how is substitution reaction in alkanes different from dehydrogenation reaction since both involve removing a hydrogen atom from

the molecule?

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

A substitution reaction means the replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms in an alkane by another atom or group. It does not introduce a double bond into the product. The product retains single bonds between the species present.

For instance;

CH4 + Cl2 -------> CH3Cl +HCl

is a substitution reaction

Dehydrogenation is the process of removing two hydrogen atoms from a saturated compound compound thereby yielding an unsaturated product.

E.g

C2H6 --------->C2H4 + H2

The key difference is that substitution reaction yields a saturated product while dehydrogenation yields an unsaturated product.

Answer:

The net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is -470.4 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Step 1 : Calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide

CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow

             C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_1=-414 kJ..[1]

Step 2 : Acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid

6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCOOH(g),\Delta H_2=132 kJ..[2]

Using Hess's law:

[1] × 6 + [2]

6CaC_2(s)+16H_2O(g)+3CO_2\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCOOH(g)+6Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_3=?

\Delta H_3=6\times \Delta H_1+\Delta H_2

\Delta H_3=6\times (-414 kJ)+132 kJ=-2352 kJ

The energy released on formation of 5 moles of acrylic acid = -2352 kJ

The energy released on formation of 1 moles of acrylic acid :

=\frac{-2352 kJ}{5 mol}=-470.4 kJ/mol

Hence, the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is -470.4 kJ/mol.

Plz help I need to bring up my grade, this will help bring up my grade !!!!!!!
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

WHY: You can abbreviate an element's electron configuration using the noble gas notation method because when you get down to the lower elements, specifically the d's and the f's, the electron configuration will be very long. The noble gas notation method is a faster answer while also being correct.

HOW: We can abbreviate an element's electron configuration by finding the last noble gas a specific element passed, for example calcium would have just passed Argon. Once you have the "address" of the previous noble gas, then you add on the difference between the element chosen and the noble gas, for example calcium would be [Ar] 4s^2.

Suppose a new group 5A element is discovered. Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) reveals that its last two peaks occur at 1370 kJ/
iren2701 [21]

Answer: The average valence electron energy (AVEE) of this element =

1014.2 KJ/ mol  or  1.0142mJ/mol.

Explanation:

The average valence electron energy =  (number of electrons in s subshell  x  Ionization energy of that subshell) + (number of electrons in p subshell  x  Ionization energy of that subshell) / total number of electrons in both subshells of the valence shells.

The 5A elements are non-metals like Nitrogen and Phosphorus with the metallic character increasing as you go down the group, So a new 5A element will have characteristics of its group with 5 valence electron in its outermost shell represented as ns2 np3

Therefore  the average valence electron energy (AVEE) of this element will be calculated as

The average valence electron energy = (2 x 1370  kJ/mol + 3 x 777 kJ/mol.) / 5

2740+2331/ 5 =5071/5

=1014.2 KJ/ mol  or  1.0142mJ/mol.

Which element would have the lowest electronegativity? (1 point)
irinina [24]

The element that will have the lowest electronegativity is an element with a small number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius.

Electronegativity of an element is the ability or power of that element in a molecule to attract electrons to its Valence electrons.  The following are the properties of electronegativity:

  • It increases across a period from left to right of the periodic table,
  • It decreases down the periodic table groups
  • Group 1 elements are the least (lowest) electronegative elements. These elements have the lowest valence electrons with a large atomic radius.
  • Group 7 elements are the most electronegative elements.

Atomic radius of elements increase down a group because of a progressive increase in the number of shells occupied by electrons which increases the size. But it decreases across a period because electrons are accommodated within the same shell leading to greater attraction by the protons in the nucleus.
