Answer:
Whenever the two groups on each end of a carbon-carbon double bond are the same, two diastereomers are possible.
Explanation:
Double bonds are formed when four electrons are shared between two carbon atoms. The second bond is generally known as a pi-bond while the first bond is called a sigma bond.
The presence of a double bond in a compound leads to restricted rotation about the carbon-carbon double bond. Hence the substituents are 'locked' in a particular configuration.
The more substituted a double bond is, the more stable it is according to Saytzeff's Rule.
Due to steric effects, trans alkenes are generally more thermodynamically stable than cis alkenes since trans alkenes have bulky groups oriented apart from each other.
All these are true statements. The answer selected must be the untrue statement.
Answer:
a) decrease
b) increase
c) decrease
Explanation:
a) The density of water <u>decreases</u> as water changes from liquid to steam.
The density of substances are higher when their molecules are very close to each other having strongest bonding forces. When water is change from liquid to steam it means water molecules are not close to each other as they are in liquid state because now water is changed into gaseous form and molecules are further apart from each other. Thus, density goes to decrease.
b) As the temperature increases, the rate of diffusion of a gas<u> increase.</u>
As temperature increases molecules gets more kinetic energy and rate of diffusion increases.
c) At constant volume, if the temperature of a gas is decreases, its pressure <u>decreases.</u>
According to Gay-Lussac Law,
The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.
Mathematical relationship:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
As temperature decreases its pressure also goes to decrease and vice versa.
Answer:
What is this? I am confused.
Explanation:
Answer:
Rate depends on the rate constant. The rate constant depends on temperature and activation energy. If you have lower activation energy the rate will be higher. This is why catalysts are added since catalysts provide an alternate pathway that requires lower activation energy and catalysts are added to increase the rate of reaction.
Explanation:
This is only the answer if you were asking:
"Which corresponds to the faster rate: a mechanism with a small activation energy or one with a large activation energy?"
Thats what I understood about your question.
