The velocity of a car changes from 10 m/s east to 30 m/s east in 4 seconds.
1 answer:
Answer:
5m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 10m/s due east
Final velocity = 30m/s due east
Time = 4s
Unknown:
Acceleration of the car = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
Mathematically;
Acceleration =
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Insert the parameters and solve;
Acceleration = = 5m/s²

Answer:
Product: ethyl L-valinate
Explanation:
If we want to understand what it is the molecule produced we have to an<u>alyze the reagents</u>. We have valine an <u>amino acid</u>, in this kind of compounds we have an <em>amine group</em> () and a <em>carboxylic acid</em> group (
). Additionally, we have an <u>alcohol </u>(
) in the presence of HCl (a <u>strong acid</u>) in the first step, and a base (
).
When we have an acid and an alcohol in a vessel we will have an <u>esterification reaction</u>. In other words, an ester is produced. As the <em>first step,</em> the oxygen in the C=O (in the carboxylic acid group) would be protonated. In the <em>second step</em>, the ethanol attacks the carbon in the C=O of the carboxylic acid group producing a new bond between the oxygen in the ethanol and the carbon in the carboxylic acid. In <em>step 3</em>, a proton is transferred to produce a better leaving group (). In <em>step 4</em>, a water molecule leaves the main structure to produce again the double bond C=O. <em>Finally</em>, a base (
) removes the hydrogen from the C=O bond to produce ethyl L-valinate
