnO4

158.04 grams
