Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

When determining the chemical properties of elements, the most important subatomic particle to consider is the electrons.

Electrons are negatively charged particles that orbits an atom. They occupy the extranuclear space of an atom.

These electrons determines the chemical properties of each atom. Most especially, the valence ones. All elements wants to resemble the noble gases, so they alter their number of electrons in order to attain this stable state.

A flask contains 0.83mol of neon gas at a temperature of 35°C. The pressure gauge indicates 0.37atm inside the flask. What is th

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: 5.66 dm3

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of neon gas = ?

Temperature T = 35°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(35°C + 273 = 308K)

Pressure P = 0.37 atm

Number of moles N = 0.83 moles

Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.0082 ATM dm3 K-1 mol-1

Then, apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

0.37atm x V = 0.83 moles x 0.0082 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 308K

0.37 atm x V = 2.096 atm dm3

V = (2.096 atm dm3 / 0.37atm)

V = 5.66 dm3

Thus, the volume of the neon gas is 5.66 dm3

Calculate the pH at the equivalence point for the titration of 0.110 M methylamine (CH3NH2) with 0.110 M HCl. The Kb of methylam

nikklg [1K]

The reaction between the reactants would be:

CH₃NH₂ + HCl ↔ CH₃NH₃⁺ + Cl⁻

Let the conjugate acid undergo hydrolysis. Then, apply the ICE approach.

CH₃NH₃⁺ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + CH₃NH₂
I 0.11 0 0
C -x +x +x
E 0.11 - x x x

Ka = [H₃O⁺][CH₃NH₂]/[CH₃NH₃⁺]

Since the given information is Kb, let's find Ka in terms of Kb.

Ka = Kw/Kb, where Kw = 10⁻¹⁴

So,
Ka = 10⁻¹⁴/5×10⁻⁴ = 2×10⁻¹¹ = [H₃O⁺][CH₃NH₂]/[CH₃NH₃⁺]
2×10⁻¹¹ = [x][x]/[0.11-x]
Solving for x,
x = 1.483×10⁻⁶ = [H₃O⁺]

Since pH = -log[H₃O⁺],
pH = -log(1.483×10⁻⁶)
<em>pH = 5.83</em>

There are four different starting molecules that one might use to synthesize the illustrated alkyl halide as the major product u

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

An electrophilic addition reaction occurs when an electrophile attacks a substrate, with the end result being the inclusion of one or many comparatively straightforward molecules along with multiple bonds.

In the given question, the hydrogen bromide provides the electrophile while the bromide is the nucleophile. The mechanism proceeds with the attack of the electrophile on the carbon, followed by deprotonation. This process is continued with a formation of carbocation and the bromide(nucleophile) finally bonds to the carbocation to form a stable product.

The first diagram showcases the possible various starting molecules for the synthesis while the second diagram illustrates their mechanism.
