Answer:

None. Electrons are not in the nucleus.

Explanation:

We know that an atom consist of electrons, protons and neutrons. Neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus. Electron has a negative charge and is written as e⁻. The mass of electron is 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg . While mass of proton and neutron is 1.672623×10⁻²⁷Kg and 1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg respectively.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

The number of electron or number of protons are called atomic number while mass number of an atom is sum of protons and neutrons. The umber of protons and electrons are always equal to make the atom electrically neutral .

The atom having atomic number 16 have 16 electrons and these electrons are present out side the nucleus.

Calculate the standard reaction enthalpy for the reaction NO2(g) → NO(g) + O(g) given +142.7 kJ/mol for the standard enthalpy of

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The standard reaction enthalpy for the given reaction is 235.15 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

$O_2(g) \rightarrow \frac{2}{3}O_3(g),\Delta H^o_{1}=142.7 kJ/mol$ ..[1]

$O_2(g) \rightarrow 2 O(g),\Delta H^o_{2}=498.4 kJ/mol$ ..[2]

$NO(g) + O_3(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g) + O_2(g) ,\Delta H^o_{3} = -200 kJ/mol$ ..[3]

$NO_2(g)\rightarrow NO(g) + O(g),\Delta H^o_{4}=?$ ..[4]

Using Hess's law:

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

2 × [4] = [2]- (3 ) × [1] - (2) × [3]

$2\times \Delta H^o_{4}=\Delta H^o_{2} -3\times \Delta H^o_{1}-2\times \Delta H^o_{3}$

$2\times \Delta H^o_{4}=498.4 kJ/mol-3\times 142.7 kJ/mol-2\times -200 kJ/mol$

$2\times \Delta H^o_{4}=470.3 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H^o_{4}=\frac{470.3 kJ/mol}{2}=235.15 kJ/mol$

The standard reaction enthalpy for the given reaction is 235.15 kJ/mol.

Answer choices for the above question

Quesiton 5 says

Which of these inferences about the author’s point of view is best supported by the entire excerpt?

From: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" lesson

A. “She’s simply called HeLa, the code name given to the world’s first immortal human cells—her cells, cut from her cervix just months before she died.”

B. “I’ve spent years staring at that photo, wondering what kind of life she led, what happened to her children, and what she’d think about cells from her cervix living on forever—bought, sold, packaged, and shipped by the trillions to laboratories around the world.”

C. “One scientist estimates that if you could pile all HeLa cells ever grown onto a scale, they’d weigh more than 50 million metric tons—an inconceivable number, given that an individual cell weighs almost nothing.”

D. “All of the stories mentioned that scientists had begun doing research on Henrietta’s children, but the Lackses didn’t seem to know what that research was

Sodium borodeuteride is a commercially available reducing reagent that can convert aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding al

kupik [55]

Here we have to draw the mechanism of the reduction reaction between benzaldehyde and sodium borodeuteride to form the corresponding alcohol.

The reducing agent sodium borodeuteride can reduce the aldehydes to its corresponding alcohol. The reaction mechanism is shown in the attached image.

The reaction mechanism can be explained as-

The sodium borodeuteride is highly ionic in nature thus it remains as Na⁺ and BD₄⁻ The deuterium atom of BD₄⁻ attack the carbonyl carbon atom and substitute one of its deuterium as shown in the figure.

One molecule of sodium borodeuteride can reduce four molecules of benzaldehyde. The polar solvent like alcohol donates the proton as shown in the mechanism.

The converted alcohol contains the deuterium atom at the -C center. Thus benzaldehyde is converted to deuteroted benzyl alcohol.
