Acetonitrile refers to the chemical compound exhibiting the formula CH₃CN. It is the basic organic nitrile and a colorless liquid. It is generated primarily as a byproduct of acrylonitrile production. It is used as a polar aprotic solvent in the purification of butadiene and in organic synthesis.
The addition of water to cyanides generates amines and acids. Acetonitrile produces ammonia and acetic acid.
CH₃CN (acetonitrile) → CH₃COOH (acetic acid) + NH₃ (ammonia)
Answer: ΔH for the reaction is -277.4 kJ
Explanation:
The balanced chemical reaction is,
The expression for enthalpy change is,
![\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H(products)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H(reactant)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5Csum%20%5Bn%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%28products%29%5D-%5Csum%20%5Bn%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%28reactant%29%5D)
![\Delta H=[(n_{CCl_4}\times \Delta H_{CCl_4})+(n_{HCl}\times B.E_{HCl}) ]-[(n_{CH_4}\times \Delta H_{CH_4})+n_{Cl_2}\times \Delta H_{Cl_2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5B%28n_%7BCCl_4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_%7BCCl_4%7D%29%2B%28n_%7BHCl%7D%5Ctimes%20B.E_%7BHCl%7D%29%20%5D-%5B%28n_%7BCH_4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_%7BCH_4%7D%29%2Bn_%7BCl_2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_%7BCl_2%7D%5D)
where,
n = number of moles
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get
![\Delta H=[(1\times -139)+(1\times -92.31) ]-[(1\times -74.87)+(1\times 121.0]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5B%281%5Ctimes%20-139%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20-92.31%29%20%5D-%5B%281%5Ctimes%20-74.87%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20121.0%5D)
Therefore, the enthalpy change for this reaction is, -277.4 kJ

Answer:
<u>During Metaphase</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
During Metaphase the cell chromosome align themselves in the middle of the cell.This occur due to a cellular process called "Tug of War".
The chromosome which have been replicated and joined at the central point called centromere are called sister chromatids
Prior to metaphase , Kinetochore type of protein are formed around the centromere. Long protein filament called kinetochore are extended from poles to other end of the cell attached to kinetochore.
Therse is important checkpoint in the middle of mitosis called<u> metaphase.</u>
At this point cell ensure that , it is ready to divide or not.
Once the cell ensure that everything is ready to divide. Only after then , yhe cell enters the fourth phase called <u>anaphase.</u>
