Answer:

2,3–dimethylpentane

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, we shall determine the name of the compound.

To obtain the name of the compound, do the following:

1. Determine the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

2. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

3. Locate the position of the substituent group by giving it the lowest possible count.

4. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.

Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:

1. The longest continuous carbon chain is 5. Thus, the parent name of the compound is pentane.

2. The substituent group attached is methyl (–CH₃)

3. There are two methyl group attached to the compound. One is located at carbon 2 and the other at carbon 3.

4. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

2,3–dimethylpentane

None of the options are correct.

Delta S reaction= Delta S products- Delta S reactants

don't forget to mulitiply by coefficients

also

here is a really slow way to do it

you know the moles of gas increased

so Delta S is positive

so its B or D

then just do the units digit to see which one match up

Determine the rate law, including the values of the orders and rate law constant, for the following reaction using the experimen

olga55 [171]

Answer: Rate law= $k[A]^1[B]^2$ , order with respect to A is 1, order with respect to B is 2 and total order is 3. Rate law constant is $3L^2mol^{-2}s^{-1}$

Explanation: Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$Rate=k[A]^x[B]^y$
