Answer:

Explanation:

In an acid-catalyzed epoxide ring-opening reaction, there is a formation of two intermediate in the reaction. The first stage involves the protonation of oxygen in the epoxide. The stage is followed by the attraction of water molecules onto the more substituted carbon atom in the epoxide ring. The stepwise reaction mechanism can be seen in the image attached below.

Do you notice a pattern in the charge for elements in each group? Explain.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Below are some patterns in the charge for elements in each group.

Group 1 elements : 1 valence electron and form ions with charge +1

Group 2 elements : 2 valence electrons and form ions with charge + 2

Group 3 elements : 3 valence electrons and form ions with charge + 3(there are some exceptions as well)

Elements in groups 4 and 5 are unpredictable also the D block elements consist of multiple oxidation states..

Group 6 elements : 6 valence electrons, form ions with charge -2

Group 7 elements: 7 valence electrons, form ions with charge -1  

The octet rule is being followed, the elements form either ionic bond or covalent bond to fulfill it.

eg: when a K atom forms a K+ ion, the ion has the same electron configuration as the noble gas Ar (argon).

When an O atom gains 2 electrons to form the O²⁻ ion, the ion has the same electron configuration as the noble gas Ne (neon).  

Note: Boron (B) is in Group 3 but doesn't form ions.

What is the energy change if 84.0 g of calcium oxide (CaO) reacts with excess water in the following reaction?
pochemuha
   The energy change  if 84.0 g   of CaO  react  with  excess  water is  98KJ of heat is released.

calculation
heat  =  number of moles  x  delta H

delta H = - 65.2  Kj/mol

first find the number of  moles  of  CaO reacted

moles = mass/molar mass
the molar mass  of CaO =  40 +  16=  56 g/mol
mass = 84 g
moles therefore = 84 g/56 g/mol =1.5 moles

Heat is therefore =  1.5 moles  x -65.2 = - 97.8 Kj = -98 Kj

  since  sign is  negative  the   energy  is released
