Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

Atomic size is the amount of space between the nucleus of an atom and the outermost electron. So, as each additional energy level is added, the overall amount of space between the nucleus and the outermost electron increases because there is now an extra shell of electrons that is farther out.

Need help asap with this chemistry if someone could help me

Burka [1]

Answer:

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

Structure Number Two would likely be the most stable structure.

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

The N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion. See explanation.

Explanation:

When calculating the formal charge for an atom, the assumption is that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally between the two bonding atoms. The formula for the formal charge of an atom can be written as:

$\text{Formal Charge} \\ = \text{Number of Valence Electrons in Element} \\ \phantom{=}-\text{Number of Chemical Bonds} \\\phantom{=} - \text{Number of nonbonding Lone Pair Electrons}$ .

For example, for the N atom in structure one of the first question,

N is in IUPAC group 15. There are 15 - 10 = 5 valence electrons on N.
This N atom is connected to only 1 chemical bond.
There are three pairs, or 6 electrons that aren't in a chemical bond.

The formal charge of this N atom will be $5 - 1 - 6 = -2$ .

Apply this rule to the other atoms. Note that a double bond counts as two bonds while a triple bond counts as three.

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

In general, the formal charge on all atoms in a molecule or an ion shall be as close to zero as possible. That rules out Structure number one.

Additionally, if there is a negative charge on one of the atoms, that atom shall preferably be the most electronegative one in the entire molecule. O is more electronegative than N. Structure two will likely be favored over structure three.

Similarly,

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

Assuming that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally (which is likely not the case,) the nitrogen atom in this molecule will carry a positive charge. By that assumption, it would attract an anion.

Note that in reality this assumption seldom holds. In this ion, the N-H bond is highly polarized such that the partial positive charge is mostly located on the H atom bonded to the N atom. This example shows how the formal charge assumption might give misleading information. However, for the sake of this particular problem, the N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion.

Draw the major organic substitution product(s) for (2R,3S)-2-bromo-3-methylpentane reacting with the given nucleophile. Indicate

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The final product of the reaction is (<em>2S,3S</em>)-2-ethoxy-3-methylpentane.

Explanation:

The given reaction undergoes $S_{N}2$ mechanism in which the nucleophile attacks the backside and it is substituted by the elimination of bromine.

Due to the backside attack of nucleophile , the inverse in stereo-chemistry is observed.

After the substitution of ethoxy group, the configuration is assigned according to the priority it shows clock wise direction(R) - configuration.

When hydrogen faces the front side , it results shows inverse configuration i.e, S- configuration.

The chemical reaction is as follows.

Find the no. of atoms present in 40g of nitrogen gas at STP?

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

8.60 * $10^{23}$ atoms N2

Explanation:

We want to convert grams to moles and then moles to atoms.

First, we convert grams of nitrogen gas (which is N2) to moles. To do so, we need the molar mass of N2, which is just 14.01 * 2 = 28.02 g.

40 g N2 * $\frac{1 mol N2}{28.02 g N2}$ = 1.43 mol N2

Now, we need to convert moles to atoms by using Avogadro's number, which is $6.022*10^{23}$ :

1.43 mol N2 * $\frac{6.022*10^{23} atoms N2 }{1 mol N2}$ = 8.60 * $10^{23}$ atoms N2

Thus, the answer is 8.60 * $10^{23}$ atoms N2.
